Motorola DROID BIONIC XT875 - Manual (Page 61)

• Get to know your Motorola mobile device and its features such as speed dial,
redial and voice dial. If available, these features help you to place your call without
taking your attention off the road.
• When available, use a handsfree device. If possible, add an additional layer of
convenience to your mobile device with one of the many Motorola Original handsfree
accessories available today.
• Position your mobile device within easy reach. Be able to access your mobile
device without removing your eyes from the road. If you receive an incoming call at an
inconvenient time, if possible, let your voicemail answer it for you.
• Let the person you are speaking with know you are driving; if necessary,
suspend the call in heavy traffic or hazardous weather conditions. Rain, sleet,
snow, ice, and even heavy traffic can be hazardous.
• Do not take notes or look up phone numbers while driving. Jotting down a “to do”
list or going through your address book takes attention away from your primary
responsibility—driving safely.
• Dial sensibly and assess the traffic; if possible, place calls when your car is not
moving or before pulling into traffic. If you must make a call while moving, dial only a
few numbers, check the road and your mirrors, then continue.
• 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
can divert your attention away from the road.
• Use your mobile device to call for help. Dial 911 or other local emergency number in
the case of fire, traffic accident, or medical emergencies (wherever wireless phone
service is available).
• Use your mobile device to help others in emergencies. If you see an auto accident,
crime in progress, or other serious emergency where lives are in danger, call 911 or other
local emergency number (wherever wireless phone service is available), as you would
want others to do for you.
• Call roadside assistance or a special non-emergency wireless assistance
number when necessary. If you see a broken-down vehicle posing no serious hazard, a
broken traffic signal, a minor traffic accident where no one appears injured, or a vehicle
you know to be stolen, call roadside assistance or other special non-emergency wireless
number (wherever wireless phone service is available).
Privacy & Data Security
Privacy & Data Security Motorola understands that privacy and data security are important to everyone. Because
some features of your mobile device may affect your privacy or data security, please follow
these recommendations to enhance protection of your information:
• Monitor access—Keep your mobile device with you and do not leave it where others
may have unmonitored access. Use your device’s security and lock features, where
available.
• Keep software up to date—If Motorola or a software/application vendor releases a
patch or software fix for your mobile device that updates the device’s security, install it as
soon as possible.
• Secure Personal Information—Your mobile device can store personal information in
various locations including your SIM card, memory card, and phone memory. Be sure to
remove or clear all personal information before you recycle, return, or give away your
device. You can also backup your personal data to transfer to a new device.
Note: For information on how to backup or wipe data from your mobile device, go to
www.motorola.com/support
• Online accounts—Some mobile devices provide a Motorola online account (such as
MOTOBLUR). Go to your account for information on how to manage the account, and how
to use security features such as remote wipe and device location (where available).
• Applications and updates—Choose your apps and updates carefully, and install from
trusted sources only. Some apps can impact your phone’s performance and/or have
access to private information including account details, call data, location details and
network resources.
• Wireless—For mobile devices with Wi-Fi features, only connect to trusted Wi-Fi
networks. Also, when using your device as a hotspot (where available) use network
security. These precautions will help prevent unauthorized access to your device.
• Location-based information—Location-based information includes information that
can be used to determine the approximate location of a mobile device. Mobile phones
which are connected to a wireless network transmit location-based information. Devices
enabled with GPS or AGPS technology also transmit location-based information.
Additionally, if you use applications that require location-based information (e.g. driving
directions), such applications transmit location-based information. This location-based
information may be shared with third parties, including your wireless service provider,
applications providers, Motorola, and other third parties providing services.
