Additional Information

1. Radio frequency exposure

This

Bluetooth

LG Stereo Headset is a radio transmitter and receiver. When

in operation, it communicates with a

Bluetooth

equipped mobile device

by receiving and transmitting radio frequency (RF) electromagnetic fields

(microwaves) in the frequency range 2402 to 2480 MHz.

Your

Bluetooth

headset is designed to operate in compliance with the RF

exposure guidelines and limits set by national authorities and international

health agencies when used with any compatible LG Electronics mobile phone.

Bluetooth Connection Precautions

The following environments affect the range and reception of

Bluetooth

signals:

- When walls, metal, human bodies, or other obstacles exist between the

Bluetooth

device and the connected device.

- When equipment that uses 2.4 GHz frequency signals (Wireless LANs,

wireless phones, microwave ovens, etc.) is placed near the devices being used.

- When using a

Bluetooth

device (TV, laptop, etc.) other than the mobile

phone, the sound quality may be affected by the specifications and

performance of the device.

3. Potentially explosive atmosphere

Turn off your electronic device when in any area with a potentially

explosive atmosphere. It is rare, but your electronic device could generate

sparks. Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in

bodily injury or even death. Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere

are often, but not always, clearly marked.

4. Battery information

A rechargeable battery has a long service life if treated properly. A new

battery or one that has not been used for a long period of time could have

reduced capacity the first few times it is used. Do not expose the battery to

extreme temperatures, never above +50°C or below -10°C. For maximum

battery capacity, use the battery in room temperature. If the battery is used

in low temperatures, the battery capacity will be reduced. The battery can

only be charged in temperatures between 0°C and +45°C.

If you experience ringing in your ears or muffled speech, stop listening and

have your hearing checked. The louder the volume, the less time is required

before your hearing could be affected. Hearing experts suggest that to

protect your hearing:

• Limit the amount of time you use Headset at high volume.
• Avoid turning up the volume to block out noisy surroundings.
• Turn the volume down if you can’t hear people speaking

near you.

Please refer to your handset user guide for more information on how to

adjust listening levels on your handset.
