Additional Information

1. Radiofrequency 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 device.

2. 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
   Power off your electronic device when in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere.
   Although this is uncommon, 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. Emergency calls
   IMPORTANT!
   This Bluetooth headset and the electronic device connected to the headset operate using radio signals, mobile and landline networks as well as user- programmed functions, which cannot guarantee connection under all conditions. Therefore you should never rely solely upon any electronic device for essential communications (e.g. medical emergencies).
   Remember, in order to make or receive calls, the headset and the electronic device connected to the headset must be powered on and in a service area with adequate mobile signal strength. Emergency calls may not be possible on all mobile phone networks or when certain network services and/or phone features are in use. Check with your local service provider.

5. 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 (+122°F) or below -10°C (+14°F). For maximum battery capacity, use the battery at 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 (+32°F) and +45°C (+113°F).

6. Recycling the battery in your Bluetooth headset
   The battery in your Bluetooth headset must be disposed of properly and should never be placed in municipal waste. The LG Electronics service partner who removes the battery will dispose of it according to local regulations. In case rechargeable battery is included in this product, the rechargeable battery should be recycled in compliance with rechargeable battery recycling standards. To dispose of properly, call 1.800.822.8837 or visit
   www.call2recycle.ca.

Important Safety Information
Avoiding hearing damage
Permanent hearing loss may occur if you use your headset at a high volume.
Set the volume to a safe level. Over time you can become accustomed to a higher volume that may sound normal but can be damaging to your hearing.
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 the headset at high volume.

  • Avoid increasing the volume to block out noisy surroundings.
  • Decrease the volume if you can’t hear people speaking near you.

Using headsets safely
Use of headsets to listen to music while operating a vehicle is not recommended and is illegal in some areas. Be careful and attentive while driving. Stop using this device if you find it disruptive or distracting while operating any type of vehicle or performing any other activity that requires your full attention.
