 :kconfig:option:`CONFIG_BT_MESH_LOW_POWER` option and related configuration options.
 
+When using the LPN feature with logging, it is strongly recommended to only use
+the :kconfig:option:`CONFIG_LOG_MODE_DEFERRED` option. Log modes other than the
+deferred may cause unintended delays during processing of log messages. This in
