• 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 Centre.
• Do not paint your phone.
• The data saved in your phone might be deleted due to careless use, repair of the phone, or upgrade of
the software. Please backup your important phone numbers. (Ring tones, text messages, voice messages,
pictures, and videos could also be deleted.) The manufacturer is not liable for damage due to the loss of data.
• When you use the phone in public places, set the ring tone to vibration so as not to disturb others.
• Do not turn your phone on or off when putting it near your ear.
• Your phone is an electronic device that generates heat during normal operation. Extremely prolonged, direct
skin contact in the absence of adequate ventilation may result in discomfort or minor burns. Therefore, use
care when handling your phone during or immediately after operation.
• Do not attempt to repair or modify the device yourself. Your device is equipped with an internal rechargeable
battery which should be replaced only by LG or an authorized LG repair centre. You should never attempt to
open or disassemble this device yourself and doing so may cause damage that will void your warranty.

1. Do wireless phones pose a health hazard?
The available scientific evidence does not show that any health problems are associated with using wireless
phones. There is no proof, however, that wireless phones are absolutely safe. Wireless phones emit low levels of
radio frequency energy (RF) in the microwave range while being used. They also emit very low levels of RF when
in the standby mode. Whereas high levels of RF can produce health effects (by heating tissue), exposure to low
level RF that does not produce heating effects causes no known adverse health effects. Many studies of low level
RF exposures have not found any biological effects. Some studies have suggested that some biological effects
may occur, but such findings have not been confirmed by additional research. In some cases, other researchers
have had difficulty in reproducing those studies, or in determining the reasons for inconsistent results.
2. What is the FDA’s role concerning the safety of wireless phones?
Under the law, the FDA does not review the safety of radiation emitting consumer products such as wireless
phones before they can be sold, as it does with new drugs or medical devices. However, the agency has
authority to take action if wireless phones are shown to emit radio frequency energy (RF) at a level that is
hazardous to the user. In such a case, the FDA could require the manufacturers of wireless phones to notify
users of the health hazard and to repair, replace, or recall the phones so that the hazard no longer exists.
