Important Safety Precautions
1. Do not expose the battery charger or adapter to direct
sunlight or use it in places with high humidity, such as
a bathroom.
2. Do not use harsh chemicals (such as alcohol, benzene,
thinners, etc.) or detergents to clean your phone. This
could cause a fire.
3. Do not drop, strike, or shake your phone severely. It
may harm the internal circuit boards of the phone.
4. Do not use your phone in high explosive areas as the
phone may generate sparks.
5. 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.
6. Do not place any heavy items on the power cord. Do
not allow the power cord to be crimped as it may
cause electric shock or fire.
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.
8. Do not disassemble the phone.
AX380_Eng_100.qxd 6/27/07 10:43 AM Page 2

Important Safety Precautions
1. Do not place or answer calls while charging the phone as
it may short-circuit the phone and/or cause electric
shock or fire.
2. Do not hold or let the antenna come in contact with
your body during a call.
3. Make sure that no sharp-edged items such as animal’s
teeth or nails, come into contact with the battery. This
could cause a fire.
4. Store the battery out of reach of children.
5. 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 resulting in serious injury or death.
6. Unplug the power cord and charger during lightning
storms to avoid electric shock or fire.
7. Only use the batteries and chargers provided by LG. The
warranty will not be applied to products provided by
other suppliers.
8. Only authorized personnel should service the phone and
its accessories. Faulty installation or service may result in
accidents and consequently invalidate the warranty.
9. 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.

Important Information
This user’s guide provides
important information on the use
and operation of your phone.
Please read all the information
carefully prior to using the
phone for the best performance
and to prevent any damage to or
misuse of the phone. Any
unapproved changes or
modifications will void your
warranty.
FCC Part 15 Class B
Compliance
This device and its accessories
comply with part 15 of FCC rules.
Operation is subject to the
following two conditions: (1) This
device and its accessories may not
cause harmful interference, and
(2) this device and its accessories
must accept any interference
received, including interference
that causes undesired operation.
Technical Details
The AX380 is an all digital phone
that operates on both Code
Division Multiple Access (CDMA)
frequencies: Cellular services at
800 MHz and Personal
Communication Services (PCS) at
1.9 GHz.
CDMA technology uses a feature
called DSSS (Direct Sequence
Spread Spectrum) that enables the
phone to keep communication from
being crossed and to use one
frequency channel by multiple users
in the same specific area. This results
in a 10-fold capacity increase when
compared with analog mode. In
addition, features such as soft /
softer handoff, hard handoff, and
dynamic RF power control
technologies combine to reduce call
interruptions.
The Cellular and PCS CDMA
networks consist of MSO (Mobile
Switching Office), BSC (Base
Station Controller), BTS (Base
Station Transmission System), and
MS (Mobile Station).

FCC RF Exposure Information
WARNING! Read this
information before operating the
phone.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.
Bodily Contact During
Operation
This device was tested for typical
use with the back of the phone
kept 0.6 inches (1.5 cm) from
the body. To comply with FCC
RF exposure requirements, a
minimum separation distance of
0.6 inches (1.5 cm) must be
maintained between the user’s
body and the back of the phone,
including the antenna, whether
extended or retracted. Third-
party belt-clips, holsters, and
similar accessories containing
metallic components should not
be used. Avoid the use of
accessories that cannot maintain
0.6 inches (1.5 cm) distance
between the user’s body and the
back of the phone and have not
been tested for compliance with
FCC RF exposure limits.
AX380_Eng_100.qxd 6/27/07 10:43 AM Page 12

Technical Details
Vehicle-Mounted External
Antenna
(Optional, if available.)
A minimum distance of 8 inches
(20cm) must be maintained
between the user / bystander
and the vehicle-mounted external
antenna to satisfy FCC RF
exposure requirements. For more
information about RF exposure,
visit the FCC website at
www.fcc.gov.
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 the skin a minor burn may
result. Contact your local dealer
for a replacement antenna.
