• Make sure to use the USB cable provided as a basic accessory.
• When connecting a USB cable, make sure that the icon on the cable
faces up. Connecting the cable in the wrong way may damage the
device.
• Make sure to use an LG-approved charger, battery and charging cable.
Charging the battery with a third-party charger may cause the battery
to explode or may damage the device.
• Using the device when it is charging may cause electric shock. To use
the device, stop charging.
• A charging adapter that supports fast charging is included with the
product. The fast charging feature may not function if a fast charging
adapter other than the genuine adaptor provided with the product is used.
• Remove the charger from the power socket after the device is fully
charged. This prevents unnecessary power consumption.
• Another way to charge the battery is by connecting a USB cable
between the device and a desktop or laptop computer. This may take a
longer time than charging the battery in the common way.
• Do not charge the battery by using a USB hub that is unable to
maintain the rated voltage. Charging may fail or unintentionally stop.
