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.

|
|
|
4. Store the battery out of reach of children. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
6. Unplug the power cord and charger during lightning storms to avoid electric shock or fire. |
PRECAUTIONS |
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
5. Be careful that children do not swallow any parts. This could cause asphyxiation or suffocation |
|
|
|
||
|
|
resulting in serious injury or death. |
|
|
|
7. Only use the batteries and chargers provided by LG. The warranty will not be applied to products |

TECHNICAL DETAILS
Technical Details
The LG 245 is a trimode 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.
Also, the LG 245 works on Advanced Mobile Phone Service (Amps). Since this phone operates on these three Wireless networks the call fail rate is less than on a conventional dual-mode or single-mode phone.
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).
*TSB -74: Protocol between an IS-95A system and ANSI J-STD-008
1xRTT system receives twice as many subscribers in the wireless section as IS-95. Its battery life is twice as long as IS-95. High-speed data transmission is also possible.

FCC RF Exposure Information |
|
|
WARNING! Read this information before operating |
|
|
|
|
|
the phone. |
TECHNICAL |
safety standard for human exposure to Radio Frequency |
|
|
|
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 |
DETAILS |
(RF) electromagnetic energy emitted by FCC regulated |
|
safety standard previously set by U.S., Canada and |
||
|
|
transmitters. Those guidelines are consistent with the |
|
|
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.
Vehicle-Mounted External Antenna
(Optional, if available.)
A minimum separation distance of 8 inches (20 cm) 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.

The Battery
Note
It is important to fully charge the battery before initial use of the phone.
The phone comes with a rechargeable battery. Keep the battery charged while not in use in order to maximize talk and standby time. The battery charge level is shown at the top of the LCD screen.
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 battery and push it slightly upwards.
Removing the Battery
Turn the power off. Pull the battery cover downward and remove it. Then remove the battery by pressing the upper area of it.
Charging the Battery
To use the charger provided with your phone:
WARNING! Use only the charger provided with the phone. Using any charger other than the one included with the LG 245 may damage your phone or battery.
1.Plug the end of the adapter into the phone's charger port and the other end into an electrical outlet.
2.The charge time varies depending upon the battery level.
Battery Charge Level
The battery charge level is shown at the top right of the LCD screen. When the battery charge level becomes low, the low battery sensor alerts you in three ways: sounding an audible tone, blinking the battery icon, and displaying Battery Low. If the battery charge level becomes exceedingly low, the phone automatically switches off and any function in progress is not saved.

Signal Strength
Call quality depends on the signal strength in your area. The signal strength is indicated on the screen as the number of bars next to the signal strength icon: The more bars, the better the signal strength. If the signal quality is poor, move to an open area. If you are in a building, the reception may be better near a window.
