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,
thinners, etc.) or detergents 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 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 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.
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.
Do not use your device for long periods of time while a
part of your body is making direct contact with it. The
temperature of the product may increase during normal
operation and this may result in harming or burning your
skin.
