Exposure to flashing lights on your smartphone can cause epileptic
seizures or blackouts and might be dangerous to you or others. In the
event that you experience, or your use of your smartphone causes in
others, any disorientation, loss of awareness, twitching, convulsions, or
any involuntary movements, stop using your smartphone immediately and
consult a physician. The LED notification light is located on the front of
your smartphone, in the upper-right corner. If your smartphone model has
a camera, the camera flash LED aperture is located on the back of your
smartphone, either above or to the right of the camera lens. If you are
susceptible to epileptic seizures or blackouts, consult your physician before
you use your smartphone.
Do not use your smartphone while driving unless you are permitted by law
to use the smartphone in hands-free mode. Using your smartphone while
driving could put you and others at greater risk of an accident causing serious
injury, death, or property loss.
Do not use your smartphone in the presence of gas fumes because it might
present a risk of fire or explosion.
Do not dispose of your smartphone in a fire because this might cause an
explosion resulting in serious injury, death, or property loss.
Turn off your smartphone on aircrafts. Using your smartphone on an aircraft
might affect aircraft instrumentation, communication, and performance;
might disrupt the network; might otherwise be dangerous to the operation of
the aircraft, its crew, and its passengers; and might be illegal.
Smartphones are not intrinsically safe and cannot be used in the presence
of explosive fumes, explosive dust, or other explosive chemicals. Sparks in
such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in serious injury, death,
or damage to property.
Using your smartphone safely
• Do not place heavy objects on your smartphone.
• Do not attempt to modify or service your smartphone.
• Do not attempt to cover or push objects into openings on your smartphone unless
