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)

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.

●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.

Important Information

This user’s guide provides important

information on the use and

operation of your phone. Please

read this guide carefully prior to

using the phone to be able to use

your phone to its greatest

advantage and to prevent any

accidental damage or misuse. Any

unapproved changes or

modifications will void your

warranty.

Technical Details

The VENUS™ is an all digital phone

that operates on both Code Division

Multiple Access (CDMA)

frequencies: Cellular services at 800

MHz and Personal Communication

Services (PCS) at 1.9 GHz.

CDMA technology uses a feature

called DSSS (Direct Sequence

Spread Spectrum) that enables the

phone to keep communication from

being crossed and to use one

frequency channel by multiple

users in the same specific area.

This results in a 10-fold capacity

increase when compared with

analog mode. In addition, features

such as soft / softer handoff, hard

handoff, and dynamic RF power

control technologies combine to

reduce call interruptions.

The Cellular and PCS CDMA

networks consist of MSO (Mobile

Switching Office), BSC (Base

Station Controller), BTS (Base

Station Transmission System), and

MS (Mobile Station).

* TSB -74: Protocol between an IS-

95A system and ANSI J-STD-008

1xRTT system receives twice as

many subscribers in the wireless

section as IS-95. Its battery life is

twice as long as IS-95. High-speed

data transmission is also possible.

EV-DO system is optimized for data

service and is much faster than

1xRTT system in applicable area.

The following table lists some major

CDMA standards.

FCC RF Exposure Information

WARNING! Read this information

before operating the phone.

In August 1996, the Federal

Communications Commission (FCC)

of the United States, with its action

in Report and Order FCC 96-326,

adopted an updated safety standard

for human exposure to Radio

Frequency (RF) electromagnetic

energy emitted by FCC regulated

transmitters. Those guidelines are

consistent with the safety standard

previously set by both U.S. and

international standards bodies. The

design of this phone complies with

the FCC guidelines and these

international standards.

Bodily Contact During Operation

This device was tested for typical

Safety

TTIIAA SSaaffeettyy

IInnffoorrmmaattiioonn

The following is the complete TIA

Safety Information for wireless

handheld phones.

Exposure to Radio Frequency

Signal

Your wireless handheld portable

phone is a low power radio

transmitter and receiver. When ON,

it receives and sends out Radio

Frequency (RF) signals.

In August, 1996, the Federal

Communications Commissions

(FCC) adopted RF exposure

guidelines with safety levels for

handheld wireless phones. Those

guidelines are consistent with the

safety standards previously set by

both U.S. and international

standards bodies:

ANSI C95.1 (1992) *

NCRP Report 86 (1986)

ICNIRP (1996)

* American National Standards

Institute; National Council on

Radiation Protection and

Measurements; International

Commission on Non-Ionizing

Radiation Protection

Those standards were based on

comprehensive and periodic

evaluations of the relevant

scientific literature. For example,

over 120 scientists, engineers, and

physicians from universities,

government health agencies, and

industry reviewed the available

body of research to develop the

ANSI Standard (C95.1).

The design of your phone

complies with the FCC

guidelines (and those

standards).

Antenna Care

Use only the supplied or an

approved replacement antenna.

Unauthorized antennas,

modifications, or attachments could

damage the phone and may violate

FCC regulations.

Phone Operation

NORMAL POSITION: Hold the

phone as you would any other

telephone with the antenna pointed

up and over your shoulder.

Tips on Efficient Operation

For your phone to operate most

efficiently:

Don’t touch the antenna

unnecessarily when the phone is in

use. Contact with the antenna

affects call quality and may cause

the phone to operate at a higher

power level than otherwise needed.

Driving

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:

●Give full attention to driving --

driving safely is your first

responsibility;

●Use hands-free operation, if

available;

●Pull off the road and park before

making or answering a call if

driving conditions or the law

require it.

Electronic Devices

Most modern electronic equipment

is shielded from RF signals.

However, certain electronic

equipment may not be shielded

against the RF signals from your

wireless phone.

Pacemakers

The Health Industry Manufacturers

Association recommends that a

minimum separation of six (6)

inches be maintained between a

handheld wireless phone and a

pacemaker to avoid potential

interference with the pacemaker.

These recommendations are

consistent with the independent

research by and recommendations

of Wireless Technology Research.

Persons with pacemakers:

●Should ALWAYS keep the phone

more than six (6) inches from

their pacemaker when the phone

is turned ON;

●Should not carry the phone in a

breast pocket;

●Should use the ear opposite the

pacemaker to

minimize the potential for

interference;

●Should turn the phone OFF

immediately if there is any

reason to suspect that

interference is taking place.

Safety

Hearing Aids

Some digital wireless phones may

interfere with some hearing aids. In

the event of such interference, you

may want to consult your service

provider (or call the customer

service line to discuss alternatives).

Other Medical Devices and Health

Care Facilities

If you use any other personal

medical device, consult the

manufacturer of your device to

determine if it is adequately

shielded from external RF energy.

Your physician may be able to

assist you in obtaining this

information.

Turn your phone OFF in health care

facilities when any regulations

posted in these areas instruct you

to do so. Hospitals or health care

facilities may use equipment that

could be sensitive to external RF

energy.

Vehicles

RF signals may affect improperly

installed or inadequately shielded

electronic systems in motor

vehicles. Check with the

manufacturer or its representative

regarding your vehicle. You should

also consult the manufacturer of

any equipment that has been added

to your vehicle.

Aircraft

FCC regulations prohibit using your

phone while in the air. Switch OFF

your phone before boarding an

aircraft.

Blasting Areas

To avoid interfering with blasting

operations, turn your phone OFF

when in a “blasting area” or in

areas posted: “Turn off two-way

radio”. Obey all signs and

instructions.

Potentially Explosive Atmosphere

Turn your phone OFF when in any

area with a potentially explosive

atmosphere and obey all signs and

instructions. Sparks in such areas

could cause an explosion or fire

resulting in bodily injury or even

death.

Areas with a potentially explosive

atmosphere are often, but not

always marked clearly. Potential

areas may include: fueling areas

(such as gasoline stations); below

deck on boats; fuel or chemical

transfer or storage facilities;

vehicles using liquefied petroleum

gas (such as propane or butane);

areas where the air contains

chemicals or particles (such as

grain, dust, or metal powders); and

any other area where you would

normally be advised to turn off your

vehicle engine.

For Vehicles Equipped with an Air

Bag

An air bag inflates with great force.

DO NOT place objects, including

either installed or portable wireless

equipment, in the area over the air

bag or in the air bag deployment

area. If in-vehicle wireless

equipment is improperly installed

and the air bag inflates, serious

injury could result.

SSaaffeettyy IInnffoorrmmaattiioonn

●Battery life will vary due to

usage patterns and

environmental conditions.

●Use of extended backlighting,

Browser, and data connectivity

kits affect battery life and talk/

standby times.

●The self-protection function of

the battery cuts the power of the

phone when its operation is in an

abnormal state. In this case,

remove the battery from the

phone, reinstall it, and turn the

phone on.

Explosion, Shock, and Fire Hazards

●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. 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 may short-circuit the +

CCaauuttiioonn::

AAvvooiidd ppootteennttiiaall

Prolonged exposure to loud sounds

(including music) is the most

common cause of preventable

hearing loss. Some scientific

research suggests that using

portable audio devices, such as

portable music players and cellular

telephones, at high volume settings

for long durations may lead to

permanent noise induced hearing

loss. This includes the use of

headphones (including headsets,

earbuds and Bluetooth®or other

wireless devices). Exposure to very

loud sound has also been

associated in some studies with

tinnitus (a ringing in the ear),

hypersensitivity to sound and

distorted hearing. Individual

susceptibility to noise-induced

hearing loss and other potential

hearing problems varies.

The amount of sound produced by

a portable audio device varies

depending on the nature of the

sound, the device, the device

settings and the headphones. You

should follow some commonsense

recommendations when using any

portable audio device:

●Set the volume in a quiet

environment and select the

lowest volume at which you can

hear adequately.

●When using headphones, turn

the volume down if you cannot

hear the people speaking near

you or if the person sitting next

to you can hear what you are

listening to.

●Do not turn the volume up to

block out noisy surroundings. If

you choose to listen to your

portable device in a noisy

environment, use noise-

cancelling headphones to block

out background environmental

noise.

●Limit the amount of time you

listen. As the volume increases,

less time is required before your

hearing could be affected.

●Avoid using headphones after

exposure to extremely loud

noises, such as rock concerts,

that might cause temporary

hearing loss. Temporary hearing

loss might cause unsafe volumes

to sound normal.

●Do not listen at any volume that

causes you discomfort. If you

experience ringing in your ears,

hear muffled speech or

experience any temporary

hearing difficulty after listening

to your portable audio device,

discontinue use and consult your

doctor.

UUppddaattee

The U.S. Food and Drug

Administration’s Center

for Devices and

Radiological Health Consumer

Update on Mobile Phones:

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

(RF) energy in the microwave range

while being used. They also emit

very low levels of RF when in

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

101

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 (RF) energy

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.

Although the existing scientific data

does not justify FDA regulatory

actions, the FDA has urged the

wireless phone industry to take a

number of steps, including the

following:

●Support needed research into

possible biological effects of RF

of the type emitted by wireless

phones;

●Design wireless phones in a way

that minimizes any RF exposure

to the user that is not necessary

for device function; and

●Cooperate in providing users of

wireless phones with the best

possible information on possible

effects of wireless phone use on

human health.

The FDA belongs to an interagency

working group of the federal

agencies that have responsibility

for different aspects of RF safety to

ensure coordinated efforts at the

federal level. The following

agencies belong to this working

group:

●National Institute for

Occupational Safety and Health

●Environmental Protection

Agency

●Occupational Safety and Health

Administration

●National Telecommunications

and Information Administration

The National Institutes of Health

participates in some interagency

working group activities, as well.

The FDA shares regulatory

responsibilities for wireless phones

with the Federal Communications

Commission (FCC). All phones that

102

Safety

are sold in the United States must

comply with FCC safety guidelines

that limit RF exposure. The FCC

relies on the FDA and other health

agencies for safety questions about

wireless phones.

The FCC also regulates the base

stations that the wireless phone

networks rely upon. While these

base stations operate at higher

power than do the wireless phones

themselves, the RF exposures that

people get from these base stations

are typically thousands of times

lower than those they can get from

wireless phones. Base stations are

thus not the subject of the safety

questions discussed in this

document.

3. What kinds of phones are the

subject of this update?

The term “wireless phone” refers

here to handheld wireless phones

with built-in antennas, often called

“cell”, “mobile”, or “PCS” phones.

These types of wireless phones can

expose the user to measurable

Radio Frequency (RF) energy

because of the short distance

between the phone and the user’s

head.

These RF exposures are limited by

FCC safety guidelines that were

developed with the advice of the

FDA and other federal health and

safety agencies. When the phone is

located at greater distances from

the user, the exposure to RF is

drastically lower because a

person's RF exposure decreases

rapidly with increasing distance

from the source. The so-called

“cordless phones,” which have a

base unit connected to the

telephone wiring in a house,

typically operate at far lower power

levels, and thus produce RF

exposures far below the FCC safety

limits.

4. What are the results of the

research done already?

The research done thus far has

produced conflicting results, and

many studies have suffered from

flaws in their research methods.

Animal experiments investigating

the effects of Radio Frequency (RF)

energy exposures characteristic of

wireless phones have yielded

conflicting results that often cannot

be repeated in other laboratories. A

few animal studies, however, have

suggested that low levels of RF

could accelerate the development

of cancer in laboratory animals.

However, many of the studies that

103

showed increased tumor

development used animals that had

been genetically engineered or

treated with cancer-causing

chemicals so as to be pre-disposed

to develop cancer in the absence of

RF exposure. Other studies exposed

the animals to RF for up to 22 hours

per day. These conditions are not

similar to the conditions under

which people use wireless phones,

so we do not know with certainty

what the results of such studies

mean for human health. Three large

epidemiology studies have been

published since December 2000.

Between them, the studies

investigated any possible

association between the use of

wireless phones and primary brain

cancer, glioma, meningioma, or

acoustic neuroma, tumors of the

brain or salivary gland, leukemia, or

other cancers. None of the studies

demonstrated the existence of any

harmful health effects from

wireless phone RF exposures.

However, none of the studies can

answer questions about long-term

exposures, since the average

period of phone use in these

studies was around three years.

5. What research is needed to

decide whether RF exposure from

wireless phones poses a health

risk?

A combination of laboratory studies

and epidemiological studies of

people actually using wireless

phones would provide some of the

data that are needed. Lifetime

animal exposure studies could be

completed in a few years. However,

very large numbers of animals

would be needed to provide reliable

proof of a cancer promoting effect,

if one exists. Epidemiological

studies can provide data that is

directly applicable to human

populations, but ten or more years

follow-up may be needed to provide

answers about some health effects,

such as cancer. This is because the

interval between the time of

exposure to a cancer-causing

agent and the time tumors develop

— if they do — may be many, many

years. The interpretation of

epidemiological studies is

hampered by difficulties in

measuring actual RF exposure

during day-to-day use of wireless

phones. Many factors affect this

measurement, such as the angle at

which the phone is held, or which

model of phone is used.

104

Safety

6. What is the FDA doing to find out

more about the possible health

effects of wireless phone RF?

The FDA is working with the U.S.

National Toxicology Program and

with groups of investigators around

the world to ensure that high

priority animal studies are

conducted to address important

questions about the effects of

exposure to Radio Frequency (RF)

energy.

The FDA has been a leading

participant in the World Health

Organization International Electro

Magnetic Fields (EMF) Project

since its inception in 1996. An

influential result of this work has

been the development of a detailed

agenda of research needs that has

driven the establishment of new

research programs around the

world. The project has also helped

develop a series of public

information documents on EMF

issues.

The FDA and the Cellular

Telecommunications & Internet

Association (CTIA) have a formal

Cooperative Research And

Development Agreement (CRADA)

to do research on wireless phone

safety. The FDA provides the

scientific oversight, obtaining input

from experts in government,

industry, and academic

organizations. CTIA-funded

research is conducted through

contracts with independent

investigators. The initial research

will include both laboratory studies

and studies of wireless phone

users. The CRADA will also include

a broad assessment of additional

research needs in the context of

the latest research developments

around the world.

7. How can I find out how much

Radio Frequency energy exposure I

can get by using my wireless

phone?

All phones sold in the United States

must comply with Federal

Communications Commission (FCC)

guidelines that limit Radio

Frequency (RF) energy exposures.

The FCC established these

guidelines in consultation with the

FDA and the other federal health

and safety agencies. The FCC limit

for RF exposure from wireless

phones is set at a Specific

Absorption Rate (SAR) of 1.6 watts

per kilogram (1.6 W/kg). The FCC

limit is consistent with the safety

standards developed by the

Institute of Electrical and Electronic

105

Engineering (IEEE) and the National

Council on Radiation Protection and

Measurement. The exposure limit

takes into consideration the body’s

ability to remove heat from the

tissues that absorb energy from the

wireless phone and is set well

below levels known to have effects.

Manufacturers of wireless phones

must report the RF exposure level

for each model of phone to the FCC.

The FCC website

(http://www.fcc.gov/oet/rfsafety)

gives directions for locating the FCC

identification number on your

phone so you can find your phone’s

RF exposure level in the online

listing.

8. What has the FDA done to

measure the Radio Frequency

energy coming from wireless

phones?

The Institute of Electrical and

Electronic Engineers (IEEE) is

developing a technical standard for

measuring the Radio Frequency

(RF) energy exposure from wireless

phones and other wireless

handsets with the participation and

leadership of FDA scientists and

engineers. The standard,

“Recommended Practice for

Determining the Spatial-Peak

Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) in

the Human Body Due to Wireless

Communications Devices:

Experimental Techniques”, sets

forth the first consistent test

methodology for measuring the rate

at which RF is deposited in the

heads of wireless phone users. The

test method uses a tissue-

simulating model of the human

head. Standardized SAR test

methodology is expected to greatly

improve the consistency of

measurements made at different

laboratories on the same phone.

SAR is the measurement of the

amount of energy absorbed in

tissue, either by the whole body or

a small part of the body. It is

measured in watts/kg (or

milliwatts/g) of matter. This

measurement is used to determine

whether a wireless phone complies

with safety guidelines.

9. What steps can I take to reduce

my exposure to Radio Frequency

energy from my wireless phone?

If there is a risk from these

products — and at this point we do

not know that there is — it is

probably very small. But if you are

concerned about avoiding even

potential risks, you can take a few

Safety

simple steps to minimize your

exposure to Radio Frequency (RF)

energy. Since time is a key factor in

how much exposure a person

receives, reducing the amount of

time spent using a wireless phone

will reduce RF exposure. If you

must conduct extended

conversations by wireless phone

every day, you could place more

distance between your body and

the source of the RF, since the

exposure level drops off

dramatically with distance. For

example, you could use a headset

and carry the wireless phone away

from your body or use a wireless

phone connected to a remote

antenna. Again, the scientific data

does not demonstrate that wireless

phones are harmful. But if you are

concerned about the RF exposure

from these products, you can use

measures like those described

above to reduce your RF exposure

from wireless phone use.

10. What about children using

wireless phones?

The scientific evidence does not

show a danger to users of wireless

phones, including children and

teenagers. If you want to take steps

to lower exposure to Radio

Frequency (RF) energy, the

measures described above would

apply to children and teenagers

using wireless phones. Reducing

the time of wireless phone use and

increasing the distance between

the user and the RF source will

reduce RF exposure.

Some groups sponsored by other

national governments have advised

that children be discouraged from

using wireless phones at all. For

example, the government in the

United Kingdom distributed leaflets

containing such a recommendation

in December 2000. They noted that

no evidence exists that using a

wireless phone causes brain

tumors or other ill effects. Their

recommendation to limit wireless

phone use by children was strictly

precautionary; it was not based on

scientific evidence that any health

hazard exists.

11. What about wireless phone

interference with medical

equipment?

Radio Frequency (RF) energy from

wireless phones can interact with

some electronic devices. For this

reason, the FDA helped develop a

detailed test method to measure

Electro Magnetic Interference

107

(EMI) of implanted cardiac

pacemakers and defibrillators from

wireless telephones. This test

method is now part of a standard
