Guidelines for safe and efficient use Important Information This user's guide contains important information about the use and operation of this phone. Read all information carefully for optimal performance and to avoid any damage or misuse of the phone. Any changes or modifications not expressly approved in this user's guide could void your warranty for this equipment.
Safety Information Read these simple guidelines. Breaking the rules may be illegal or dangerous. More detailed information is provided in this user's guide. • Never use an unapproved battery that could cause damages to the phone or the battery itself, or even explode. • Never place your phone in a microwave oven, as this will result in an explosion of the battery. • Do not dispose of your battery in fire or with hazardous or flammable materials.
• • • • • • • • • • Do not use your phone in high explosive areas, as this may generate sparks. Do not damage the power cord by bending, twisting, pulling, or heating it. Do not use the plug if it is loose as it may cause fire or electric shock. Do not handle the phone with wet hands while it is charging. This can cause electric shock or seriously damage your phone. Do not disassemble the phone.
Information about the RF exposure from FCC • 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 96-502, 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 international and U.S. standards.
Accessories worn close to the body, without keeping a minimum distance of 1 cm (0.39 inch) between the user's body and the back of the phone, and that have not been tested for typical body operation, may not comply with FCC's RF exposure limits and should be avoided. Class B Compliance under article 15 of the FCC This device and its accessories comply with Article 15 of the FCC rules.
Cautions for Battery • • • • • • • • • • • • Do not disassemble or open crush, bend or deform, puncture or shred. Do not modify or remanufacture, attempt to insert foreign objects into the battery, immerse or expose to water or other liquids, expose to fire, explosion or other hazard. Only use the battery for the system for which it is specified. Only use the battery with a charging system that has been qualified with the system per this standard.
Avoid damage to your ear • • Damage to your hear can occur due to constant exposure to excessive high sound. We, therefore, recommend that you do not turn on or off the phone near your ear. We also recommend you be reasonable with the music and volume level. If you listen to music, please ensure that the volume level is adequate, so that you are aware of your surroundings. This is particularly important when attempting to cross a street.
Those standards were based on comprehensive and periodic evaluations of the relevant scientific literature. For example, over 120 scientists, engineers, and physicians from universities, government health agencies, and industry reviewed the available body of research to develop the ANSI Standard (C95.1). * American National Standards Institute; National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements; International Commission on NonIonizing Radiation Protection.
Driving Check the laws and regulations related to the use of wireless phones in the areas where you drive. Always obey these regulations. Also, if using your phone while driving, make sure to: • Pay full attention to driving; driving safely is your first responsibility; • Use hands-free operation, if available; • Pull off the road and park, before making or answering a call, if driving conditions demand so. Electronic Devices Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF signals.
Hearing Aids Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some hearing aids. In the event of such interference, we recommend that you contact your service provider. Other Medical Devices If you use any other personal medical devices, consult your device manufacturer to determine if they are adequately shielded from external RF energy. Your doctor can help you obtain this information. Health Care Facilities Turn off your phone in health care facilities, whenever there are signs asking you to do so.
Potentially Explosive Atmosphere Turn off the phone when in an area with a potentially explosive atmosphere, and obey all signs and instructions. Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire that could result in personal injury or death. Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often clearly marked, but not always.
Charger, Adapter and Battery Security • • • • • • • • • • • The charger and adapter are designed only for indoor use. Dispose of your battery properly, or bring it to your wireless provider for recycling. The battery doesn't need to be fully discharged before recharging. Only use LG approved chargers that are specifically made for your phone model, since they are designed to maximize the battery life. Do not disassemble or short-circuit it. Keep the metal contacts on the battery clean.
• Do not short-circuit the battery. Metal items, such as coins, paper clips, or pens, in your pocket or bag may cause a shortcircuit between the + and - terminals of the battery (metal strips on the battery). The short-circuit of the terminals may damage the battery and cause an explosion. General Notice • • • • • • • • • • Using a damaged battery, or inserting it into the mouth can cause serious injuries.
• • • When using the phone in public places, you may set the ringer on vibrate to avoid disturbing others. Do not switch the phone on/off while it is in your ear. Repairs under warranty, at LG's discretion, may include replacement parts or boards that are either new or reconditioned, provided that they have functionality equal to that of the parts being replaced. Ambient temperatures Use your phone in temperatures between 0 ºC and 40 ºC, if possible.
FCC Part 15.21 statement Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate this equipment. Body-worn Operation This device was tested for typical body-worn operations with the back of the phone kept 0.39 inches (1cm) from the body. To comply with FCC RF exposure requirements, a minimum separation distance of 0.39 inches (1cm) must be maintained between the user’s body and the back of the phone.
