The Listen to the Ambient Sound (LAS) function allows you to listen to the

ambient sound so that you can recognize the surrounding situation and any

potential risks.

[Active Noise Cancellation (ANC)]

The Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) function blocks any ambient sound.

So, you can use the function to listen to the music or watch a video without
interference.

[Earbuds]

*Make sure that the charging terminal is not soiled with foreign substance.

*The appearance and specifications of the actual product may differ depending

on the model.

When the Fast Pair connection pop-up appears on the top area of the

mobile phone screen, tap it to connect. (It only supports Android™ 6.0

or higher, and requires configuring

Bluetooth

and location information

settings of the mobile device.)

If the pop-up does not appear, select

[LG-TONE-FP9] from the

Bluetooth

menu on the mobile phone and connect it (for users of iOS or

Android 5.0 or lower versions).

CAUTION:

In the list of

Bluetooth

connected devices, LG-TONE-FP9_LE

is not the correct model name for connection. Check the model name in

use and connect with the model name without “LE”.

If the earbud model name is abnormally displayed on the Android device,

change the model name in the

Bluetooth

menu of Connected Device

Settings.

NOTE:

To connect with another device, perform the above procedure again.

Bluetooth

name of the product is “LG-TONE-FP9”.

Automatic Reconnection

The earbuds are connected automatically when you open the cover of the

charging case. If you close the cover of the charging case with both earbuds

mounted in the charging case, the earbuds are disconnected.

Separate the earbuds from the charging case and adjust them so that

they fit comfortably in your ears.

NOTE:

You can use ear gels that fit your ears to improve

Active Noise Canceling (ANC) performance and enjoy

rich music sound.

When you wear the earbuds, you will hear a wearing detection alarm.

Touch the left(Decrease volume) or

right(Increase volume) earbud twice.

Play Next

Touch the left or right earbud three times.

NOTE:

You can change the operation method of the function in the

Once you turn on the Plug and Wireless mode, the earbuds reacts to

your touch as follows:

- Touch it once to mute or unmute the sound.
- Touch it twice to adjust the volume.
- Touching it three times triggers no response.

The charging case has a built-in

UVnano LED, which allows you to

use your earbuds cleanly.
If you charge the earbuds wired after

mounting them on the charging case

and closing the cover, the UVnano

LED operates for 5 minutes.
*UVnano is a compound word

derived from the words UV and its

unit, nanometer.

NOTE:

The UVnano indicator turns on blue while the UVnano LED is on.

The UVnano charging case eliminates up to 99.9% of harmful

bacteria inside the earbud hole.

In the case of a white product, discolouring may occur in the

contact area of the UVnano LED, but it does not affect the product

function.

CAUTION:

Be aware that the temperature of the earbuds may rise

while the UVnano LED is on.

[Wired Charging]

When the charging cable is connected, the charging status is displayed in the

charging case.

NOTE:

The earbuds and the charging case are charged at the same time.

The charging port on the charging case cannot be used to supply power

to mobile phones, etc.

If earbuds are mounted in the charging case, the earbuds’ battery status is

displayed. Otherwise, the charging case’s battery status is displayed.

If the earbuds are mounted in the charging case while plugged in, the

UVnano process will commence for 5 minutes. Once this process is

complete, the charging case’s battery status will be displayed.

and the LAS mode.
You can set the LAS and ANC functions in the LG TONE Free app.

You can configure the Listen to the Ambient Sound mode and Conversation

mode using the LG TONE Free app.
If you use the LAS or ANC function, the battery consumes faster, reducing

the time you can use the product.
You can use the LAS and ANC functions while being idle, listening to music,

or being on the phone.

ANC is an acronym for Active Noise Cancellation.

CAUTION:

When the LAS mode is enabled, you may hear the ambient

sound become loud suddenly.

When using the ANC function outdoors, pay attention to the

surrounding environment for safety.

NOTE:

Actual product design may differ from images shown in manual.

*A mid-sized ear gel is attached to the earbud by default.

Make sure authentic LG Electronics components are used. Using a non-

authentic component may damage the product and thus void the warranty.
Use the USB Type-C™ cable/USB-C™ to AUX cable provided with the product.
