Potentially Explosive Atmosphere
Turn your phone OFF when in any
area with a potentially explosive
atmosphere and obey all signs and
instructions. 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 marked clearly. Potential
areas may include: fueling areas
(such as gasoline stations); below
deck on boats; fuel or chemical
transfer or storage facilities;
vehicles using liquefied...

Only use the battery with a
charging system that has been
qualified with the system per this
standard. Use of an unqualified
battery or charger may present a
risk of fire, explosion, leakage, or
other hazard.
Do not short circuit a battery or
allow metallic conductive objects
to contact battery terminals.
Replace the battery only with
another battery that has been
qualified with the system per this
standard, IEEE-Std-1725-200x.
Use of an unqualified battery
may present a risk of fire,
explosion,...

The battery doesn’t need to be
empty before recharging.
Use only LG-approved chargers
specific to your phone model
since they are designed to
maximize battery life. 
Do not disassemble or short-
circuit the battery.
Keep the battery’s metal
contacts clean.
Replace the battery when it no
longer provides acceptable
performance. The battery can be
recharged several hundred times
before replacement.
Recharge the battery after long
periods of non-use to maximize
battery life.
Battery life will vary...

Don’t short-circuit the battery.
Metallic articles such as a coin,
paperclip or pen in your pocket
or bag may short-circuit the +
and – terminals of the battery
(metal strips on the battery)
upon moving. Short-circuit of the
terminal may damage the battery
and cause an explosion.
General Notice
Using a damaged battery or
placing a battery in your mouth
may cause serious injury.
Do not place items containing
magnetic components such as a
credit card, phone card, bank
book, or subway ticket near your...

When you use the phone in
public places, set the ringtone to
vibration so you don't disturb
others.
Do not turn your phone on or
off when putting it to your ear.
Use accessories, such as
earphones and headsets, with
caution. Ensure that cables are
tucked away safely and do not
touch the antenna unnecessarily.
Caution: 
Avoid potential hearing
loss.
Prolonged exposure to loud sounds
(including music) is the most
common cause of preventable
hearing loss. Some scientific
research suggests that...

cancelling headphones to block
out background environmental
noise.
 Limit the amount of time you
listen. As the volume increases,
less time is required before your
hearing could be affected.
 Avoid using headphones after
exposure to extremely loud
noises, such as rock concerts,
that might cause temporary
hearing loss. Temporary hearing
loss might cause unsafe volumes
to sound normal.
 Do not listen at any volume that
causes you discomfort. If you
experience ringing in your ears,
hear muffled speech...

FDA Consumer
Update
The U.S. Food and Drug
Administration’s Center for Devices
and Radiological Health Consumer
Update on Mobile Phones:
1. Do wireless phones pose a
health hazard?
The available scientific evidence
does not show that any health
problems are associated with using
wireless phones. There is no proof,
however, that wireless phones are
absolutely safe. Wireless phones
emit low levels of Radio Frequency
(RF) energy in the microwave range
while being used. They also emit
very low levels of...

Safety
Support needed research into
possible biological effects of RF
of the type emitted by wireless
phones;
Design wireless phones in a way
that minimizes any RF exposure
to the user that is not necessary
for device function; and
Cooperate in providing users of
wireless phones with the best
possible information on possible
effects of wireless phone use on
human health.
The FDA belongs to an interagency
working group of the federal
agencies that have responsibility
for different aspects of RF...

“cell”, “mobile”, or “PCS” phones.
These types of wireless phones can
expose the user to measurable
Radio Frequency (RF) energy
because of the short distance
between the phone and the user’s
head. 
These RF exposures are limited by
FCC safety guidelines that were
developed with the advice of the
FDA and other federal health and
safety agencies. When the phone is
located at greater distances from
the user, the exposure to RF is
drastically lower because a
person's RF exposure decreases
rapidly with...

cancer, glioma, meningioma, or
acoustic neuroma, tumors of the
brain or salivary gland, leukemia, or
other cancers. None of the studies
demonstrated the existence of any
harmful health effects from wireless
phone RF exposures. However,
none of the studies can answer
questions about long-term
exposures, since the average period
of phone use in these studies was
around three years.

decide whether RF exposure from
wireless phones poses a health
risk?
