WARNING! To reduce the possibility of electric shock, do not expose your phone to high humidity areas, such as a bathroom, swimming area, etc.

Caution: Use only LG-approved batteries and desktop chargers to avoid damage to the phone. Using other batteries or chargers voids your warranty and may cause an explosion.

Caution: Do not use batteries and desktop chargers for other than the intended purposes.

Never store your phone in temperatures less than -4° F or greater than 122° F, such as outside during a snowstorm or in your car on a hot day. Exposure to excessive cold or heat may result in phone malfunction, damage and/or failure.

Use caution when using your phone near other electronic devices. RF emissions from your mobile phone may affect nearby inadequately shielded electronic equipment. Consult manufacturers of any personal medical devices such as pacemakers and hearing aides to determine if they are susceptible to interference from your mobile phone. Turn off your phone in a medical facility or at a gas station.

IMPORTANT! Please read the TIA Safety Information (see page 118) before using your phone.
