For Your Safety
Important Information
This user 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 guide could
void your warranty for this equipment.
Before You Start
Safety Instructions
WARNING
To reduce the possibility of electric shock, do not expose your phone to high
humidity areas, such as the bathroom, swimming pool, etc.
Always store your phone away from heat. Never store your phone in
settings that may expose it to temperatures less than 32°F (0°C) or
greater than 104°F (40°C), such as outside during extreme weather
conditions or in your car on a hot day. Exposure to excessive cold or heat
will result in malfunction, damage and/or catastrophic failure.
Be careful when using your phone near other electronic devices.
RF emissions from your mobile phone may affect nearby in adequately
shielded electronic equipment. You should consult with manufacturers of
any personal medical devices such as pacemakers and hearing aides to
determine if they are susceptible to interference from your mobile phone.
Turn off your phone in a medical facility or at a gas station. Never place
your phone in a microwave oven as this will cause the battery to explode.
Safety Information
Read these simple guidelines. Breaking the rules may be dangerous or
illegal. Further detailed information is given in this user guide.
• Never use an unapproved battery since this could damage the phone
and/or battery and could cause the battery to explode.
• Never place your phone in a microwave oven as it will cause the
battery to explode.

6
• Your phone contains an internal battery. Do not dispose of your
battery by fire or with hazardous or flammable materials.
• Make sure that no sharpedged items come into contact with the
battery. There is a risk of this causing a fire.
• Store the battery in a place out of reach of children.
• Be careful that children do not swallow any parts such as rubber
plugs (earphone, connection parts of the phone, etc.). This could
cause asphyxiation or suffocation.
• Unplug the power cord and charger during lightning storms to avoid
electric shock or fire.
• When riding in a car, do not leave your phone or set up the hands-free
kit near to the air bag. If wireless equipment is improperly installed
and the air bag is activated, you may be seriously injured.
• Do not use a hand-held phone while driving.
• Do not use the phone in areas where its use is prohibited. (For
example: aircraft).
• Do not expose the battery charger or adapter to direct sunlight or
use it in places with high humidity, such as a bathroom.
• Never store your phone in temperatures less than -4°F (-20°C) or
greater than 122°F (50°C).
• 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 drop, strike, or shake your phone severely. Such actions may
harm the internal circuit boards of the phone.
• Do not use your phone in high explosive areas as the phone may
generate sparks.
• Do not damage the power cord by bending, twisting, pulling, or
heating.
• Do not use the plug if it is loose as it may cause a fire or electric
shock.
• Do not place any heavy items on the power cord. Do not allow the
power cord to be crimped as it may cause fire or electric shock.

7
• Do not handle the phone with wet hands while it is being charged. It
may cause an electric shock or seriously damage your phone.
• Do not disassemble the phone.
• Do not place or answer calls while charging the phone as it may
short-circuit the phone and/or cause electric shock or fire.
• Only use the batteries, antennas, and chargers provided by LG. The
warranty will not be applied to products provided by other suppliers.
• Only authorized personnel should service the phone and its
accessories. Faulty 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.
• An emergency call can be made only within a service area. For an
emergency call, make sure that you are within a service area and that
the phone is turned on.
• Use accessories, such as earphones and headsets, with caution.
Ensure that cables are tucked away safely and do not touch the
antenna unnecessarily.
FCC RF Exposure Information
WARNING!
Read this information before operating the phone.
In August 1996, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of the
United States, with its action in Report and Order FCC 96-326, adopted
an updated safety standard for human exposure to radio frequency (RF)
electromagnetic energy emitted by FCC regulated transmitters. Those
guidelines are consistent with the safety standard previously set by both
U.S. and international standards bodies.
The design of this phone complies with the FCC guidelines and these
international standards.

8
CAUTION
Use only the supplied and approved antenna. Use of unauthorized
antennas or modifications could impair call quality, damage the phone,
void your warranty and/or result in violation of FCC regulations. Do not
use the phone with a damaged antenna. If a damaged antenna comes into
contact with skin, a minor burn may result. Contact your local dealer for a
replacement antenna.
Body-worn Operation
This device was tested for typical body-worn operations with the back
of the phone kept 1 cm (0.39 inches) between the user’s body and the
back of the phone. To comply with FCC/IC RF exposure requirements, a
minimum separation distance of 1 cm (0.39 inches) must be maintained
between the user’s body and the back of the phone.
Any belt-clips, holsters, and similar accessories containing metallic
components may not be used.
Body-worn accessories that cannot maintain 1 cm (0.39 inches)
separation distance between the user’s body and the back of the phone,
and have not been tested for typical bodyworn operations may not
comply with FCC/IC RF exposure limits and should be avoided.
FCC Part 15 Class B Compliance
This device complies with part 15 of FCC rules and IC license-exempt RSS
standard(s).
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) this device may not cause interference, and
(2) this device must accept any interference, including interference that
may cause undesired operation of the device.
Cautions for Battery
• Do not disassemble.
• Do not short-circuit.
• Do not expose to high temperature: 140°F (60°C).
• Do not incinerate.

9
Battery Disposal
• Please dispose of your battery properly or bring to your local wireless
carrier for recycling.
• Your phone contains an internal battery. Do not dispose of your
battery by fire or with hazardous or flammable materials.
Adapter (Charger) Cautions
• Using the wrong battery charger could damage your phone and void
your warranty.
• The adapter or battery charger is intended for indoor use only.
• Do not expose the adapter or battery charger to direct sunlight or
use it in places with high humidity, such as the bathroom.
Avoid damage to your hearing
• Damage to your hearing can occur if you are exposed to loud sounds
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.
• 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.
