Guidelines for safe and efficient use
Please read these simple guidelines. Not following these guidelines may be dangerous
or illegal.
Should a fault occur, a software tool is built into your device that will gather a fault log.
This tool gathers only data specific to the fault, such as signal strength, cell ID position
in sudden call drop and applications loaded. The log is used only to help determine
the cause of the fault. These logs are encrypted and can only be accessed by an
authorised LG Repair centre should you need to return your device for repair.
Exposure to radio frequency energy
Radio wave exposure and Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) information.
This mobile phone model LG-X155 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 assure the safety of all
persons, regardless of age and health.
•
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.
•
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.
•
The SAR limit recommended by the International Commission on Non-Ionizing
Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) is 2 W/kg averaged over 10g of tissue.
•
The highest SAR value for this model phone tested for use at the ear is
0.683 W/kg (10g) and when worn on the body is 0.753 W/Kg (10g).
Guidelines for safe and efficient use
4
•
This device meets RF exposure guidelines when used either in the normal use
position against the ear or when positioned at least 1.5 cm away from the body.
When a carry case, belt clip or holder is used for body-worn operation, it should
not contain metal and should position the product at least 1.5 cm away from your
body. In order to transmit data files or messages, this device requires a quality
connection to the network. In some cases, transmission of data files or messages
may be delayed until such a connection is available. Ensure the above separation
distance instructions are followed until the transmission is completed.
Product care and maintenance
WARNING
Always use genuine LG 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 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 that they have functionality
equal to that of the parts being replaced.
•
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.
•
Do not drop.

•
Your phone is an electronic device that generates heat during normal operation.
Extremely prolonged, direct skin contact in the absence of adequate ventilation
may result in discomfort or minor burns. Therefore, use care when handling your
phone during or immediately after operation.
•
If your phone gets wet, immediately unplug it to dry off completely. Do not attempt
to accelerate the drying process with an external heating source, such as an
oven, microwave or hair dryer.

permission. Avoid placing the phone over pacemakers, for example, in your breast
pocket.
•
Some hearing aids might be disturbed by mobile phones.
•
Minor interference may affect TVs, radios, PCs etc.

•
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 of
particular importance when near roads.
Guidelines for safe and efficient use
7
Avoid damage to your hearing
To prevent possible hearing damage, do not listen at high volume
levels for long periods.
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 on or off the handset close to your
ear. We also recommend that music and call volumes are set to a reasonable level.
•
When using headphones, turn the volume down if you cannot hear the people
speaking near you, or if the person sitting next to you can hear what you are
listening to.
NOTE
•
Excessive sound pressure from earphones and headphones 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 it. Stop using your mobile device until
the glass is replaced by an authorised service provider.
