Vehicles
RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic systems in motor
vehicles such as electronic fuel injection systems, electronic anti-skid (anti-lock) braking
systems, electronic speed control systems, and air bag systems. For more information, check
with the manufacturer, or its representative, of your vehicle or any equipment that has been
added. Only qualified personnel should service the device, or install the device in a vehicle.
Faulty installation or service may be dangerous and may invalidate any warranty that may
apply to the device. Check regularly that all wireless equipment in your vehicle is mounted and
operating properly. Do not store or carry flammable liquids, gases, or explosive materials in the
same compartment as the device, its parts, or enhancements. For vehicles equipped with an
air bag, remember that air bags inflate with great force. Do not place objects, including installed
or portable wireless equipment in the area over the air bag or in the air bag deployment area. If
in-vehicle wireless equipment is improperly installed, and the air bag inflates, serious injury
could result. Using your device while flying in aircraft is prohibited. Switch off your device
before boarding an aircraft. The use of wireless teledevices in an aircraft may be dangerous to
the operation of the aircraft, disrupt the wireless telephone network, and may be illegal.
Potentially explosive environments
Switch off your device when in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere and obey all
signs and instructions. Potentially explosive atmospheres include areas where you would
normally be advised to turn off your vehicle engine. Sparks in such areas could cause an
explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death. Switch off the device at refueling points
such as near gas pumps at service stations. Observe restrictions on the use of radio
equipment in fuel depots, storage, and distribution areas; chemical plants; or where blasting
operations are in progress. Areas with a potentially explosive atmospheres are often, but not
always, clearly marked. They include below deck on boats, chemical transfer or storage
facilities, vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas (such as propane or butane), and areas where
the air contains chemicals or particles such as grain, dust or metal powders.
Follow any restrictions. Do not use the device where blasting is in progress.
Emergency calls
Important: Wireless phones, including this device, operate using radio signals, wireless
networks, landline networks, and user-programmed functions. Because of this, connections in
all conditions cannot be guaranteed. You should never rely solely on any wireless device for
essential communications like medical emergencies.
If certain features are in use, you may first need to turn those features off before you can make
an emergency call. Consult this guide or your service provider for more information.
When making an emergency call, give all the necessary information as accurately as possible.
Your wireless device may be the only means of communication at the scene of an accident. Do
not end the call until given permission to do so.
