Driving Safely
Use of iPhone and headphones (even if used only in
one ear) while driving a vehicle or riding a bicycle is
not recommended and is illegal in some areas. Check
and obey the laws and regulations on the use of mobile
devices like iPhone in the areas where you drive. Be
careful and attentive while driving. If you decide to use
iPhone while driving or riding a bicycle, keep in mind the
following guidelines:
1
Â
Give full attention to driving and to the road.
Using a mobile device while driving may be distracting.
If you fi nd it disruptive or distracting while operating
any type of vehicle, riding a bicycle, or performing any
activity that requires your full attention, pull o∂ the road
and park before making or answering a call if driving
conditions require.
Â
Get to know iPhone and its features such as favorites,
recents, and speakerphone.
These features help you to place your call without
taking your attention o∂ the road. See the iPhone User’s
Guide for more information.
Â
Use a hands-free device.
Add an extra layer of convenience and safety to your
iPhone with one of the many hands-free accessories
available.
Â
Position iPhone within easy reach.
Keep your eyes on the road. If you get an incoming call
at an inconvenient time, let your voicemail answer it
for you.

Tips.
Â
Assess the tra∑ c before dialing, or place calls when
you are not moving or before pulling into tra∑ c.
Try to plan calls when your car will be stationary. Never
dial or enter other text while you are driving.
Â
Let the person you are speaking with know you are
driving.
If necessary, suspend the call in heavy tra∑ c or
hazardous weather conditions. Driving in rain, sleet,
snow, ice, fog, and even heavy tra∑ c can be hazardous.
Â
Do not take notes, look up phone numbers, or
perform any other activities that require your
attention while driving.
Jotting down a to-do list or fl ipping through your
address book takes attention away from your primary
responsibility, driving safely.
Â
Do not engage in stressful or emotional conversations
that may be distracting.
Make people you are talking with aware you are driving
and suspend conversations that have the potential to
divert your attention from the road.
Avoiding Eyestrain
When watching video or reading text on iPhone, avoid
prolonged use and take breaks to prevent eyestrain.
Glass Parts
The outside cover of the iPhone screen is made of glass.
This glass could break if iPhone is dropped on a hard
surface or receives a substantial impact. If the glass chips
or cracks, do not touch or attempt to remove the broken
glass. Stop using iPhone until the glass is replaced by an
Apple Authorized Service Provider. Glass cracked due to
misuse or abuse is not covered under the warranty.
