Important Safety Precautions  
Read these instructions. Breaking the rules may be dangerous or  
illegal. Further detailed information is given in this user guide.  
WARNING! Violation of the instructions may cause serious injury or  
death.  
1. Never use an unapproved battery since this could  
damage the phone and/or battery and could cause  
the battery to explode.  
2. Never place your phone in a microwave oven as it will  
cause the battery to explode.  
3. Never store your phone in temperatures less than  
-4°F or greater than 12F.  
4. Do not dispose of your battery by fire or with  
hazardous or flammable materials.  
5. When riding in a car, do not leave your phone or set  
up the hands-free kit near to the air bag. If wireless  
equipment is improperly installed and the air bag is  
deployed, you may be seriously injured.  
6. Do not use a hand-held phone while driving.  
7. Do not use the phone in areas where its use is  
prohibited. (For example: aircraft)

Important Safety Precautions  
1. Do not expose the battery charger or adapter to direct  
sunlight or use it in places with high humidity, such as  
a bathroom.  
2. Do not use harsh chemicals (such as alcohol, benzene,  
thinners, etc.) or detergents to clean your phone. This  
could cause a fire.  
3. Do not drop, strike, or shake your phone severely. It  
may harm the internal circuit boards of the phone.  
4. Do not use your phone in high explosive areas as the  
phone may generate sparks.  
5. 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 a fire or electric shock.  
6. 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.  
7. Do not handle the phone with wet hands while it is  
being charged. It may cause an electric shock or  
seriously damage your phone.  
8. Do not disassemble the phone.  
2
1. Do not place or answer calls while charging the phone as it may  
short-circuit the phone and/or cause electric shock or fire.  
2. Do not hold or let the antenna come in contact with your body  
during a call.  
3. 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.  
4. Store the battery out of reach of children.  
5. Be careful that children do not swallow any parts (such as  
rubber plugs, earphone, connection parts of the phone, etc.)  
This could cause asphyxiation or suffocation resulting in serious  
injury or death.  
6. Unplug the power cord and charger during lightning storms to  
avoid electric shock or fire.  
7. Only use the batteries and chargers provided by LG. The  
warranty will not be applied to products provided by other  
suppliers.  
8. Only authorized personnel should service the phone and its  
accessories. Faulty installation or service may result in accidents  
and consequently invalidate the warranty.  
9. 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.

Note  
your phone:  
It is important to fully charge the  
battery before initial use of the  
phone.  
Warning! Use only the charger  
provided with the phone. Using  
any charger other than the one  
included with the UX565 may  
damage your phone or battery.  
The phone comes with a  
rechargeable battery. Keep the  
battery charged while not in use  
in order to maximize talk and  
standby time. The battery charge  
level is shown at the top of the  
LCD screen.  
1. Plug the end of the adapter  
into the phone’s charger port  
and the other end into an  
electrical outlet.  
2. The charge time varies  
depending upon the battery  
level.  
Installing the Battery  
Insert the bottom of the battery  
into the opening on the back of  
the phone, then push the battery  
down until the latch clicks.

Signal Strength  
level becomes low, the low  
battery sensor alerts you in three  
ways: sounding an audible tone,  
blinking the battery icon, and  
displaying a warning message. If  
the battery charge level becomes  
exceedingly low, the phone  
automatically switches off and  
any function in progress is not  
saved.  
Call quality depends on the  
signal strength in your area. The  
signal strength is indicated on  
the screen as the number of bars  
next to the signal strength icon  
-- the more bars, the better  
the signal strength. If the signal  
quality is poor, move to an open  
area. If you are in a building, the  
reception may be better near a  
window.
