Introduction

Congratulations on your purchase of the advanced
and compact KG920 mobile phone, designed to
operate with the latest digital mobile communication
technology.
Introduction
This user’s guide contains important information
on the use and operation of this phone. Please
read all the information carefully for optimal
performance and to prevent any damage to or
misuse of the phone. Any changes or
modifications not expressly approved in this
user’s guide could void your warranty for this
equipment.
Use of phone cases with magnetic locks with
slide type phones has caused problems such as
loss of network signal and phones powering off.

Please read these simple guidelines. Not following
these guidelines may be dangerous or illegal. Further
detailed information is given in this manual.
CAUTION!
• Switch off the phone in any area where required by
special regulations. For example, do not use your phone
in hospitals or it may affect sensitive medical equipment.
• Emergency calls may not be available under all mobile
networks. Therefore, you should never depend solely on
your mobile phone for emergency calls.
• Only use ORIGINAL accessories to avoid damage to your
phone.
• All radio transmitters carry risks of interference with
electronics in close proximity. Minor interference may
affect TVs, radios, PCs, etc.
• Batteries should be disposed of in accordance with
relevant legislation.
• Do not dismantle the phone or battery.
WARNING!
• Mobile Phones must be switched off at all times in
aircrafts.
• Do not hold the phone in your hand while driving.
• Do not use your phone near petrol stations, fuel depots,
chemical plants or blasting operations.
• For your safety, use ONLY specified ORIGINAL batteries
and chargers.
• Do not handle the phone with wet hands while it is being
charged. It may cause an electric shock or seriously
damage your phone.
• Keep the phone in a safe place out of small children’s
reach. It includes small parts which, if detached, may
cause a choking hazard.

Exposure to radio frequency energy
Radio wave exposure and Specific Absorption
Rate (SAR) information
The KG920 has been designed to comply with
applicable safety requirements for exposure to radio
waves. This requirement is 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 2W/kg averaged over ten (10) gram of
tissue.
• The highest SAR value for this model phone tested
by DASY4 for use at the ear is 0.636 W/kg (10g).
• SAR data information for residents in
countries/regions that have adopted the SAR limit
recommended by the Institute of Electrical and
Electronics Engineers (IEEE) is 1.6 W/kg averaged
over one (1) gram of tissue (for example USA,
Canada, Australia and Taiwan).
Product care and maintenance
•Do not disassemble this unit. Take it to a qualified
service technician when repair work is required.
•Keep away from electrical appliances such as a TV's,
radios or personal computers.
•The unit should be kept away from heat sources such
as radiators or cookers.
WARNING!
Only use batteries, chargers and accessories approved for
use with this particular phone model. The use of any other
types may invalidate any approval or warranty applying to
the phone, and may be dangerous.

Guidelines for safe and efficient use
•Never place your phone in a microwave oven as it will
cause the battery to explode.
•Do not drop.
•Do not subject this unit to mechanical vibration or
shock.
•The coating of the phone may be damaged if
covered with wrap or vinyl wrapper.
•Do not use harsh chemicals (such as alcohol,
benzene, thinners, etc.) or detergents to clean your
phone. There is a risk of this causing a fire.
•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, such as earphones and headsets,
with caution. Ensure that cables are tucked away
safely and do not touch the antenna unnecessarily.
•Please remove the data cable before powering on
the handset.
Efficient phone operation
To enjoy optimum performance with minimum power
consumption please:
•Do not hold the antenna when the phone is in use. If
you hold it, it can affect call quality, it may also cause
the phone to operate at a higher power level than
needed and shorten talk and standby times.

Electronic devices
All mobile phones may get interference, which
could affect performance.
•Do not use your mobile phone near medical
equipment without requesting permission. Avoid
placing the phone over pacemakers (i.e. in your
breast pocket.)
•Some hearing aids might be disturbed by mobile
phones.
•Minor interference may affect TVs, radios, PCs, etc.
Road safety
Check the laws and regulations on the use of
mobile phones in the areas when you drive.
•Do not use a hand-held phone while driving.
•Give full attention to driving.
•Use a hands-free kit, if available.
•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 motor vehicle such as a car stereo or safety
equipment.
•If your vehicle is equipped with an air bag, do not
obstruct it with installed or portable wireless
equipment. It can 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
particularly imperative when attempting to cross the
street.
Avoid damage to your hearing
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.

long time to maximize usability.
•Do not expose the battery charger to direct sunlight
or use it in high humidity, such as the bathroom.
•Do not leave the battery in hot or cold places, this
may deteriorate the battery performance.
Memory card information and
care
• Always insert/remove the memory card while the
handset is switched off. When writing to the card,
wait for the operation to complete before removing
the card.
• The memory card is designed to fit easily into the
phone one way only. Do not bend or force it into
the slot.
• If the memory card becomes corrupt, then please
format the card. Please note this may not resolve
the problem.

Indicates that you are using a security
connection.
Indicates the battery level, divided in
bars. The Battery indicator may
fluctuate depending on the kind of
phone usage. Using multimedia
functions like MP3, camera, video, etc
will increase battery consumption, so
the battery charge expires sooner than
when using common features of the
phone. This difference in battery
consumption may cause a fluctuation
of 2 or 3 bars depending on the
application used.
Note
The quality of the conversation may change
depending on network coverage. When the signal
strength is below 2 bars, you may experience
muting, call drop and poor audio. Please refer to
this signal as an indicator for your calls. When
there are no bars, that means that there is no
network coverage: in this case, you won’t be able
to access the network for any service (call,
messages and so on).
