Important Safety Precautions

Read these instructions. 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 the 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 lower than

-4°F or higher 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,

thinner, etc.) or detergent 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 highly 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.

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

circumstance, 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.

The enV 3 is an all digital phone

that operates on both Code

frequencies: cellular services at

800 MHz and Personal

Communication Services (PCS) at

1.9 GHz.

The table on the following page

lists some major CDMA standards.

FCC RF Exposure Information

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
