Safety precautions 114
Use your device to help others in emergencies. If you see an auto
•
accident, a crime in progress, or a serious emergency where lives are in
danger, call a local emergency number.
Call roadside assistance or a special, non-emergency 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 another special, non-emergency number.
Proper care and use of your mobile device
Keep your device dry
Humidity and all types of liquids may damage device parts or
•
electronic circuits.
When wet, remove the battery without turning on your device. Dry
•
your device with a towel and take it to a service centre.
Liquids will change the colour of the label that indicates water
•
damage inside the device. Water damage to your device can void your
manufacturer’s warranty.
Position your device within easy reach. Be able to access your wireless
•
device without removing your eyes from the road. If you receive an
incoming call at an inconvenient time, let your voice mail answer it
for you.
Let the person you are speaking with know you are driving. Suspend
•
calls in heavy traffic or hazardous weather conditions. Rain, sleet, snow,
ice, and heavy traffic can be hazardous.
Do not take notes or look up phone numbers. Jotting down a “to do”
•
list or flipping through your address book takes attention away from
your primary responsibility of driving safely.
Dial sensibly and assess the traffic. Place calls when you are not moving
•
or before pulling into traffic. Try to plan calls when your car will be
stationary. If you need to make a call, 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 have the potential to divert your
attention from the road.
Use your device to call for help. Dial a local emergency number in the
•
case of fire, traffic accident, or medical emergencies.
