RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic systems in motor 
vehicles (including safety systems). 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.
An air bag inflates with great force. DO NOT place objects, including either 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. 
Position your device within easy reach. Be able to access your device without removing your eyes 
from the road.
Note: Connection to an alert device that will cause a vehicle horn to sound or lights to flash, on receipt 
of a call on public roads, is not permitted.

Do not take notes or use the device while driving. Jotting down a “to do” list or flipping through your 
address book takes attention away from your primary responsibility, driving safely. 
When driving a car, driving is your first responsibility - Give full attention to driving. Check the laws and 
regulations on the use of wireless devices in the areas where you drive. Always obey them.
When using a wireless device behind the wheel of a car, practice good common sense and remember 
the following tips:

1. Get to know your wireless device and any features such as speed dial and redial. If available, these 

features help you to place your call without taking your attention off the road.

2. When available, use a hands free device.
3. Let the person you are speaking with know you are driving; if necessary, suspend the call in heavy 

traffic or hazardous weather conditions. Rain, sleet, snow, ice, and even heavy traffic can be 
hazardous. 

4. Dial sensibly and assess the traffic; if possible, place calls when you are not moving or before 

pulling into traffic. Try to plan calls when your car will be stationary. If you need to make a call while 
moving, dial only a few numbers, check the road and your mirrors, then continue. 

5. Do not engage in stressful or emotional conversations that may be distracting. Make people you 

are talking with aware you are driving and suspend conversations that have the potential to divert 
your attention from the road.

6. Use your wireless phone to call for help. Dial the Emergency services, (9-1-1 in the US, and 1-1-2 

in Europe) or other local emergency number in the case of fire, traffic accident or medical 
emergencies. Remember, it is a free call on your wireless phone! The call can be made regardless 
of any security codes and depending on a network, with or without a SIM card inserted.

7. Use your wireless phone to help others in emergencies. If you see an auto accident, crime in 

progress or other serious emergency where lives are in danger, call the Emergency Services, (9-1-
1 in the US, and 1-1-2 in Europe) or other local emergency number, as you would want others to do 
for you.

8. Call roadside assistance or a special non-emergency wireless assistance number when necessary. 

If you see a broken-down vehicle posing no serious hazard, a broken traffic signal, a minor traffic 
accident where no one appears injured, or a vehicle you know to be stolen, call roadside assistance 
or other special non-emergency wireless number.

“The wireless industry reminds you to use your device / phone safely when driving.”

Please observe all warning notices with regard to the usage of wireless devices.

You are reminded of the need to observe restrictions on the use of radio devices in fuel depots, 
chemical plants etc. and areas where the air contains chemicals or particles (such as grain, dust, or 
metal powders) and any other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle 
engine.

Switch off your wireless device whenever you are instructed to do so by airport or airline staff. If your 
device offers a 'flight mode' or similar feature, consult airline staff as to its use in flight.

Wireless devices transmit radio frequency energy and may affect medical electrical equipment.
Wireless devices should be switched off wherever you are requested to do so in hospitals, clinics or 
healthcare facilities. These requests are designed to prevent possible interference with sensitive 
medical equipment.

Pacemaker manufacturers recommended that a minimum of 15 cm (6 inches) be maintained between 
a handheld wireless device and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the pacemaker. 
These recommendations are consistent with independent research and recommendations by Wireless 
Technology Research.
Persons with pacemakers:
• Should ALWAYS keep the device more than 15cm (6 inches) from their pacemaker when turned 

ON.

• Should not carry the device in a breast pocket.
• Should use the ear furthest from the pacemaker to minimize the potential for interference.
• If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place, turn OFF your device.

Please consult your physician or the manufacturer of the medical device, to determine if the operation 
of your wireless product may interfere with the medical device.
