Important Safety Precautions
Read these instructions. Breaking the rules may be dangerous or
illegal. Further detailed information is given in this user guide.
WARNING! Violation of the instructions may cause serious injury or
death.
1. Never use an unapproved battery since this could
damage the phone and/or battery and could cause
the battery to explode.
2. Never place your phone in a microwave oven as it will
cause the battery to explode.
3. Never store your phone in temperatures less than
-4°F or greater than 122°F.
4. Do not dispose of your battery by fire or with
hazardous or flammable materials.
5. 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
deployed, you may be seriously injured.
6. Do not use a hand-held phone while driving.
7. Do not use the phone in areas where its use is
prohibited. (For example: aircraft)
1
Important Safety Precautions
1. Do not expose the battery charger or adapter to direct
sunlight or use it in places with high humidity, such as
a bathroom.
2. Do not use harsh chemicals (such as alcohol, benzene,
thinners, etc.) or detergents to clean your phone. This
could cause a fire.
3. Do not drop, strike, or shake your phone severely. It
may harm the internal circuit boards of the phone.
4. Do not use your phone in high explosive areas as the
phone may generate sparks.
5. 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.
6. 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.
7. Do not handle the phone with wet hands while it is
being charged. It may cause an electric shock or
seriously damage your phone.
8. Do not disassemble the phone.
2
1. Do not place or answer calls while charging the phone as it may
short-circuit the phone and/or cause electric shock or fire.
2. Do not hold or let the antenna come in contact with your body
during a call.
3. 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.
4. Store the battery out of reach of children.
5. 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 resulting in serious
injury or death.
6. Unplug the power cord and charger during lightning storms to
avoid electric shock or fire.
7. Only use the batteries and chargers provided by LG. The
warranty will not be applied to products provided by other
suppliers.
8. Only authorized personnel should service the phone and its
accessories. Faulty installation or service may result in accidents
and consequently invalidate the warranty.
9. Your service provider programs one or more emergency phone
numbers, such as 911, that you can call under any
circumstances, 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

(FCC). All phones that are sold
in the United States must comply
with FCC safety guidelines that
limit RF exposure. The FCC relies
on the FDA and other health
agencies for safety questions
about wireless phones.
The FCC also regulates the base
stations that the wireless phone
networks rely upon. While these
base stations operate at higher
power than do the wireless
phones themselves, the RF
exposures that people get from
these base stations are typically
thousands of times lower than
those they can get from wireless
phones. Base stations are thus
not the subject of the safety
questions discussed in this
document.
These RF exposures are limited
by FCC safety guidelines that
were developed with the advice
of the FDA and other federal
health and safety agencies. When
the phone is located at greater
distances from the user, the
exposure to RF is drastically
lower because a person's RF
exposure decreases rapidly with

When operating a car, driving is
your first responsibility. When
using your wireless phone behind
the wheel of a car, practice good
common sense and remember
the following tips:

choose an installed mounted
device for your wireless phone
or a speaker phone accessory,
take advantage of these
devices if available to you.
3. Make sure you place your
wireless phone within easy
reach and where you can
reach it without removing
your eyes from the road. If
you get an incoming call at an
inconvenient time, if possible,
let your voicemail answer it for
you.
5. Don’t take notes or look up
phone numbers while driving.
If you are reading an address
book or business card, or
writing a “to-do” list while
driving a car, you are not
watching where you are going.
It is common sense. Do not
get caught in a dangerous
situation because you are

simple tip -- dial only a few
numbers, check the road and
your mirrors, then continue.
8. Use your wireless phone to call
for help. Your wireless phone is
one of the greatest tools you
can own to protect yourself
and your family in dangerous
situations -- with your phone
at your side, help is only three
numbers away. Dial 911 or
other local emergency number
in the case of fire, traffic
accident, road hazard, or
