G E T T I N G STA RT E D W I T H YO U R P H O N E GETTING STARTED WITH YOUR PHONE The Battery Note It is important to fully charge the battery before initial use of the phone. 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. Installing the Battery To install the battery, insert the battery into the opening on the back of the phone. Put the battery cover on the battery and push it slightly upwards. Removing the Battery Turn the power off. Pull the battery cover downward and remove it. Then remove the battery by pressing the upper area of it. Charging the Battery To use the charger provided with your phone: WARNING! Use only the charger provided with the phone. Using any charger other than the one included with the LG 490 may damage your phone or battery. 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. Battery Charge Level The battery charge level is shown at the top right of the LCD screen. When the battery charge level becomes low, the low battery sensor alerts you in three ways: sounding an audible tone, blinking the battery icon, and displaying Battery Low. If the battery charge level becomes exceedingly low, the phone automatically switches off and any function in progress is not saved. 16
