Always secure the phone into its holder; do not place the phone on the
passenger seat or where it can break loose in a collision or a sudden stop.

Note: The use of an alert device to operate a vehicle’s lights or
horn on public roads is not permitted.

Remember: Road safety always comes first!

Operating environment

Remember to follow any special regulations that are in force in any area,
and always switch off your phone wherever it is forbidden to use it, or
when it may cause interference or danger.

Use the phone only in its normal operating positions.

Electronic devices

Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from radio frequency (RF)
signals. However, certain electronic equipment may not be shielded against
the RF signals from your wireless phone. The following four subsections
provide more information about this topic.

PACEMAKERS
Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a minimum separation of six
inches (20 cm) be maintained between a handheld wireless phone and a
pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the pacemaker. These
recommendations are consistent with the independent research by and
recommendations of Wireless Technology Research. Persons with pacemakers:

Should always keep the phone more than 6 inches (20 cm) from their
pacemakers when the phone is switched on

Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket

Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential
for interference

Caution: If you have any reason to suspect that interference is
taking place, switch off your phone immediately.

HEARING AIDS
Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some hearing aids. In the
event of such interference, you may want to consult your service provider.
