Guidelines for safe and efficient use
Please read these simple guidelines.
Not following these guidelines may
be dangerous or illegal.
•
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.
Exposure to radio
frequency energy
•
•
•
The SAR limit recommended by
the International Commission on
Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection
(ICNIRP) is 2W/kg averaged over
10g of tissue.
The highest SAR value for this
model phone tested by DASY4 for
use at the ear is 0.390 W/kg (10
g) and when worn on the body is
0.642 W/kg(10 g).
Radio wave exposure and Specific
Absorption Rate (SAR) information.
This mobile phone model LG-P920
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 ensure the
safety of all persons, regardless of
age and health.
SAR data information for
residents in countries/regions
that have adopted the SAR limit
recommended by the Institute
of Electrical and Electronics
Engineers (IEEE), which is 1.6 W/
kg averaged over 1g of tissue.
•
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.
6
•
•
Keep away from electrical
appliances such as TVs, radios,
and personal computers.
The unit should be kept away from
heat sources such as radiators or
cookers.
Product care and
maintenance
WARNING
Only use batteries, chargers
and accessories approved
for use with this particular
phone model. The use of any
other types may invalidate any
approval or warranty applying
to the phone, and may be
dangerous.
•
•
Do not drop.
Do not subject this unit to
mechanical vibration or shock.
Switch off the phone in any area
where you are required to do so by
special regulations. For example,
do not use your phone in hospitals
as it may affect sensitive medical
equipment.
Do not handle the phone with wet
hands while it is being charged. It
may cause an electric shock and
can seriously damage your phone.
Do not charge a handset near
flammable material as the handset
can become hot and create a fire
hazard.
•
•
•
Do not disassemble this unit. Take
it to a qualified service technician
when repair work is required.
Repairs under warranty, at
LG’s discretion, may include
replacement parts or boards that
are either new or reconditioned,
provided they have functionality
equal to that of the parts being
replaced.
•
•
7
Guidelines for safe and efficient use
•
Use a dry cloth to clean the
exterior of the unit (do not use
solvents such as benzene, thinner
or alcohol).
Do not charge the phone when it
is on soft furnishings.
Efficient phone operation
Electronics devices
All mobile phones may get

without requesting permission.
Avoid placing the phone over
pacemakers, for example, in your
breast pocket.
Do not subject this unit to
excessive smoke or dust.
Do not keep the phone next to
credit cards or transport tickets; it
can affect the information on the
magnetic strips.
Do not tap the screen with a
sharp object as it may damage
the phone.
Do not expose the phone to liquid
or moisture.
Use the accessories like
earphones cautiously. Do not touch
the antenna unnecessarily.
•
•
Some hearing aids might be
disturbed by mobile phones.
Minor interference may affect TVs,
radios, PCs, etc.
•
Road safety
Check the laws and regulations on
the use of mobile phones in the area
when you drive.
•
•
•
Do not use a hand-held phone
while driving.
•
•
Give full attention to driving.
Pull off the road and park before
making or answering a call if
8
driving conditions so require.
RF energy may affect some
electronic systems in your vehicle
such as car stereos and safety
equipment.
When your vehicle is equipped
with an air bag, do not obstruct
with installed or portable wireless
equipment. It can cause the air
bag to fail or cause serious injury
due to improper performance.
If you are listening to music whilst
out and about, please ensure that
the volume is at a reasonable
level so that you are aware of your
surroundings. This is particularly
imperative when near roads.
music and call volumes are set to a
reasonable level.
•
•
NOTE: Excessive sound pressure
from earphones 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. Stop using your
mobile device until the glass is
replaced by an authorised service
provider.
•
Avoid damage to your
hearing
Blasting area
Do not use the phone where blasting
is in progress. Observe restrictions,
and follow any regulations or rules.
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
the handset on or off when close to
your ear. We also recommend that
9
Guidelines for safe and efficient use
Potentially explosive
atmospheres
Do not use the phone at a
refuelling point.
Children
Keep the phone in a safe place
out of the reach of small children.
It contains small parts which may
cause a choking hazard if detached.
•
•
•
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 and
accessories.
Emergency calls
Emergency calls may not be
available under all mobile networks.
Therefore, you should never depend
solely on the phone for emergency
calls. Check with your local service
provider.
In aircraft
Wireless devices can cause
interference in aircraft.
Battery information and
care
•
Turn your mobile phone off before
boarding any aircraft.
•
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.
•
Do not use it on the ground
without permission from the crew.
10
•
Use only LG batteries and
chargers. LG chargers are
designed to maximise the battery
life.
Do not disassemble or short-circuit
the battery pack.
•
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.
•
•
•
•
•
•
Keep the metal contacts of the
battery pack clean.
Replace the battery when it
no longer provides acceptable
performance. The battery pack
may be recharged hundreds of
times until 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
the battery performance.
