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.
• 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.
