Section 2: Understanding Your PCS Phone

To turn your phone on, press 

 for approximately 

two seconds.

Once your phone is ON, it displays “Searching for Service” 
which indicates that your phone is searching for a signal. When 
your phone finds a signal, it automatically enters standby mode – 
the phone’s idle state. At this point, you are ready to begin 
making and receiving calls.

If your phone is unable to find a signal after 15 minutes of 
searching, a Power Save feature is automatically activated. 
When a signal is found, your phone automatically returns to 
standby mode.

In Power Save mode, your phone searches for a signal 
periodically without your intervention. You can also initiate a 
search for PCS Service by pressing any key (when your phone is 
turned ON).

Tip: The Power Save feature helps to conserve your battery power when 
you are in an area where there is no signal.

Press and hold 

 until you see the powering down 

message and animation (for example, “LG Goodbye!”) on the 
display screen.

Your screen remains blank while your phone is off (unless the 
battery is charging).
