Quick Start Guide
• Depending on the software installed or your service provider or country,
some of the descriptions in this guide may not match your phone exactly.
• Depending on your country, your phone and accessories may appear
different from the picture in this guide.
Installing the Battery
To install the battery, insert the battery into the opening on the back of the
phone. Put the battery cover on the phone and slide it downwards until it
locks into place.
Removing the Battery
1. With your phone turned off, push forward from the bottom of the battery cover
(1) on the back of your phone, slide the battery cover up and lift off (2).
2. Lift the battery up (1) and away (2) from the phone, as shown.
Replacing the Battery
1. To reinstall the battery, align the battery contacts (1) with those in the battery
compartment. Press the battery down until it clicks into place (2).
2. With the battery in position in the phone, replace the battery cover on the
back of your phone.
Charging the Battery
Your phone is powered by a rechargeable Li-ion battery. Use the wall charger to
charge the battery, and use only LG approved batteries and chargers.
Note: You must fully charge te battery before using your phone for the first time. A fully dis-
charged battery requires up to 4 hours of charge time.
ote:For connection to an electrical supply not located in the U.S., you must use an adapter of
N
the proper configuration for the power outlet. Using the wrong adaptor can damage your phone
and void your warranty.
1. Open the cover on the accessory port on the right side of the phone and plug
the wall charger connector into the jack. Be sure to orient the connector as
shown to avoid damaging your phone.
2. Plug the charger into a standard AC wall outlet.
3. When the phone is completely charged( ), unplug the charger from the
wall outlet.
4. Remove the charger from the phone by gently pulling out the connector.
Replace the plastic cover over the open jack.
Important: The battery charging function may stop when you are on a call, to avoid damage to the
battery. Do not remove the battery from the phone while charging and make sure the wall charger
is disconnected from the phone before removing the battery.
Please make sure that the 'B' side
of the connector is facing up.

to your phone model.
The following is the complete TIA Safety Information for wireless handheld phones.
Antenna Care
Use only the supplied or an approved replacement antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments could damage the phone and may violate FCC regulations.
Phone Operation
NORMAL POSITION: Hold the phone as you would any other telephone with the antenna
pointed up and over your shoulder.
Tips on Efficient Operation
For your phone to operate most efficiently:
Don’t touch the antenna unnecessarily when the phone is in use. Contact with the antenna
affects call quality and may cause the phone to operate at a higher power level than otherwise needed.
Driving
Check the laws and regulations on the use of wireless phones in the areas where you drive
and always obey them. Also, if using your phone while driving, please observe the following:
●
Give full attention to driving -- driving safely is your first responsibility;
●
Use hands-free operation, if available;
●
Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call if driving conditions or the law
require it.
Electronic Devices
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF signals. However, certain electronic
equipment may not be shielded against the RF signals from your wireless phone.
Pacemakers
The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that a minimum separation of
six (6) inches be maintained between a handheld wireless phone and a pacemaker to avoid
potential interference with the pacemaker. These recommendations are consistent with the
independent research by and recommendations of Wireless Technology Research.
Persons with pacemakers:
●
Should ALWAYS keep the phone more than six (6) inches from their pacemaker when the
phone is turned ON;
●
Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket;
●
Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to
minimize the potential for interference;
●
Should turn the phone OFF immediately if there is any reason to suspect that interference is
aking place.
t
Hearing Aids
Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some hearing aids. In the event of such interference, you may want to consult your service provider (or call the customer service line to
discuss alt
erna
tives).
This Model Phone Meets the Government’s Requirements for Exposure to Radio Waves. Your
wireless phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and manufactured not to
exceed the emission limits for exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) energy set by the Federal
Communications Commission of the U.S. Government. These limits are part of comprehensive
guidelines and establish permitted levels of RF energy for the general population. The guidelines are based on standards that were developed by independent scientific organizations
through periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. The standards include a substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of age and health.
The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones employs a unit of measurement known as
the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 1.6 W/kg. Tests for SAR
are conducted using standard operating positions specified by the FCC with the phone transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands. Although SAR is determined at the highest certified power level, the actual SAR level of the phone while operating
can be well below the maximum value. Because the phone is designed to operate at multiple
power levels to use only the power required to reach the network, in general, the closer you are
to a wireless base station antenna, the lower the power output.
Before a phone model is available for sale to the public, it must be tested and certified to the
FCC that it does not exceed the limit established by the government-adopted requirement for
safe exposure. The tests are performed in positions and locations (e.g., at the ear and worn on
the body) as required by the FCC for each model.
The highest SAR value for this model phone when tested for use at the ear is 1.3 W/kg and
when worn on the body, as described in this user guide, is 0.886 W/kg (body-worn measurements differ among phone models, depending upon available accessories and FCC requirements). While there may be differences between SAR levels of various phones and at various
positions, they all meet the government requirement for safe exposure.
The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model phone with all reported SAR
levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF emission guidelines. SAR information on this
model phone is on file with the FCC and can be found under the Display Grant section of
http://www.fcc.gov/oet/fccid after searching on FCC ID BEJLG200CM. Additional information
on Specific Absorption Rates (SAR) can be found on the Cellular Telecommunications Industry
Association (CTIA) website at http://www.ctia.org.
* In the United States and Canada, the SAR limit for mobile phones used by the public is 1.6
watts/kg (W/kg) averaged over one gram of tissue. The standard incorporates a substantial
margin of safety to give additional protection for the public and to account for any variations
in measurements.
