SAFETY INFORMATION FOR WIRELESS HANDHELD PHONES
Read This Information Before Using Your Handheld Portable Cellular Telephone
DRIVING SAFETY
Talking on the phone while driving is extremely dangerous and is illegal in some states. Remember, safety
comes first. Check the laws and regulations on the use of phones in the areas where you drive. Always obey
them. If you must use your phone while driving, please:
•
Give full attention to driving. Driving safely is your first responsibility.
•
Use hands-free operation and/or one-touch, speed dialing, and auto answer modes.
•
Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call.
An air bag inflates with great force. DO NOT place objects, including either installed or portable wireless
equipment, in the area over the air bag or in the air bag deployment area. If in-vehicle wireless equipment is
improperly installed and the air bag inflates, serious injury could result.
WARNING!:
Failure to follow these instructions could lead to serious personal injury and possible property
damage.
ELECTRONIC DEVICES
Your wireless handheld portable telephone is a low power radio transmitter and receiver. When it is ON, it
receives and also sends out radio frequency (RF) signals.
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF energy. However, certain electronic equipment may not
be shielded against the RF signals from your wireless phone. Therefore, use of your phone must be restricted in
certain situations.
PACEMAKERS
The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that a minimum separation of six (6”) inches be
maintained between a handheld wireless phone and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the
pacemaker. These recommendations are consistent with the independent research by and recommendations of
Wireless Technology Research.
