Safety

Do not engage in stressful or emotional conversations that may divert

your attention from the road.

Dial 911 to report serious emergencies. It’s free from your wireless

phone.

Use your phone to help others in emergencies.

Call roadside assistance or a special non-emergency wireless number

when necessary.

Following Safety Guidelines

To operate your phone safely and efficiently, always follow
any special regulations in a given area. Turn your phone off in areas where use
is forbidden or when it may cause interference or danger.

Using Your Phone Near Other Electronic Devices

Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from radio frequency (RF)
signals. However, RF signals from wireless phones may affect inadequately
shielded electronic equipment.
RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic
operating systems and/or entertainment systems in motor vehicles. Check
with the manufacturer or their representative to determine if these systems
are adequately shielded from external RF signals. Also check with the
manufacturer regarding any equipment that has been added to your vehicle.
Consult the manufacturer of any personal medical devices, such as
pacemakers and hearing aids, to determine if they are adequately shielded
from external RF signals.

Note:

Always turn off the phone in health care facilities and request permission

before using the phone near medical equipment.

Turning Off Your Phone Before Flying

Turn off your phone before boarding any aircraft. To prevent possible
interference with aircraft systems, the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration
(FAA) regulations require you to have permission from a crew member to use
your phone while the plane is on the ground. To prevent any risk of
interference,
FCC regulations prohibit using your phone while the plane is in the air.
