Important Safety Precautions

●When in a car, do not leave your phone or setup 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. (i.e.: aircraft, hospital).

●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 or greater than 122°F.

●Do not use harsh chemicals(i.e. 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 Battery Charger 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.

●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.

6 LG 325

Welcome

Congratulations for choosing the advanced and compact LG 325 cellular phone, designed to operate with the latest digital mobile communication technology, Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) and Advanced Mobile Phone Service (AMPS). Along with the many advanced features of the CDMA system, such as greatly enhanced voice clarity, this phone offers:

●Large, easy-to-read, 9-line backlight LCD with status icons.

●Paging, messaging, voice mail, and caller ID.

●22-key keypad.

●Menu-driven interface with prompts for easy operation and configuration.

●Any key answer, auto answer, auto retry, one-touch and speed dialing with 99 memory locations.

●Bilingual (English and French) capabilities.

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.

Industry Canada Compliance

This phone complies with Industry Canada RSS 133. This phone complies with the Class B limits for radio noise emissions as set out in the interference causing standard entitled "Digital Apparatus" ICES-003 of Industry Canada.

Technical Details

The LG 325 is an all digital phone that operates on both Code

Division Multiple Access (CDMA) frequencies: cellular services at 800 Mhz and Personal Communication Services

LG 325 7

Welcome

(PCS) at 1.9 Ghz. Also, the LG 325 works on Advanced Mobile Phone Service (AMPS). We call it a tri-mode phone. Since the phone operates on Cellular, PCS and AMPS, the call fail rate is less than on a conventional dualmode or singlemode 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). The following table lists some major CDMA standards.

*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.

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 3/4 inches (2 cm) from the body. To comply with IC and FCC RF exposure requirements, a minimum separation distance of 3/4 inches (2 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

3/4 inches (2 cm) distance between the user’s body and the back of the phone and have not been tested for compliance with IC and FCC RF exposure limits.

Vehicle-Mounted External Antenna

(Optional, if available.)

A minimum distance of 8 inches (20 cm) must be maintained between the user / bystander and the vehiclemounted external antenna to satisfy IC and 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.

Getting Started with Your Phone

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. While pressing the PUSH button on the back of the phone, pull the battery cover downward and remove it. Then remove the battery by pressing the upper area, and pulling the battery.

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 325 may damage your phone or battery.

1.Plug the end of the adapter into the phone’s charger jack and the other end into an electrical outlet.

2.The charge time varies depending upon the battery level. The maximum charge time for a fully discharged battery is 3.5 hours.

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 LOW BATTERY WARNING! If the battery charge level becomes exceedingly low, the phone automatically switches off and any function in progress is not saved.
