• UNDERSTAND IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Traffic Safety
Do not use a handheld telephone while driving a vehicle. Always secure
the phone in its holder; do not place the phone on the passenger seat or
where it can break loose in a collision or sudden stop.
Remember road safety always comes first!
Operating environment
Remember to follow any special regulations in force in any area and
always switch off your phone whenever it is forbidden to use it, or
when it may cause interference or danger.
Use the phone only in its normal operating positions.
Electronic devices
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from radio frequency
(RF) signals. However, certain electronic equipment may not be shielded
against the RF signals from your wireless phone.
Pacemakers
Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a minimum separation of 6 - 8
inches (15 - 20 cm) 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. Persons with pacemakers:
• Should always keep the phone more than 6 - 8 inches (15 - 20 cm)
from their pacemaker when the phone is switched on
• Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket
• Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential
for interference.
• If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place,
switch off your phone immediately.
