Guidelines for safe and efcient use
Important Information
This user's guide contains important information about the use and
operation of this phone. Read all information carefully for optimal
performance and to avoid any damage or misuse of the phone. Any
changes or modifications not expressly approved in this user's guide could
void your warranty for this equipment.
Before you begin
Safety Guidelines
WARNING
•
To reduce the possibility of electric shock, do not expose your product to high
humidity areas, such as bathroom or swimming pool.
Keep the phone away from heat. Never store your phone in environment
thatmayexposeittotemperaturesbelow0°Corabove40°C,suchas
outdoor during snowstorm, or in your car in hot days. Exposure to cold or
heat will result in malfunction, damage or permanent failure. Be careful
when using your phone near other electronic devices. The RF emissions
from mobile phones may affect nearby electronic equipment that not
adequately shielded. You should consult manufacturers of any personal
medical devices, as in the case of pacemakers and hearing aides, to
determine whether they are susceptible to interference from cell phones.
Turn off your phone in medical facilities or at gas stations. Never place
your phone in microwaves, as it will cause the battery to explode.
Important
•
Before using your phone, please read the SAFETY INFORMATION OF THE
TELECOMMUNICATIONS INDUSTRY ASSOCIATION (TIA).

Safety Information
Read these simple guidelines. Breaking the rules may be illegal or
dangerous.
More detailed information is provided in this user's guide.
•
Never use an unapproved battery that could cause damages to the
phone or the battery itself, or even explode.
•
Never place your phone in a microwave oven, as this will result in an
explosion of the battery.
•
Do not dispose of your battery in fire or with hazardous or flammable
materials.
•
Make sure the battery does not come into contact with sharp-edged
items, such as animal teeth or claws. This could cause a fire.
•
Store the battery in a place out of the reach of children.
•
Be careful so that children do not swallow any parts of the phone,
such as rubber plugs (earpiece, parts that connect to the phone, etc.).
This could cause asphyxiation or suffocation.
•
Disconnect the plug and charger from the outlet when the phone
shows that the battery has been fully charged, because it may cause
electric shock or fire hazard.
•
When in the car, do not leave your phone, or install a hands-free kit,
near the airbag. If wireless equipment is improperly installed, you can
be seriously injured if the airbag is deployed.
•
Do not use mobile phone while driving.
•
Do not use the phone in areas where its usage is prohibited. (For
example: in airplanes).
•
Do not expose the battery charger or adapter to direct sunlight, or
use it in places with high humidity, such as bathroom.
•
Neverstoreyourphoneintemperatureslowerthan-20°Corhigher

7
•
Do not use harsh chemicals (such as alcohol, benzene, solvents, etc.)
or detergents to clean the phone. This could cause fire.
•
Do not drop the phone, strike it, or shake it hard.
Such actions may harm the phone's internal circuit boards.
•
Do not use your phone in high explosive areas, as this may generate
sparks.
•
Do not damage the power cord by bending, twisting, pulling, or
heating it. Do not use the plug if it is loose as it may cause fire or
electric shock.
•
Do not handle the phone with wet hands while it is charging. This can
cause electric shock or seriously damage your phone.
•
Do not disassemble the phone.
•
Do not make or answer calls while charging the phone, which can
cause a short circuit, electric shock, or fire.
•
Use only batteries and chargers provided by LG. The warranty does
not apply to products provided by other providers.
•
Only authorized personnel should service the phone and its
accessories.
Installation or service may result in accidents and consequently
invalidate the warranty.
•
Do not hold or let the antenna come in contact with your body during
a call.
•
Emergency calls can be made only within a service area. To make
an emergency call, make sure you are within a service area and the
phone is on.
•
Use your accessories, such as headphones or headsets, with caution,
ensuring that the cables are plugged properly and that they do not
touch the antenna unnecessarily.

Body-worn Operation
This device was tested for typical bodyworn operations with the back of the phone kept 0.39
inches (1cm) between the user’s body and the back of the phone. To comply with FCC RF
exposure requirements, a minimum separation distance of 0.39 inches (1cm) must be
maintained between the user’s body and the back of the phone.
Any beltclips, holsters, and similar accessories containing metallic components may not be
used. Body-worn accessories that cannot maintain 0.39 inches (1cm) separation distance
between the user's body and the back of the phone, and have not been tested for typical
body-worn operations may not comply with FCC RF exposure limits and should be avoided.
