5 Important Information This user guide contains important information on the use and operation of this phone. Please read all the information carefully for optimal performance and to prevent any damage to or misuse of the phone. Any changes or modifications not expressly approved in this user guide could void your warranty for this equipment. Before You Start Safety Instructions WARNING To reduce the possibility of electric shock, do not expose your phone to high humidity areas, such as the bathroom, swimming pool, etc. Always store your phone away from heat. Never store your phone in settings that may expose it to temperatures less than 32°F (0°C) or greater than 104°F (40°C), such as outside during extreme weather conditions or in your car on a hot day. Exposure to excessive cold or heat will result in malfunction, damage and/or catastrophic failure. Be careful when using your phone near other electronic devices. RF emissions from your mobile phone may affect nearby inadequately shielded electronic equipment. You should consult with manufacturers of any personal medical devices such as pacemakers and hearing aides to determine if they are susceptible to interference from your mobile phone. Turn off your phone in a medical facility or at a gas station. Never place your phone in a microwave oven as this will cause the battery to explode. For Your Safety
6 For Your Safety Safety Information Read these simple guidelines. Breaking the rules may be dangerous or illegal. Further detailed information is given in this user guide. • 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.• Your phone contains an internal battery. Do not dispose of your battery by fire or with hazardous or flammable materials. • Make sure that no sharp-edged items come into contact with the battery. There is a risk of this causing a fire. • Store the battery in a place out of reach of children.• Be careful that children do not swallow any parts such as rubber plugs (earphone, connection parts of the phone, etc.). This could cause asphyxiation or suffocation. • Unplug the power cord and charger during lightning storms to avoid electric shock or fire. • When riding in a car, do not leave your phone or set up the hands-free kit near to the air bag. If wireless equipment is improperly installed and the air bag is activated, you may be seriously injured. • Do not use a hand-held phone while driving.• Do not use the phone in areas where its use is prohibited. (For example: aircraft).• Do not expose the battery charger or adapter to direct sunlight or use it in places with high humidity, such as a bathroom. • Never store your phone in temperatures less than -4 °F (-20 °C) or greater than 122 °F (50 °C).
7 • Do not use harsh chemicals (such as alcohol, benzene, thinners, etc.) or detergents to clean your phone. There is a risk of this causing a fire. • Do not drop, strike, or shake your phone severely. Such actions may harm the internal circuit boards of the phone. • 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 a fire or electric shock.• Do not place any heavy items on the power cord. Do not allow the power cord to be crimped as it may cause fire or electric shock. • 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. • Only use the batteries, antennas, 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. • Do not hold or let the antenna come in contact with your body during a call.• An emergency call can be made only within a service area. For an emergency call, make sure that you are within a service area and that the phone is turned on. • Use accessories, such as earphones and headsets, with caution. Ensure that cables are tucked away safely and do not touch the antenna unnecessarily.
8 For Your Safety 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. CAUTION Use only the supplied and approved antenna. Use of unauthorized antennas or modifications could impair call quality, damage the phone, void your warranty and/or result in violation of FCC regulations. Do not use the phone with a damaged antenna. If a damaged antenna comes into contact with skin, a minor burn may result. Contact your local dealer for a replacement antenna. Body-worn Operation This device was tested for typical body-worn operations with the back of the phone kept 1 cm (0.39 inches) between the user’s body and the back of the phone. To comply with FCC RF exposure requirements, a minimum separation distance of 1 cm (0.39 inches) must be maintained between the user's body and the back of the phone. Third-party belt-clips, holsters, and similar accessories containing metallic components may not be used.
9 Body-worn accessories that cannot maintain 1 cm (0.39 inches) separation distance between the user's body and the back of the phone, and have not been tested for typical bodyworn operations may not comply with FCC RF exposure limits and should be avoided. Vehicle Mounted External Antenna (optional, if available) A minimum separation distance of 20 cm (8 inches) must be maintained between the user/bystander and the vehicle mounted external antenna to satisfy FCC RF exposure requirements. For more information about RF exposure, visit the FCC website at www.fcc.gov FCC Part 15 Class B Compliance This device complies with part 15 of FCC rules and ICES-003 Class B digital apparatus requirements for Industry Canada. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. Cautions for Battery • Do not disassemble.• Do not short-circuit.• Do not expose to high temperature: 140°F (60°C).• Do not incinerate.
10 For Your Safety Battery Disposal • Please dispose of your battery properly or bring to your local wireless carrier for recycling. • Your phone contains an internal battery. Do not dispose of your battery by fire or with hazardous or flammable materials. Adapter (Charger) Cautions • Using the wrong battery charger could damage your phone and void your warranty.• The adapter or battery charger is intended for indoor use only. • Do not expose the adapter or battery charger to direct sunlight or use it in places with high humidity, such as the bathroom. Avoid damage to your hearing • Damage to your hearing can occur if you are exposed to loud sounds for long periods of time. We therefore recommend that you do not turn on or off the handset close to your ear. We also recommend that music and call volumes are set to a reasonable level. • If you are listening to music whilst out and about, please ensure that the volume is at a reasonable level so that you are aware of your surroundings. This is particularly imperative when attempting to cross the street.
