Flight mode
GSM, Bluetooth™ connection or FM radio signals
from a mobile phone may be harmful to the safe
operation of an aircraft.
Flight mode is a special mode in which the phone
does not transmit signals, but allows the user to
browse, read and write information resident in the
PDA part of the device. If a hotspot is available the
user can also browse the Internet/Intranet, send
and receive emails.
