Important Safety Precautions

Read these simple guidelines. 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 122°F.

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, hospital)

LG 8500_Eng_Telus.qxd 10/9/06 8:31 PM Page 1

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.

LG 8500_Eng_Telus.qxd 10/9/06 8:31 PM Page 2

Important Safety Precautions

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. 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. An emergency call can be made only within a service area. For an emergency call, make sure

that you are within a service area and that the phone is turned on.

Technical Details

The LG 8500 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). The following

table lists some major CDMA standards.

* 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.

Designator Description

LG 8500_Eng_Telus.qxd 10/9/06 8:31 PM Page 8

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 U.S, Canada 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 use with the back of

the phone kept 0.6 inches (1.5 cm) from the body. To

comply with FCC RF exposure requirements, a minimum

separation distance of 0.6 inches (1.5 cm) must be

maintained between the user’s body and the back of the

phone, including the antenna, whether extended or

retracted. Third-party belt-clips, holsters and similar

accessories containing metallic components should not

be used. Avoid the use of accessories that cannot

maintain 0.6 inches (1.5 cm) distance between the user’s

body and the back of the phone and have not been

tested for compliance with FCC RF exposure limits.

Vehicle-Mounted External Antenna

(Optional, if available.)

A minimum separation distance of 8 inches (20 cm) must

be maintained between the user / bystander and the

vehicle-mounted external antenna to satisfy FCC RF

exposure requirements. For more information about RF

exposure, visit the FCC website at www.fcc.gov.

Caution

Use only the supplied and approved antenna. Use of

unauthorized antennas or modifications could impair call

quality, damage the phone, void your warranty and/or

result in violation of FCC regulations.

Do not use the phone with a damaged antenna. If a

damaged antenna comes into contact with the skin a

minor burn may result. Contact your local dealer for a

replacement antenna.
