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

- 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

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 that 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 a 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.

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.
