Important Safety Precautions
Read these instructions. Breaking the rules may be dangerous or illegal.
Further detailed information is given in this user guide.
Violation of the instructions may cause serious injury or death.
●
Never use an unapproved battery since this could damage
the phone and/or the battery and could cause the
battery to explode.
●
Never place your phone in a microwave oven as it will
cause the battery to explode.
●
Never store your phone in temperatures lower than
-4°F or higher than 122°F.
●
Do not dispose of your battery near fire or with
hazardous or flammable materials.
●
When riding in a car, do not leave your phone or set up
the hands-free kit near the air bag. If wireless equipment
is improperly installed and the air bag is deployed, you
may be seriously injured.

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.

●
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.

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.
Technical Details
The
LG OctaneTMis 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).
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.
EV-DO system is optimized for
data service and is much faster
than 1xRTT system in applicable
area.
The table on the following page
lists some major CDMA standards.

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 0.79 inches (2.0 cm) from

containing metallic components
should not be used. Avoid the use
of accessories that cannot maintain
0.79 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

Getting Started with Your Phone
NOTE
Using the phone with the adapter may
cause an abrupt reset if the phone does

1. Call <Name or Number>
Say "Call" and then call someone
simply by saying the phone
number or name. Please speak
clearly and exactly as entered in
your Contacts list. When you have
more than one contact number,
you can state the name and
number type for the contact (for
example, 'Call John Work').
2. Send Msg to <Name or
Number>
Say 'Send Message' and the voice
command will prompt you for the
type of message. After choosing
the message type, the system will
ask you for the contact name,
number or group. It will
automatically start a message. If
you say a full-sentence command,
such as 'Send Message to Bob', it
would automatically start a text
message without asking for the
message type. When using the
'Send Message' command, speak
clearly and say the number, group
name, or name exactly as it is
entered in your Contact list.
3. Go to <Menu>
The 'Go to' command allows you
to access a menu within the phone
(for example, 'Go to Calendar'). If
no menu option is stated, a list of
options will be provided.

The "Check" command allows you
to check out a wide range of items

RSS
RSS (Really Simple Syndication) is
a family of web feed formats used
to publish frequently updated
content such as blog entries, news
headlines or podcasts. An RSS
document, which is called a feed,
web feed, or channel, contains
either a summary of content from
an associated web site or the full
text. RSS makes it possible for
people to keep up with their
favorite web sites in an automated
manner that is easier than checking
them manually.
To add an RSS feed, you must first
be on a website that supports RSS.
When there are supported sites,
the Available Feeds menu bar is

20,000 cities, towns and
neighborhoods in North America
and over 200 country codes from
around the world - providing mobile
subscribers with a remarkably
accurate tool to help identify
incoming callers.
After the free trial period,
subscribers will receive a message to
