Important Safety Precautions

●

Do not expose the battery charger or adapter to direct

sunlight or use it in places with high humidity, such as a bathroom.

●

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

●

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

●

Do not use your phone in highly 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 electric shock or fire.

●

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.

●

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.

LG Cosmos

●

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

●

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.

●

Store the battery out of reach of children.

●

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

●

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

●

Only use the batteries 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.

●

Your service provider programs one or more emergency phone numbers, such as 911, that you can call under any circumstance, 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.

http://www.verizonwireless.com

2. Hover over the Support tab, click on Phones & Devices.

3. Select LG from the Phone/Device manufacturer drop-down menu.

4. Select this model from the Model drop-down menu.

Important Information

This user’s guide provides important information on the use and operation of your phone. Please read this guide carefully prior to using the phone to be able to use your phone to its greatest advantage and to prevent any accidental damage or misuse. 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.

Information to User

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation.

This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.

However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is

LG Cosmos

Technical Details

encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna

- Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver

- Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that which the receiver is connected.

- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

Modifications not expressly approved by the manufacturer could void the user’s authority to operated the equipment under FCC rules.

Technical Details

The

LG Cosmos

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. 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.

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).

* TSB -74: Protocol between an IS95A 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.

The following table lists some major CDMA standards.

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 0.78 inches (2 cm) from the body. To comply with FCC RF exposure requirements, a minimum separation distance of 0.78 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

LG Cosmos

Technical Details

containing metallic components should not be used. Avoid the use of accessories that cannot maintain

0.78 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.) To satisfy FCC RF exposure

requirements, keep 8 inches (20 cm) between the user / bystander and vehicle-mounted external antenna. For more information about RF exposure, visit the FCC website at www.fcc.gov.

Caution

Use only the supplied antenna. Use of unauthorized antennas (or modifications to the antenna) could impair call quality, damage the phone, void your warranty and/or violate FCC regulations.

Don't use the phone with a damaged antenna. A damaged antenna could cause a minor skin burn.

Contact your local dealer for a replacement antenna.
