Declaration of Conrmation
FCC NOTICE TO USERS:
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.
1. Radio frequency exposure
This Bluetooth® Stereo Headset HBS-910 is a radio transmitter and receiver. When in operation it com-
municates 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. 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.
2. Potentially explosive atmosphere
Turn o 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 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 rst few times it is used. Do not expose the
battery to extreme temperatures, never above +60°C (+140°F) or below -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 with the product. If you need to
replace the battery, take it to the nearest authorised LG Electronics service point or dealer for assistance.

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 mued speech, stop listening and have your hearing checked. The louder the
volume, the less time is required before your hearing could be aected.
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 while driving. Stop using this device if you nd it disruptive or distracting while operating any type of
vehicle or performing any other activity that requires your full attention.
