• IMPORTANT SAFETY
INFORMATION
This section provides additional safety
information. A brief overview of safety
can be found in the section.
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 at least 6
inches (approximately 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 inches (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.
• Switch off the phone immediately if
you have any reason to suspect that
interference is taking place.
HEARING AIDS
Some digital wireless phones may
interfere with some hearing aids. In the
event of such interference, you may want
to consult your service provider.
Other medical devices
Operation of any radio transmitting
equipment, including cellular phones,
may interfere with the functionality of
inadequately protected medical devices.
Consult a physician or the manufacturer
of the medical device to determine if they
are adequately shielded from external RF
energy or if you have any questions.
Switch off your phone in health care
facilities when any regulations posted in
these areas instruct you to do so.
Hospitals or health care facilities may be
using equipment that could be sensitive
to external RF energy.
