74 Safety Information
Hearing Aids
Some mobile devices may interfere with some
hearing aids. In the event of such interference, you
may want to consult your hearing aid
manufacturer or physician to discuss alternatives.
Other Medical Devices and Health Care
Facilities
If you use any other personal medical devices,
consult your physician or the manufacturer or your
device to determine if it is adequately shielded
from RF energy. Turn off your radio product when
instructed to do so in hospitals or health care
facilities that may be using equipment that is
sensitive to external RF energy.
Driving Precautions
Check the laws and regulations on the use of radio
products in the area where you drive. Always obey
them.
When using your radio product while driving,
please:
• Give full attention to driving and to the
road. Using a mobile device may be
distracting. Discontinue a call if you can’t
concentrate on driving.
• Use handsfree operation, if available.
• Pull off the road and park before making or
answering a call if driving conditions so
require.
• Do not place a handset in the airbag
deployment area.
Responsible driving practices can be found in the
“Smart Practices While Driving” section at the end
of this guide and/or at the Motorola Web site:
www.motorola.com/callsmart.
Note: The use of wireless phones while driving
may cause distraction. Discontinue a call if you
can’t concentrate on driving. Additionally, the use
of wireless devices and their accessories may be
prohibited or restricted in certain areas. Always
obey the laws and regulations on the use of these
products.
Operational Warnings
Obey all posted signs when using mobile devices
in public areas.
Potentially Explosive Atmospheres
Areas with potentially explosive atmospheres are
often but not always posted, and can include
fueling areas such as below decks on boats, fuel
or chemical transfer or storage facilities, or areas
where the air contains chemicals or particles,
such as grain, dust or metal powders.
When you are in such area, turn off your hanset,
and do not remove, install, or charge batteries
unless it is a radio product type especially
qualified for use in such areas as “Intrinsically
Safe” (for example, Factory Mutual, CSA, or UL
approved). In such areas, sparks can occur and
cause an explosion or fire.
