Important Safety Precautions

Read these simple guidelines. Breaking the 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.

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

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

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

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

●Store the battery in a place out of reach of children.

●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.

Important Safety Precautions

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

●When riding in a car, do not leave your phone or set up the hands-free kit near to or on 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. (For example: aircraft).

●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 -15°C or greater than 50°C.

●Do not use harsh chemicals (such as 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 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.

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

●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.

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 3300 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 LG 3300 works on Advanced Mobile Phone Service (AMPS). We call it a trimode phone. Since the phone operates on Cellular, PCS and AMPS, the call fail rate is less than on a conventional dual-mode or singlemode phone.

CDMA technology uses a feature called DSSS (Direct

LG 3300 7

Welcome

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 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 beltclips, 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 distance of 8 inches (20 cm) must be maintained between the user / bystander and the vehiclemounted 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.
