Important Safety Precautions
Read these simple guidelines. Breaking the rules may be dangerous
or illegal. Further detailed information is given in this user guide.

Violation of the instructions may cause serious injury or death.

● Never use an unapproved battery since this could


damage the phone and/or battery and could cause
the battery to explode.

● Never place your phone in a microwave oven as it will


cause the battery to explode.

● Never store your phone in temperatures less than


-4°F or greater than 122°F.

● Do not dispose of your battery near fire or with


hazardous or flammable materials.

● When riding in a car, do not leave your phone or set


up the hands-free kit near the air bag. If wireless
equipment is improperly installed and the air bag is
deployed, you may be seriously injured.

● Do not use a hand-held phone while driving.

● Do not use the phone in areas where its use is


prohibited. (For example: aircraft)

1
Important Safety Precautions
● Do not expose the battery charger or adapter to direct
sunlight or use it in places with high humidity, such as
a bathroom.

● Do not use harsh chemicals (such as alcohol,


benzene, thinners, etc.) or detergents to clean your
phone. This could cause a fire.

● Do not drop, strike, or shake your phone severely. It


may harm the internal circuit boards of the phone.

● Do not use your phone in high explosive areas as the


phone may generate sparks.

● Do not damage the power cord by bending, twisting,


pulling, or heating. Do not use the plug if it is loose as
it may cause electric shock or fire.

● Do not place any heavy items on the power cord. Do


not allow the power cord to be crimped as it may
cause electric shock or fire.

● Do not handle the phone with wet hands while it is


being charged. It may cause an electric shock or
seriously damage your phone.

● Do not disassemble the phone.

2
● Do not place or answer calls while charging the
phone as it may short-circuit the phone and/or cause
electric shock or fire.
● Do not hold or let the antenna come in contact with
your body during a call.
● Make sure that no sharp-edged items, such as
animal’s teeth or nails, come into contact with the
battery. This could cause a fire.
● Store the battery out of reach of children.
● Be careful that children do not swallow any parts
(such as earphone, connection parts of the phone,
etc.) This could cause asphyxiation or suffocation
resulting in serious injury or death.
● Unplug the power cord and charger during lightning
storms to avoid electric shock or fire.
● Only use the batteries and chargers provided by LG.
The warranty will not be applied to products provided
by other suppliers.
● Only authorized personnel should service the phone
and its accessories. Faulty installation or service may
result in accidents and consequently invalidate the
warranty.
● Your service provider programs one or more
emergency phone numbers, such as 911, that you can
call under any circumstances, even when your phone
is locked. Your phone’s preprogrammed emergency
number(s) may not work in all locations, and
sometimes an emergency call cannot be placed due
to network, environmental, or interference issues.

RSS (Really Simple Syndication) is a family of web feed formats used to

contains either a summary of content from an associated web site or the full
text. RSS makes it possible for people to keep up with their favorite web sites
in an automated manner that is easier than checking them manually.
To add an RSS feed, you must first be on a website that supports RSS. The
