If you want to use this device when its use is restricted on board an aircraft, remember to switch to Airplane Mode which turns off RF functions that could cause interference.
ENVIRONMENT RESTRICTIONS
Do not use this product in gas stations, fuel depots, chemical plants or where blasting operations are in progress, or in potentially explosive atmospheres such as fuelling areas, fuel storehouses, below deck on boats, chemical plants, fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities, and areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders. Please be aware that sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death.
EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERES
When in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere or where flammable materials exist, the product should be turned off and the user should obey all signs and instructions. Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death. Users are advised not to use the equipment at refueling points such as service or gas stations, and are reminded of the need to observe restrictions on the use of radio equipment in fuel depots, chemical plants, or where blasting operations are in progress.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR RF EXPOSURE
Avoid using your phone near metal structures (for example, the steel frame of a building).
Avoid using your phone near strong electromagnetic sources, such as microwave ovens, sound speakers, TV and radio.
Use only original manufacturer-approved accessories, or accessories that do not contain any metal.
Use of non-original manufacturer-approved accessories may violate your local RF exposure guidelines and should be avoided.
INTERFERENCE WITH MEDICAL EQUIPMENT FUNCTIONS
This product may cause medical equipment to malfunction. The use of this device is prohibited in most hospitals and medical clinics. If you use any personal medical device(s), consult the manufacturer of your device(s) to determine if they are adequately shielded from external RF energy. Your physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this information. Turn your phone OFF in health care facilities when any regulations posted in these areas instruct you to do so.

Important Health Information and Safety Precautions
NON-IONIZING RADIATION
Your device has an internal antenna. This product should be operated in its normal-use position to ensure the radiative performance and safety from interference. As with other mobile radio transmitting equipment, users are advised that for satisfactory operation of the equipment and for personal safety, it is recommended that no part of the human body be allowed to come too close to the antenna during operation of the equipment. Use only the supplied integral antenna. Use of unauthorized or modified antennas may impair call quality and damage the phone, causing loss of performance and SAR levels exceeding the recommended limits as well as result in non-compliance with local regulatory requirements in your country. To assure optimal phone performance and ensure human exposure to RF energy is within the guidelines set forth in the relevant standards, always use your device only in its normal-use position. Contact with the antenna area may impair call quality and cause your device to operate at a higher power level than needed. Avoiding contact with the antenna area when the phone is IN USE optimizes the antenna performance and the battery life.

1.1 About Your Phone
Your LG FATHOM™Global Phone allows you to keep in touch with friends and family back home when traveling to another country or outside your network carrier service area. There's no need to purchase or lease another cell phone because your LG FATHOM
Global Phone covers all the bases by
incorporating a SIM slot into its CDMA architecture.
Now when you travel outside the range of the Verizon CDMA coverage area or roam internationally, you can use the pre-installed GSM SIM card to access wireless services to make calls, send email messages, browse the Internet and more using GSM network technology. Don’t worry—you’re connected!

2. Push the microSD card into the slot with its gold contacts facing down until it clicks into place and then replace the slot cover.
1.6 Charging the Battery
Your LG FATHOM™Global Phone device comes with a cableless wall adapter and a USB data cable which connect together to charge your phone. To charge your phone:
NOTICE
Please use only an approved charging accessory to charge your LG phone. Improper handling of the charging port, as well as the use of an incompatible charger, may cause damage to your phone and void the warranty.
1. Connect the cableless wall adapter and USB data cable. When connecting as shown, the LG logo on the USB cable should face toward you.
2. Gently uncover the accessory charging port, then plug the end of the AC adapter into the phone’s charger port and the other end into an electrical outlet.
NOTICE
Please make sure that the side with the USB symbol faces up before inserting a charger or data cable into the charger port of your phone.
3. The charge time varies depending upon the battery level.
Battery Charge Level
