Radio frequency exposureThis Bluetooth® Headset HBM-280, 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 elds (microwaves) in the frequency range 2.4 to 2.4835 GHz.

Potentially explosive atmosphereTurn 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 re resulting in bodily injury or even death. Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often, but not always, clearly marked.3.Emergency callsIMPORTANT!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 switched 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.4.

A new battery or one that has not been used for a long period of time could have reduced capacity the rst few times it is used. Do not expose the battery to extreme temperatures, never above +60°C(+140°F) or under -20°C(-4°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 +10°C(+50°F) and +45°C (+113°F). For your safety, do not remove the battery incorporated in the product. If you need to replace the battery, take it to the nearest authorized LG Electronics service point or dealer for assistance.5.

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 mufed 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 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 whilst driving. Stop using this device if you nd it disruptive or distracting whilst operating any type of vehicle or performing any other activity that requires your full attention.Additional Information Limited warrantyImportant safety information
