Important Safety Information
Turning Off Your Phone in Dangerous Areas
To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your phone
off when in a blasting area or in other areas with signs
indicating two-way radios should be turned off. Construction
crews often use remote-control RF devices to set off explosives.
Turn your phone off when you’re in any area that has a
potentially explosive atmosphere. Although it’s rare, your phone
and accessories could generate sparks. Sparks can cause an
explosion or fire, resulting in bodily injury or even death. These
areas are often, but not always, clearly marked. They include:
Ⅲ Fueling areas such as gas stations.
Ⅲ Below deck on boats.
Ⅲ Fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities.
Ⅲ Areas where the air contains chemicals or particles such
as grain, dust, or metal powders.
Ⅲ Any other area where you would normally be advised to
turn off your vehicle’s engine.

never had a previous seizure or blackout.
If you have experienced seizures or blackouts, or if you have a
family history of such occurrences, please consult with your
physician before playing video games or enabling a flashing-
lights feature (if available) on your phone.
