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.
