Please follow these simple guidelines. Breaking these rules
may be dangerous or illegal. Further detailed information is
given in this user guide.

WARNING! Violation of the instructions may

cause serious injury or death.

1. Never use an unapproved battery since
this could damage the phone and/or
battery and could cause the battery to
explode.

2. Never place your phone in a microwave
oven as it will cause the battery to
explode.

3. Do not dispose of your battery by fire or
with hazardous or flammable materials.

4. Make sure that no sharp-edged items (such
as an animal’s teeth or nails) come into
contact with the battery. There is a risk of
this causing a fire.

5. Store the battery out of reach of children.

6. Small parts are a choking hazard. Always
exercise caution around small children.

Some of contents in this user guide may be
different from your phone depending on the
software of the phone or your service provider.
Features and specifications might be subject to
change without prior notice.

PRECAUTIONS

SAFETY

DM-L200_LGManual_1.1.qxd 9/18/06 5:03 PM Page 5

1. Unplug the power cord and charger during
lightning storms to avoid electric shock or fire.

2. When in a car, do not leave your phone or set up
the hands-free kit near the air bag. If wireless
equipment is improperly installed and the air
bag is activated, you could be seriously injured.

3. Do not use a handheld phone while driving.

4. Do not use the phone in areas where its use is
prohibited (i.e.: aircraft, hospital).

5. Do not expose the battery charger or adapter to
direct sunlight or use it in places with high
humidity, such as a bathroom.

6. Never store your phone in temperatures less
than 5°F (-15°C) or greater than 122°F (50°C).

7. Do not use harsh chemicals (i.e.: alcohol,
benzene, thinners, etc.) or detergents to clean
your phone. This may cause a fire.

8. Do not drop, strike, or shake your phone
severely. Such actions may harm the internal
circuit boards of the phone.

9. Do not use your phone in high explosive areas.

10. Do not damage the power cord by bending,

twisting, pulling or heating. Do not use the
Battery Charger if it is loose as it may cause a
fire or electric shock.

PRECAUTIONS

SAFETY

DM-L200_LGManual_1.1.qxd 9/18/06 5:03 PM Page 6

1. 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.

2. Do not handle the phone with wet hands while it is
being charged. It may cause an electric shock or
seriously damage your phone.

3. Do not disassemble the phone.

4. Do not place or answer calls while charging the
phone as it may short-circuit the phone and/or
cause electric shock or fire.

5. Only use the batteries, antennas and chargers
provided by LG. The warranty will not be applied to
products provided by other suppliers.

6. Only authorized personnel should service the
phone and its accessories. Faulty installation or
service may result in accidents or invalidate the
warranty.

7. Do not hold or let the antenna come in contact
with your body during a call.

8. 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.

Congratulations for choosing the advanced and compact
DM-L200 cellular phone, designed to operate with the latest
digital mobile communication technology, Code Division
Multiple Access (CDMA). Along with the many advanced
features of the CDMA system, such as greatly enhanced
voice clarity, this phone offers:

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

2. Paging, messaging, voicemail and caller ID.

3. 21-key keypad.

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

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

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 DM-L200 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.
Also, the DM-L200 works on Advanced Mobile Phone Service
(AMPS). We call it a tri-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.

DM-L200_LGManual_1.1.qxd 9/18/06 5:03 PM Page 10

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 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
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.

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.
