This device complies with part 15 of the FCC rules.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) This device may not cause harmful interference and
(2) This device must accept any interference received, including interference that
may cause undesired operation.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
To comply with the FCC RF exposure compliance requirements, no change to
the antenna or the device is permitted. Any change to the antenna or the device
could result in the device exceeding the RF exposure requirements and void user’s
authority to operate the device.
CE NOTICE TO USERS:
Hereby, LG Electronics Inc. declares that the HBM-290 is in compliance with the
essential requirements and other relevant provisions of Directive 1999/5/EC.
Additional Information
1. Radio frequency exposure
This Bluetooth® Headset HBM-290, 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 2.4 to 2.4835 GHz. 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.
14
ENG
Additional Information
2. Potentially explosive atmosphere
Turn 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.
3.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 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. 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 +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. 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.

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 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 find it disruptive or
distracting whilst operating any type of vehicle or performing any other
activity that requires your full attention.
