Charging the Phone
Your phone comes with a USB Cable and a Charger Adapter which connect
together to charge your phone. Correctly orient the USB Cable plug before
inserting it in the USB/Charging Port to avoid damaging your phone.
NOTE Please only use an approved charging accessory to charge your LG phone. Improper
handling of the USB/Charging Port, as well as the use of an incompatible charger, may
cause damage to your phone and void the warranty.
1. Correctly orient the USB Cable with the Charger Adapter, and connect
them. As shown below, both the USB logo on the USB Cable and the LG
logo on the adapter will face toward you.

orient the plug with the port before plugging it in. As shown below, the
USB logo on the cable will face upward.
3. Plug the adapter into an electrical outlet to begin charging.
Charging with the USB Cable
NOTE Make sure to correctly orient the
plug with the port before plugging it in.
When the phone is facing upward, the USB
logo on the cable will also face upward.
USB Cable
You can use your computer to charge your phone. To be able to charge with
the USB Cable, you need to have the necessary USB drivers installed on
your PC first. Connect one end of the USB Cable to the USB/Charging Port
on your phone (as shown above) and connect the other end to a USB port
on your PC. It’s best to use the rear USB port when connecting to a desktop
PC. The USB hub should be powered by an external power source.
NOTE You may experience a slower charging rate when charging from your computer.
Optimizing Battery Life
You can extend your battery’s life between charges by turning off features
that run in the background. You can also monitor how apps and system
resources consume battery power.
Tips to extend the life of your battery
Reduce the screen brightness and set a shorter screen timeout.
Turn off radio communications (such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS, etc.) that
you’re not actively using. (Note that the GPS receiver is only turned on
when you’re using an app that makes use of it).
Turn off automatic syncing for Gmail, Calendar, Contacts, and other apps
if you don’t need it.
The Basics
Use the Battery saver feature (accessed in the Settings menu) to control
data activity, Wi-Fi connection, Bluetooth connection, and power used for
the phone such as screen brightness and notification light.
NOTE Allowing other devices to use your device's hotspot connection will drain your battery
more quickly.
To check the battery charge level
From the Home screen, tap the

To monitor and control what uses the battery
The Battery use screen allows you to see which apps are consuming the
most battery power. Information on this screen allows you to identify
downloaded apps you may want to turn off when not being used, so you
can get the most out of your battery power.
From the Home screen, tap the
phone > Battery > Battery use. The top of this screen displays a usage
graph and below it, battery usage times. It lists all of the apps or services
using battery power from the greatest amount of energy used to the
least amount.
Tap an app or service in the Battery use screen to see the details about
its power consumption, including either how long since last connected
to a power source or how long you were last running on battery power.
Different apps or services offer different kinds of information, and they
may even include options to modify the settings so you can reduce
power consumption by that app.

The Basics
Touchscreen
Your touchscreen provides an excellent way to interact with and use your
phone. With the touch of your finger, you can download and use available
apps, make menu selections, and access data saved to your phone.
The following terms are used for describing the different available actions
using the touchscreen:
Touch or tap A single finger touch selects items. For example, tap an
icon (e.g., an app, widget, or folder), tap words (e.g., menu selection or to
answer an on-screen question), or touch letters and numbers to type.
NOTE Don't press too hard on the touchscreen. It's sensitive enough to detect a light, firm tap.
Touch and hold Touch and hold an item on the screen by touching it and
not lifting your finger until an action occurs. For example, to open a
Context menu for editing a contact, touch and hold a contact entry until
the menu pops up.
Drag Touch and hold an item for a moment and then, without lifting your
finger
, move your finger on the screen until you reach the target position.
For example, you can drag items on the Home screen to reposition them.

The Basics
Swipe, slide, or flick Move your finger quickly across the surface of the
screen, without pausing when you first touch it (so you don’t drag an item
instead). For example, you can browse through the different Home
screens by swiping from left to right (and vise versa), slide the screen up
or down to scroll a list, or remove an app from the Recent apps screen by
flicking its graphic off the screen.
Double-tap Tap the screen twice quickly to zoom, highlight text, or turn
the screen off. For example, quickly double-tap a section of a web page to
zoom that section to fit the width of the screen and control the zoom in
Maps and in other apps. Double-tap a word to highlight it. Double-tap can
also activate the KnockON feature to turn the touchscreen on or off.
Pinch-to-zoom Use your index finger and thumb in a pinch motion (to
zoom out) or spread motion (to zoom in) when using Chrome, a map,
photos, the rear camera lens, the Contacts list, the Favorites list, the
Groups list, the Messaging list, a music list, and POLARIS Viewer 5
documents. Spread apart to make screen information larger (easier to see
and read), or pinch together to view more area and information. The pinch
gesture also changes the Home screen. Pinch in on the Home screen to
change to mini panel view, then spread apart to return to the normal
Home screen view. Spread apart on the normal Home screen to hide all of
your Home screen items, then pinch in to redisplay them.
