Guidelines for safe and efficient use  
Please read these simple guidelines. Not following these guidelines may be dangerous  
or illegal.  
Should a fault occur, a software tool is built into your device that will gather a fault log.  
This tool gathers only data specific to the fault, such as signal strength, cell ID position  
in sudden call drop and applications loaded. The log is used only to help determine the  
cause of the fault. These logs are encrypted and can only be accessed by an authorised  
LG Repair centre should you need to return your device for repair.  
Exposure to radio frequency energy  
Radio wave exposure and Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) information.  
This mobile phone model LG-H815T has been designed to comply with applicable  
safety requirements for exposure to radio waves. These requirements are based on  
scientific guidelines that include safety margins designed to assure the safety of all  
persons, regardless of age and health.  
The radio wave exposure guidelines employ a unit of measurement known as the  
Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. Tests for SAR are conducted using standardised  
methods with the phone transmitting at its highest certified power level in all used  
frequency bands.  
While there may be differences between the SAR levels of various LG phone  
models, they are all designed to meet the relevant guidelines for exposure to radio  
waves.  
The SAR limit recommended by the International Commission on Non-Ionizing  
Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) is 2 W/kg averaged over 10 g of tissue.  
The highest SAR value for this model phone tested for use at the ear is  
0.618 W/kg (10 g) and when worn on the body is 0.436 W/Kg (10 g).  
Guidelines for safe and efficient use  
4
This device meets RF exposure guidelines when used either in the normal use  
position against the ear or when positioned at least 1.5 cm away from the body.  
When a carry case, belt clip or holder is used for body-worn operation, it should  
not contain metal and should position the product at least 1.5 cm away from your  
body. In order to transmit data files or messages, this device requires a quality  
connection to the network. In some cases, transmission of data files or messages  
may be delayed until such a connection is available. Ensure the above separation  
distance instructions are followed until the transmission is completed.  
Product care and maintenance  
WARNING  
Always use genuine LG batteries, chargers and accessories approved for use  
with this particular phone model. The use of any other types may void any  
approval or warranty applying to the phone and may be dangerous.  
Do not disassemble this unit. Take it to a qualified service technician when repair  
work is required.  
Repairs under warranty, at LG's discretion, may include replacement parts or  
boards that are either new or reconditioned, provided that they have functionality  
equal to that of the parts being replaced.  
Keep away from electrical appliances such as TVs, radios and personal computers.  
The unit should be kept away from heat sources such as radiators or cookers.  
Do not drop.  
Do not subject this unit to mechanical vibration or shock.  
Switch off the phone in any area where you are required to by special regulations.  
For example, do not use your phone in hospitals as it may affect sensitive medical  
equipment.  
Do not handle the phone with wet hands while it is being charged. It may cause an  
electric shock and can seriously damage your phone.  
Guidelines for safe and efficient use  
5
Do not charge a handset near flammable material as the handset can become hot  
and create a fire hazard.  
Use a dry cloth to clean the exterior of the unit (do not use solvents such as  
benzene, thinner or alcohol).  
Do not charge the phone when it is on soft furnishings.  
The phone should be charged in a well ventilated area.  
Do not subject this unit to excessive smoke or dust.  
Do not keep the phone next to credit cards or transport tickets; it can affect the  
information on the magnetic strips.  
Do not tap the screen with a sharp object as it may damage the phone.  
Do not expose the phone to liquid or moisture.  
Use accessories like earphones cautiously. Do not touch the antenna unnecessarily.  
Do not use, touch or attempt to remove or fix broken, chipped or cracked glass.  
Damage to the glass display due to abuse or misuse is not covered under the  
warranty.  
Your phone is an electronic device that generates heat during normal operation.  
Extremely prolonged, direct skin contact in the absence of adequate ventilation  
may result in discomfort or minor burns. Therefore, use care when handling your  
phone during or immediately after operation.  
If your phone gets wet, immediately unplug it to dry off completely. Do not attempt  
to accelerate the drying process with an external heating source, such as an oven,  
microwave or hair dryer.  
The liquid in your wet phone, changes the color of the product label inside your  
phone. Damage to your device as a result of exposure to liquid is not covered  
under your warranty.  
Guidelines for safe and efficient use

Efficient phone operation  
Electronics devices  
All mobile phones may receive interference, which could affect performance.  
Do not use your mobile phone near medical equipment without requesting  
permission. Avoid placing the phone over pacemakers, for example, in your breast  
pocket.  
Some hearing aids might be disturbed by mobile phones.  
Minor interference may affect TVs, radios, PCs etc.  
Use your phone in temperatures between 0 ºC and 40 ºC, if possible. Exposing  
your phone to extremely low or high temperatures may result in damage,  
malfunction, or even explosion.  
Road safety  
Check the laws and regulations on the use of mobile phones in the area when you  
drive.  
Do not use a hand-held phone while driving.  
Give full attention to driving.  
Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call if driving conditions  
so require.  
RF energy may affect some electronic systems in your vehicle such as car stereos  
and safety equipment.  
When your vehicle is equipped with an air bag, do not obstruct with installed or  
portable wireless equipment. It can cause the air bag to fail or cause serious injury  
due to improper performance.  
If you are listening to music whilst out and about, please ensure that the volume  
is at a reasonable level so that you are aware of your surroundings. This is of  
particular importance when near roads.  
Guidelines for safe and efficient use  
7
Avoid damage to your hearing  
To prevent possible hearing damage, do not listen at high volume  
levels for long periods.  
Damage to your hearing can occur if you are exposed to loud sound for long periods of  
time. We therefore recommend that you do not turn on or off the handset close to your  
ear. We also recommend that music and call volumes are set to a reasonable level.  
When using headphones, turn the volume down if you cannot hear the people  
speaking near you, or if the person sitting next to you can hear what you are  
listening to.  
NOTE  
Excessive sound pressure from earphones and headphones can cause  
hearing loss.  
Glass Parts  
Some parts of your mobile device are made of glass. This glass could break if your  
mobile device is dropped on a hard surface or receives a substantial impact. If the glass  
breaks, do not touch or attempt to remove it. Stop using your mobile device until the  
glass is replaced by an authorised service provider.  
Blasting area  
Do not use the phone where blasting is in progress. Observe restrictions and follow any  
regulations or rules.  
Guidelines for safe and efficient use  
8

Wireless devices can cause interference in aircraft.  
Turn your mobile phone off before boarding any aircraft.  
Do not use it on the ground without permission from the crew.  
Children  
Keep the phone in a safe place out of the reach of small children. It includes small parts  
which may cause a choking hazard if detached.  
Emergency calls  
Emergency calls may not be available on all mobile networks. Therefore you should  
never depend solely on your phone for emergency calls. Check with your local service  
provider for more information.  
Use your mobile phone to call emergency services for yourself or others in the  
case of fire, traffic accident or medical emergencies;  
- Australia Dial (0-0-0)  
- New Zealand Dial (1-1-1)  
- International Dial (1-1-2)  
- other local emergency number.  
Remember, it is a free call when dialling emergency services from your mobile  
phone in Australia.

Battery information and care  
You do not need to completely discharge the battery before recharging. Unlike  
other battery systems, there is no memory effect that could compromise the  
battery's performance.  
Use only LG batteries and chargers. LG chargers are designed to maximise the  
battery life.  
Do not disassemble or short-circuit the battery.  
Keep the metal contacts of the battery clean.  
Replace the battery when it no longer provides acceptable performance. The  
battery pack may be recharged hundreds of times before it needs replacing.  
Recharge the battery if it has not been used for a long time to maximise usability.  
Do not expose the battery charger to direct sunlight or use it in high humidity, such  
as in the bathroom.  
Do not leave the battery in hot or cold places, as this may deteriorate battery  
performance.  
There is risk of explosion if the battery is replaced with an incorrect type.  
Dispose of used batteries according to the manufacturer's instructions. Please  
recycle when possible. Do not dispose as household waste.  
If you need to replace the battery, take it to the nearest authorised LG Electronics  
service point or dealer for assistance.  
Always unplug the charger from the wall socket after the phone is fully charged to  
save unnecessary power consumption of the charger.  
Actual battery life will depend on network configuration, product settings, usage  
patterns, battery and environmental conditions.  
Make sure that no sharp-edged items such as animal's teeth or nails, come into  
contact with the battery. This could cause a fire.

Driver Safety Tips  
Your mobile telephone gives you the powerful ability to communicate almost anywhere,  
anytime, but an important responsibility accompanies the benefits of mobile phones,  
one that every user must uphold. When driving a car, driving is your first responsibility.  
When using your mobile phone behind the wheel of a car, practice good common sense  
and remember the following tips:  
Use a hands free device to add an additional layer of convenience and safety to  
your wireless phone with one of the many hands free accessories available today.  
Let the person you are speaking with know you are driving; if necessary, suspend  
the call in heavy traffic or hazardous weather conditions. Rain, sleet, snow, ice and  
even heavy traffic can be hazardous.  
Do not take notes or look up phone numbers while driving. Typing up a “to do”  
list or flipping through your address book takes attention away from your primary  
responsibility of driving safely.  
Place calls when you are not moving or before pulling into traffic. Try to plan calls  
when you will not be driving.  
Do not engage in stressful or emotional conversations that may be distracting.  
Make people you are talking with aware you are driving and suspend conversations  
that have the potential to divert your attention from the road.  
Use your mobile phone to help others in emergencies. If you see an auto accident,  
crime in progress or other serious emergency where lives are in danger, call the  
emergency number, as you would want others to do for you.  
If you see a broken down vehicle posing no serious hazard, a broken traffic signal,  
a minor traffic accident where no one appears injured, or a vehicle you know to be  
stolen, call roadside assistance, local traffic authority or police station.

Precautions for use of leather back cover  
Some parts of this product may be made of cattle hide and may have different  
creases and patterns due to the properties of natural leather. If the product gets  
wet with any liquid (water, soda, seawater, rain, sweat, sunscreen, cosmetics,  
moisture, etc.), it may lose colour, change colour, or deform in shape.  
When this product gets wet or contaminated, get rid of the water by pressing it  
gently with a dry towel, or wipe it with leather cream and leave it to dry in shade.  
When the product is exposed to a wet environment for a long time, it may cause  
creases or mould. The shape of the leather may not be restored to its original  
state after cleaning because of the properties of leather, and any contamination or  
deformity may get worse when using regular detergent or an organic solvent.  
When the leather is wet with rain or sweat, use caution and avoid contact with  
clothes. It can cause any dye to become a stain.  
Due to the nature of leather, friction for long periods of time or excessive force may  
damage the surface of the leather.  
Laser safety statement  
Caution!  
This product employs a laser system. To ensure proper use of this product, please read  
this owner's manual carefully and retain for future reference. Should the unit require

Your Home screen  
Touch screen tips  
Here are some tips on how to navigate on your phone.  
Tap or touch – A single finger tap selects items, links, shortcuts and letters on the  
on-screen keyboard.  
Touch and hold – Touch and hold an item on the screen by tapping it and not  
lifting your finger until an action occurs.  
Drag – Touch and hold an item for a moment and then, without lifting your finger,  
move your finger on the screen until you reach the target position. You can drag  
items on the Home screen to reposition them.  
Swipe or slide – To swipe or slide, quickly move your finger across the surface  
of the screen, without pausing when you first tap it (so you don't drag an item  
instead).  
Double-tap – Double-tap to zoom on a webpage or a map.  
Pinch-to-Zoom – Use your index finger and thumb in a pinching or spreading  
motion to zoom in or out when using the browser, Maps, or when viewing pictures.  
Rotate the screen – From many applications and menus, the screen orientation  
adjusts to the device's physical orientation.  
NOTE  
Do not press too hard; the tap screen is sensitive enough to pick up a light,  
yet firm tap.  
Use the tip of your finger to tap the option you want. Be careful not to tap  
any other buttons.
