Magnetic media
Magnetic fields generated by mobile devices may damage data on magnetic
storage media, such as credit cards, computer discs or tapes. Do not place your
device next to such media.
You should never expose your device to strong magnetic fields as this may cause
temporary malfunction.
Other Safety Guidelines
Aircraft
Regulations prohibit using your mobile device while onboard an aircraft. Switch
off your device before boarding an aircraft or turn off the wireless connections.
Blasting areas
To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your device off when in a
‘blasting area’ or in areas posted: “Turn off two-way radio.” Obey all signs and
instructions.
Potentially explosive environments
Turn your device off when in any area with a potentially explosive environment
and obey all signs and instructions.
Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or
even death.
Areas with a potentially explosive environment are often, but not always, clearly
marked. They include fuelling areas such as gas stations, below decks on boats,
fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities, vehicles using liquified petroleum
gas (such as propane or butane), areas where the air contains chemicals or articles,
such as grain, dust, or metal powders, and any other area where you would
normally be advised to turn off your vehicle’s engine.
Choking
Keep your away from children as the SIM card and other small parts present a
choking hazard.
