<![endif]>Precautions Safety tant Impor

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

2.Do not use harsh chemicals (such as alcohol, benzene, thinners, etc.) or detergents to clean your phone. This could cause a fire.

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.

2

LG280(Bell)_Eng_0813.qxd 8/13/08 9:10 AM Page 3

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

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

3.Make sure that no sharp-edged items such as animal’s teeth or nails, come into contact with the battery. This could cause a fire.

4.Store the battery out of reach of children.

5.Be careful that children do not swallow any parts (such as rubber plugs, earphone, connection parts of the phone, etc.) This could cause asphyxiation or suffocation resulting in serious injury or death.

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

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

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

9.Your service provider programs one or more emergency phone numbers, such as 911, that you can call under any circumstances, even when your phone is locked. Your phone’s preprogrammed emergency number(s) may not work in all locations, and sometimes an emergency call cannot be placed due to network, environmental, or interference issues.

Technical Details

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.

	<![if ! IE]> <![endif]>Technical		FCC Part 15 Class B
	<![if ! IE]> <![endif]>Details		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.

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

10

LG280(Bell)_Eng_0813.qxd 8/13/08 9:10 AM Page 11

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 0.9 inches (2.0 cm) from the body. To comply with FCC RF exposure requirements, a minimum separation distance of 0.9 inches (2.0 cm) must be maintained between the user’s body and the back of the phone, including the antenna, whether extended or retracted. Thirdparty belt-clips, holsters and similar accessories containing metallic components should not

be used. Avoid the use of accessories that cannot maintain 0.9 inches (2.0 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.
