Explosion, Shock, and Fire Hazards
Check the laws and regulations on the use of wireless phones in the areas where you drive and
always obey them. Also, if using your phone while driving, please observe the following:
Do not put your phone in a place subject to excessive dust and keep the minimum
required distance between the power cord and heat sources.
Unplug the power cord prior to cleaning your phone, and clean the power plug pin when
it‘s dirty.
When using the power plug, ensure that it‘s firmly connected. If not, it may cause
excessive heat 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 and may cause an 37 explosion. Always cover the receptacle when not in use.
Don‘t short-circuit the battery. Metallic articles such as a coin, paperclip or pen in your
pocket or bag or contact with sharp objects including animal bites 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.
General Notice
Using a damaged battery or placing a battery in your mouth or animal's mouth may
cause serious injury including a fire or explosion.
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.
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.
Using the phone in proximity to receiving equipment (i.e., TV or radio) may cause
interference to the phone.
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.
