Guidelines for safe and efficient use Important information about the device • Device apps and services are subject to change or cancellation without notice, depending on the provider’s situation and the software version. • When the device is turned on for the first time, an initial configuration takes place. The first booting time may be longer than usual. Read before use • To purchase optional items, contact the LG Customer Information Centre for available dealers.
Turn off your phone in medical facilities or at gas stations. Never place your phone in microwaves, as it will cause the battery to explode. Important • Before using your phone, please read the SAFETY INFORMATION OF THE TELECOMMUNICATIONS INDUSTRY ASSOCIATION (TIA). Safety Information Read these simple guidelines. Breaking the rules may be illegal or dangerous. More detailed information is provided in this user’s guide.
• Do not use the phone in areas where its usage is prohibited. (For example: in airplanes). • Do not expose the battery charger or adapter to direct sunlight, or use it in places with high humidity, such as bathroom. • Never store your phone in temperatures lower than -20 °C or higher than 50 °C. • Do not use harsh chemicals (such as alcohol, benzene, solvents, etc.) or detergents to clean the phone. This could cause fire. • Do not drop the phone, strike it, or shake it hard.
Information about the RF exposure from FCC • 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 international and U.S. standards.
• Do not incinerate. Battery Disposal • Please dispose of your battery properly, or bring it to your wireless provider for recycling. • Do not dispose of your battery in fire or with hazardous or flammable materials. Adapter Precautions (Charger) • Using the wrong battery charger could damage your phone and void your warranty. • The adapter or battery charger is only designed for indoor use.
• For those host devices that utilize a USB port as a charging source, the host device’s user manual shall include a statement that the phone shall only be connected to products that bear the USB-IF logo or have completed the USB-IF compliance program. • Always unplug the charger from the wall socket after the phone is fully charged to save unnecessary power consumption of the charger. Avoid damage to your ear • Damage to your hear can occur due to constant exposure to excessive high sound.
Safety instructions TIA’s Safety Information This includes complete security information on wireless phones from TIA (Telecommunications Industry Association). It’s required, for CTIA Certification, the inclusion in the user manual of text covering pacemakers, hearing aids and other medical devices. It’s encouraged the use of the remaining TIA language when relevant. Exposure to Radio Frequency Signal Your wireless handheld portable telephone is a lowpower radio transmitter and receiver.
Suggestions for a more efficient operation For your phone to operate most efficiently: • Do not touch the antenna unnecessarily, when the phone is in use. The contact with the antenna affects call quality, and may cause the phone to operate at a higher power level than otherwise would be need. Driving Check the laws and regulations related to the use of wireless phones in the areas where you drive. Always obey these regulations.
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.
• Replace the battery when it no longer provides acceptable performance. The battery can be recharged several hundred times before replacement. • Charge the battery after long periods without use to maximize its life. • The battery life will vary depending on usage patterns and environmental conditions. • Intensive use of backlighting, browser, and packet data connectivity affect battery life and talk/standby times.
• When the phone has not been in use for a long time, store it in a safe place, with the power cord unplugged. • Using the phone close to a receiving equipment (such as TV or radio) may cause interference. • Do not immerse your phone in water. If this happens, immediately turn it off and remove the battery. If your phone does not work, take it to an LG Authorized Service Facility. • The power supply contains elements that could be harmful to your health, if components are handled directly.
Precautions when using memory cards • Make sure that the orientation is correct when inserting the memory card. Inserting using the wrong orientation may damage the card. Ambient temperatures Use your phone in temperatures between 0 ºC and 40 ºC, if possible. Exposing your phone to extremely low or high temperatures may result in damage, malfunction, or even explosion. Securing personal information • Make sure to protect your personal information to prevent data leakage or misuse of sensitive information.
