aircraft
s navigation system and its communications network, using
this device
s phone function on board an airplane is against the law
in most countries. If you want to use this device when its use is
restricted on board an aircraft, remember to switch to Airplane
Mode which turns off RF functions that could cause interference.
ENVIRONMENT RESTRICTIONS
Do not use this product in gas stations, fuel depots, chemical plants
or where blasting operations are in progress, or in potentially
explosive atmospheres such as fueling areas, fuel storehouses,
below deck on boats, chemical plants, fuel or chemical transfer or
storage facilities, and areas where the air contains chemicals or
particles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders. Please be aware
that sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting
in bodily injury or even death.
EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERES
When in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere or where
flammable materials exist, the product should be turned off and the

deck on boats, fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities, and
areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain,
dust, or metal powders.
ROAD SAFETY
Vehicle drivers in motion are not permitted to use communication
services with handheld devices, except in the case of emergency.
In some countries, using hands-free devices as an alternative is
allowed.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR RF EXPOSURE
Avoid using your phone near metal structures (for example, the
steel frame of a building).
Avoid using your phone near strong electromagnetic sources,
such as microwave ovens, sound speakers, TV and radio.
Use only original manufacturer-approved accessories, or
accessories that do not contain any metal.
Use of non-original manufacturer-approved accessories may
violate your local RF exposure guidelines and should be avoided.

Important Health Information and Safety Precautions
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.
NON-IONIZING RADIATION
Your device has an internal antenna. This product should be
operated in its normal-use position to ensure the radiative
performance and safety from interference. As with other mobile
radio transmitting equipment, users are advised that for satisfactory
operation of the equipment and for personal safety, it is
recommended that no part of the human body be allowed to come
too close to the antenna during operation of the equipment.
Use only the supplied integral antenna. Use of unauthorized or
modified antennas may impair call quality and damage the phone,
causing loss of performance and SAR levels exceeding the
recommended limits as well as result in non-compliance with local
regulatory requirements in your country.
To assure optimal phone performance and ensure human exposure
to RF energy is within the guidelines set forth in the relevant
standards, always use your device only in its normal-use position.
Contact with the antenna area may impair call quality and cause
your device to operate at a higher power level than needed.
Avoiding contact with the antenna area when the phone is IN USE
optimizes the antenna performance and the battery life.

Important Information
This user

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 LG ALLY
TM
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 1xRTT system receives twice as many subscribers in the
wireless section as IS-95. Benefits from using 1xRTT instead of IS-
95 include extending your device's battery life (up to twice as long)
and high speed data transmission capability. However, in applicable
areas, EV-DO system is optimized for data service and therefore is
much faster than 1xRTT.
The table on the following page 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 those international standards.

Bodily Contact During Operation
This device was tested for typical use with the back of the phone
kept 0.79 inches (2.0 cm) from the body. To comply with FCC RF
exposure requirements, a minimum separation distance of 0.79
inches (2.0 cm) must be maintained between the user
s body and
the back of the phone, including the antenna. Third-party belt-clips,
holsters, and similar accessories containing metallic components
should not be used. Avoid the use of accessories that cannot
maintain 0.79 inches (2.0 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.)
To satisfy FCC RF exposure requirements, keep 8 inches (20 cm)
between the user / bystander and vehicle-mounted external
antenna. For more information about RF exposure, visit the FCC
website at www.fcc.gov.
FCC Notice and Cautions
This device and its accessories comply with part 15 of FCC rules.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device
and its accessories may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this
device and its accessories must accept any interference received,
including interference that causes undesired operation.
Any changes or modifications not expressly approved in this user
guide could void your warranty for this equipment. Use only the
supplied antenna. Use of unauthorized antennas (or modifications to
the antenna) could impair call quality, damage the phone, void your
warranty and/or violate FCC regulations.
Don
t use the phone with a damaged antenna. A damaged antenna
could cause a minor skin burn. Contact your local dealer for a
replacement antenna.

Part 15.21 statement
Changes or modifications that are not expressly approved by the
manufacturer could void the user
s authority to operate the
equipment.
Part 15.19 statement
This device and its accessories comply with part 15 of FCC rules.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) This device and its accessories may not cause harmful
interference.
(2) This device and its accessories must accept any interference
received, including interference that may cause undesired
operation.
Part 15.105 statement
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the
limits for a class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC
rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection
against harmful interference in a residential installation. This
equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy
and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions,
may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However,
there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular
installation. If you experience interference with reception (e.g.,
television), determine if this equipment is causing the harmful
interference by turning the equipment off and then back on to see if
the interference is affected. If necessary, try correcting the
interference by one or more of the following measures:
- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
- Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
- Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from
that to which the receiver is connected.
- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
