●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.

●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 car 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 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.

Before You Start

Safety Instructions

WARNING! To reduce the possibility of electric shock, do not expose your phone to high humidity areas, such as the bathroom, swimming pool, etc.

Use only LG-approved batteries and travel chargers to avoid the damage to the phone. Using other batteries or chargers voids your warranty and may cause an explosion.

Do not use batteries and travel chargers for the other purposes other than their original purpose of using for the phone.

Always store your phone away from heat. Never store your phone in settings that may expose it to temperatures less than -20°C or greater than 50°C, such as outside during a snowstorm or in your car on a hot day. Exposure to excessive cold or heat will result in malfunction, damage and/or catastrophic failure.

Use caution when using your phone near other electronic devices. RF emissions from your mobile phone may affect nearby inadequately shielded electronic equipment. You should consult with manufacturers of any personal medical devices such

as pacemakers and hearing aids to determine if they are susceptible to interference from your mobile phone. Turn off your phone in a medical facility or at a gas station.

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

IMPORTANT! Please read the TIA Safety Information (on page 64) before using your phone.

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.

Body-worn Operation

This device was tested for typical body-worn operations with the back of the phone kept 2cm from the body. To comply with FCC RF exposure requirements, a minimum separation distance of 2cm must be maintained between the user’s body and the back of the phone, including the antenna. Third-party belt-clips, holsters, and similar accessories containing metallic components should not be used. Body-worn accessories that cannot maintain 2cm separation distance between the user’s body and the back of the phone, and have not been tested for typical bodyworn operations may not comply with FCC RF exposure limits and should be avoided.

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.
