: The default Lock screen simply locks the screen to prevent unintentional actions. For
more security to guard against unauthorized use, you can set an unlock requirement

Battery Capacity
Your phone is equipped with a Lithium Ion (Li-Ion) battery. It allows you to recharge your battery
before it is fully drained. The battery provides up to 14 hours of continuous digital talk time.
When the battery reaches 5% of its capacity, the battery icon blinks. When there are
approximately two minutes of talk time left, the phone can sound an audible alert and then turn
off.
Note
: Long backlight settings, searching for service, using vibrate mode, browser use, and
other variables m
ay reduce the battery‟s talk and standby times.
Tip
:
Watch your phone's battery level indicator and charge the battery before it runs out of
power.
Charge the Battery
Keeping track of your battery's charge is important. If your battery level becomes too low, your
phone automatically turns off and you will lose any information you were just working on.
1. Connect the charging adapter and USB cable as shown; the LG logo on the charging
adapter should face toward you.
