Avoid damage to your hearing
To prevent possible hearing damage, do not listen at high volume levels
for long periods.
Damage to your hearing can occur if you are exposed to loud sound for long periods of
time. We therefore recommend that you do not turn on or off the handset close to your
ear. We also recommend that music and call volumes are set to a reasonable level.
• When using headphones, turn the volume down if you cannot hear the people
speaking near you, or if the person sitting next to you can hear what you are listening
to.
NOTE
• Excessive sound pressure from earphones and headphones can cause hearing
loss.
Glass Parts
Some parts of your mobile device are made of glass. This glass could break if your
mobile device is dropped on a hard surface or receives a substantial impact. If the glass
breaks, do not touch or attempt to remove it. Stop using your mobile device until the
glass is replaced by an authorised service provider.
Blasting area
Do not use the phone where blasting is in progress. Observe restrictions and follow any
regulations or rules.
Potentially explosive atmospheres
• Do not use your phone at a refueling point.
• Do not use near fuel or chemicals.
• Do not transport or store flammable gas, liquid or explosives in the same
compartment of your vehicle as your mobile phone or accessories.
In aircraft
Wireless devices can cause interference in aircraft.
• Turn your mobile phone off before boarding any aircraft.
• Do not use it on the ground without permission from the crew.
Children
Keep the phone in a safe place out of the reach of small children. It includes small
parts which may cause a choking hazard if detached.
Emergency calls
Emergency calls may not be available on all mobile networks. Therefore you should
never depend solely on your phone for emergency calls. Check with your local service
provider.
Battery information and care
• You do not need to completely discharge the battery before recharging. Unlike other
battery systems, there is no memory effect that could compromise the battery’s
performance.
• Use only LG batteries and chargers. LG chargers are designed to maximise the
battery life.
• Do not disassemble or short-circuit the battery.
• Keep the metal contacts of the battery clean.
• Replace the battery when it no longer provides acceptable performance. The battery
pack may be recharged hundreds of times before it needs replacing.
• Recharge the battery if it has not been used for a long time to maximise usability.
• Do not expose the battery charger to direct sunlight or use it in high humidity, such
as in the bathroom.
• Do not leave the battery in hot or cold places, as this may deteriorate battery
performance.
• There is risk of explosion if the battery is replaced with an incorrect type.
• Dispose of used batteries according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Please recycle
when possible. Do not dispose as household waste.
• If you need to replace the battery, take it to the nearest authorised LG Electronics
service point or dealer for assistance.
• Always unplug the charger from the wall socket after the phone is fully charged to
save unnecessary power consumption of the charger.
• Actual battery life will depend on network configuration, product settings, usage
patterns, battery and environmental conditions.
• Make sure that no sharp-edged items such as animal’s teeth or nails, come into
contact with the batter y. This could cause a fire.
Precautions for use of leather back cover
• This product is made of cattle hide and may have different creases and patterns due
to the properties of natural leather. If the product gets wet with any liquid )water, soda,
seawater, rain, sweat, sunscreen, cosmetics, moisture, etc.(, it may lose colour, change
colour, or deform in shape.
• When this product gets wet or contaminated, get rid of the water by pressing it gently
with a dry towel, or wipe it with leather cream and leave it to dry in shade. When
the product is exposed to a wet environment for a long time, it may cause creases
or mould. The shape of the leather may not be restored to its original state after
cleaning because of the properties of leather, and any contamination or deformity
may get worse when using regular detergent or an organic solvent.
• When the leather is wet with rain or sweat, use caution and avoid contact with clothes.
It can cause any dye to become a stain.
• Due to the nature of leather, friction for long periods of time or excessive force may
damage the surface of the leather.
NOTE
• Some illustrations and the back cover type may differ from your device
depending on the region, service provider without prior notice.
Guidelines for safe and efficient use
Please read these simple guidelines. Not following these guidelines may be dangerous
or illegal.
Should a fault occur, a software tool is built into your device that will gather a fault log.
This tool gathers only data specific to the fault, such as signal strength, cell ID position
in sudden call drop and applications loaded. The log is used only to help determine the
cause of the fault. These logs are encrypted and can only be accessed by an authorized
LG Repair centre should you need to return your device for repair.
Exposure to radio frequency energy
Radio wave exposure and Specific Absorption Rate )SAR( information.
This mobile phone model LG-H815L has been designed to comply with applicable
safety requirements for exposure to radio waves. These requirements are based on
scientific guidelines that include safety margins designed to assure the safety of all
persons, regardless of age and health.
• The radio wave exposure guidelines employ a unit of measurement known as the
Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. Tests for SAR are conducted using standardised
methods with the phone transmitting at its highest certified power level in all used
frequency bands.
• While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various LG phone models,
they are all designed to meet the relevant guidelines for exposure to radio waves.
• The SAR limit recommended by the International Commission on Non-Ionizing
Radiation Protection )ICNIRP( is 2 W/kg averaged over 10g of tissue.
• The highest SAR value for this model phone tested for use at the ear is 0.618 W/kg
)10g( and when worn on the body is 0.460 W/Kg )10g(.
• This device meets RF exposure guidelines when used either in the normal use
position against the ear or when positioned at least 1.5 cm away from the body. When
a carry case, belt clip or holder is used for body-worn operation, it should not contain
metal and should position the product at least 1.5 cm away from your body. In order
to transmit data files or messages, this device requires a quality connection to the
network. In some cases, transmission of data files or messages may be delayed until
such a connection is available. Ensure the above separation distance instructions are
followed until the transmission is completed.
