Safety

Do not disassemble the phone.

Do not place or answer calls while charging the phone as it may short-circuit the phone and/or cause electric shock or fire.

If you put your phone in a pocket or bag without covering the receptacle of the phone (power plug pin), metallic articles (such as a coin, paperclip or pen) may short-circuit the phone. Always cover the receptacle when not in use.

Do not short-circuit the battery. Metallic articles such as a coin, paperclip or pen in your pocket or bag may short-circuit the + and – terminals of the battery (metal strips on the battery) upon moving. Short-circuit of the terminal may damage the battery and cause an explosion.

Do not disassemble the battery as it may cause electric shock, short-circuit, or fire.

Do not expose the phone to excessive vibration or sharp impact.

Never place your phone in a microwave oven as it will cause the battery to explode.

General Warnings and Cautions

Store the battery in a place out of reach of children.

Using a damaged battery or placing a battery in your mouth may cause serious injury.

Do not place items containing magnetic components such as a credit card, phone card, bank book or subway ticket near your phone. The magnetism of the phone may damage the data stored in the magnetic strip.

Do not hold or let the antenna come in contact with your body during a call.

Talking on your phone for a long period of time may reduce call quality due to heat generated during use.

When the phone is not used for a long period time, store it in a safe place with the power cord unplugged.

Only use the batteries, antennas, and chargers provided by LG. The warranty will not be applied to products provided by other suppliers.

Using the phone in proximity to receiving equipment (i.e., TV or radio) may cause interference to the phone.

Only authorized personnel should service the phone and its accessories. Faulty installation or service may result in accidents and consequently invalidate the warranty.

Use only the antenna provided or approved by LG. Unauthorized antennas, modifications or attachments may affect the quality of phone call, damage the phone, or result in violation of FCC regulations.

Do not use the phone if the antenna is damaged. If a damaged antenna contacts skin, it may cause a slight burn. Please contact an LG Authorized Service Center to replace the damaged antenna.

Do not use the phone in areas where its use is prohibited. (For example: aircraft).

Do not expose the phone to high temperatures or high humidity.

Do not immerse your phone in water. If this happens, turn it off immediately and remove the battery. If the phone does not work, take it to an LG Authorized Service Center.
