Check the laws and regulations on the use of wireless
telephones in the areas where you drive. Always obey them.
Also, if using your phone while driving, please:
n
Give full attention to driving — driving safely is your first
responsibility.
n
Use hands-free operation, if available:
n
Pull off the road and park before making or answering a
call if driving conditions so require

Electronic Devices
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF signals.
However, certain electronic equipment may not be shielded
against the RF signals from your wireless phone.
Pacemakers
The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends
that a minimum separation of six (6”) inches 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
:
n
Should ALWAYS keep the phone more than six inches
from their pacemaker when the phone is turned ON.
n
Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket.
n
Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the
potential for interference.
n
If you have any reason to suspect that interference is
taking place, turn your phone OFF immediately
.
Other Medical Devices
If you use any other personal medical device, consult the
manufacturer of your device to determine if they are adequately
shielded from external RF energy. Your physician may be able
to assist you in obtaining this information.
Turn your phone OFF in health care facilities when any regulations
posted in these areas instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care
facilities may be using equipment that could be sensitive to external
RF energy.
Vehicles
RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately
shielded electronic systems in motor vehicles. Check with the
manufacturer or its representative regarding your vehicle. You
should also consult the manufacturer of any equipment that has
been added to your vehicle.
For Vehicles Equipped with an Air Bag
An air bag inflates with great force. DO NOT place objects,
including both 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.
