Safety

Persons with pacemakers:

Should ALWAYS keep the phone more than six (6) inches from their pacemaker when the phone is turned ON;

Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket;

Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for interference;

Should turn the phone OFF immediately if there is any reason to suspect that interference is taking place.

Hearing Aids

Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some hearing aids. In the event of such interference, you may want to consult your service provider (or call the customer service line to discuss alternatives.) Optional for each phone manufacturer.

Other Medical Devices

If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of your device to determine if it is adequately shielded from external RF energy. Your physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this information.

Health Care Facilities

Turn your phone OFF in health care facilities when any regulations posted in these areas instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may use equipment that could be sensitive to external RF energy.

Vehicles

RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic systems in motor vehicles. Check with the manufacturer or its representative regarding your vehicle. You should also consult the manufacturer of any equipment that has been added to your vehicle.

Posted Facilities

Turn your phone OFF in any facility where posted notices so require.

Aircraft

FCC regulations prohibit using your phone while in the air. Switch OFF your phone before boarding an aircraft.

Blasting Areas

To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your phone OFF when in a “blasting area” or in areas posted: “Turn off two-way radio”. Obey all signs and instructions.

Potentially Explosive Atmosphere

Turn your phone OFF when in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere and obey all signs and instructions. Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death.

Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often, but not always marked clearly. Potential areas may include: fueling areas (such as gasoline stations); below deck on boats; fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities; vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas (such as propane or butane); areas where the air contains chemicals or particles (such as grain, dust, or metal powders) and any other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle engine.

For Vehicles Equipped with an Air Bag

An air bag inflates with great force. DO NOT place objects, including either installed or portable wireless equipment, in the area over the air bag or in the air bag deployment area. If in- vehicle wireless equipment is improperly installed and the air bag inflates, serious injury could result.

VX4500 specifications

The LG Electronics VX4500 is a significant mobile device that garnered attention when it was launched in the early 2000s, known for blending functionality with an appealing design. It primarily targeted users seeking reliability alongside a compact form factor.

One of the standout features of the VX4500 is its clamshell design, which not only protects the keypad and screen when closed but also delivers a sleek appearance. The phone incorporates a vibrant color display with a resolution of 128 x 160 pixels, providing clear visuals that enhance user experience, especially when navigating menus or viewing text messages.

Technologically, the VX4500 supports CDMA networks, enabling it to deliver robust voice quality and reliable connectivity. Additionally, it is equipped with a speakerphone feature, allowing for hands-free communication, which proved particularly useful for users on the go. The device also includes a vibrating alert option, ensuring users never miss important calls or messages, even in loud environments.

Another significant characteristic of the LG VX4500 is its camera functionality. The built-in VGA camera allows users to capture moments on the go, embracing the growing trend of mobile photography at that time. Although simple by today's standards, this feature was a noteworthy addition, providing users with the ability to share images quickly.

The VX4500 is powered by a long-lasting battery, which ensures extended talk time and standby time, making it an ideal choice for those who prioritize reliability in their mobile devices. With a battery life of up to 300 hours on standby and close to 4 hours of talk time, users could depend on the phone for their daily communication needs without frequent recharging.

In addition to its communication features, the VX4500 offers various utilities, including a calendar, alarm clock, and voice memo capabilities. These functionalities position it as not only a phone for calls but also a practical companion for organizing daily tasks.

Overall, the LG Electronics VX4500 encapsulates the core values of early 2000s mobile technology—durability, ease of use, and essential features—all packed into a pocket-friendly design.
