Getting Started

Installing the micro SIM card

Before you can start exploring your new phone, you’ll need to set it up. The micro SIM card tray eject button is a small round aperture just above the tray door. To install a new micro SIM card:
1 Insert the micro SIM ejection tool that
comes with the phone (or a thin pin) into the eject button aperture and push gently but firmly until the tray pops out. Then pull the micro SIM card tray.
Eject button aperture
2 Position the micro SIM card into the tray (as
shown in the above image).
3 Insert the micro SIM card tray.
%
NOTE
Turn the phone off before inserting or removing the micro SIM card.
%
Warning
Always be careful when removing the micro SIM card tray. The ejection tool is very sharp.

Charging your phone

1 Connect the wall adapter and USB cable as
shown below. The USB symbol on the USB cable should face toward you.
2 Plug the USB cable (as shown below) into
the phone's Charger/Accessory Port. Make sure the USB symbol is facing upwards.
Always unplug the charger from the wall socket after the phone is fully charged to save unnecessary power consumption of the charger.
15
Getting Started
%
NOTE
The battery must be fully charged initially to improve battery lifetime. Your phone has an internal antenna. Be careful not to scratch or damage this rear area, as that will cause loss of performance. When the battery becomes fully discharged and you connect the phone to a charger, the Notification LED lights will blink. This is normal operation for a completely discharged battery to prevent overflowing current because the phone is designed to provide reasonable protection against damage to the battery. Once the battery has enough charge, the screen will turn on and display a battery image.
%
Warning
Use only LG-approved chargers, batteries
and cables. When using unapproved chargers or cables, it may cause slow charging. Or, unapproved chargers or cables can cause the battery to explode or damage the device, which are not covered by the warranty.
Charging may be interrupted when you use a USB hub, which is not retained rated voltage.
%
NOTE Non-Removable Battery
Your phone has an internal, rechargeable battery that should be replaced only by LG or an authorized LG repair center. You should never try to open or take apart this phone yourself. Opening the phone can cause damage that will void your warranty.

Switching between and exiting applications

Multi-tasking is easy with Android because open applications keep running even when you open another application. There is no need to quit an application before opening another. Use and switch among several open applications. Android manages each application, stopping and starting them as needed, to ensure that idle applications don’t consume resources unnecessarily.

Switching between applications
Touch and hold the Home Key . A list of recently used applications will be displayed. Then tap the application you want to access.
To remove an application from the list, swipe the app preview to the left or right.
