Important Safety Precautions

Read these simple guidelines. 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 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 less than

-4°F or greater 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.

●

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 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.

●

Do not hold or let the antenna come in contact with your body during a call.

●

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.

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 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

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 wall charger and USB data cable. When connecting as shown below, the LG logo on the USB cable should face toward you.

2. Plug the end of the AC adapter into the phone's charger port and the other end into an electrical outlet.

NOTICE

LG symbol should face down.

3. The charge time varies depending upon the battery level.

Charging with USB

You can use your computer to charge your phone. Connect one end of the USB cable to the charging accessory port on your phone and the other end to a highpower USB port on your PC (commonly located on the front panel or backside of the computer). If you get an error syncing with front USB port, use the port on the back panel.

NOTE

Lower USB port is not supported,

such as the USB port on your

keyboard or bus-powered USB hub.

Battery Temperature Protection

If the battery gets overheated, the phone will automatically turn off. When you turn the phone back on, a message pops up alerting you that the phone was powered off for your safety.

Song files downloaded or otherwise purchased from third party providers and stored on a MicroSD™ card inserted into this device may be protected or encrypted by such provider and cannot be played on this device.

Battery Charge Level

Signal Strength

Call quality depends on the signal strength in your area.
