The Basics

Non-Removable Battery

Your device is equipped with an internal rechargeable battery which should
be replaced only by LG or an authorized LG repair center. You should never
attempt to open or disassemble this device yourself and doing so may
cause damage that voids your warranty.

NOTE

If your device freezes, press and hold the Power/Lock Key

for 10 seconds to reboot

the device.

Optimizing Battery Life

You can extend your battery’s life between charges by turning off features
that run in the background. You can also monitor how applications and
system resources consume battery power.

Tips to extend the life of your battery

㻌  Turn off radio communications that you aren’t using. If you aren’t

using Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, or GPS, use the Settings menu to turn them
off (Note that the GPS receiver is only turned on when you’re using an
application that makes use of it).

㻌  Turn down screen brightness and set a shorter screen timeout.
㻌  Turn off automatic syncing for Gmail, Calendar, Contacts, and other

applications if you don’t need it.

㻌  Use the Power saver mode switch in the Settings menu.
㻌  Use the Power Control widget to control data activity, Bluetooth

connection, GPS connection, syncing activity, and screen brightness.

㻌  Use the Quick settings in the Notifications Panel to control sound,

Bluetooth power, NFC power, GPS connection, and airplane mode.

To check the battery charge level

㻌  From the Home screen, tap Apps > Settings > About phone >

Battery.
The battery status (Charging or Discharging) and level (as a percentage
of fully charged) will be displayed at the top of the screen.
