Do not keep or transport flammable liquids, gases or explosives together with the unit
or its accessories. For vehicles equipped with air bags: Remember that air bags fill with
air with considerable force.
Do not place objects, including fixed or portable radio equipment in the area above the
airbag or the area where it might expand. Serious injuries may be caused if the mobile
phone equipment is incorrectly installed and the airbag fills with air.
It is prohibited to use the unit in flight. Turn off the unit before you board a plane. Using
wireless telecom units inside a plane can pose risks to air safety and interfere with tele-
communications. It may also be illegal.

WARNING
Use of this unit alone or with headphones (even if used only in one ear) while driving
a motor vehicle or riding a bicycle is dangerous and is illegal in some areas, and the
user should not engage in such conduct. Driving while operating a mobile phone is
distracting and could cause serious injury or death.
If you decide to use this unit while driving or riding a bicycle, keep in mind the following
guidelines:
•
Give full attention to driving and to the road.
Using a mobile device while driving may be distracting. If you find it disruptive or
distracting while operating any type of vehicle, riding a bicycle, or performing any
activity that requires your full attention, pull off the road and park before making or
answering a call if driving conditions require.
•
Get to know your phone and its features such as phone book, call memory, and
speakerphone.
These features help you to place your call without taking your attention off the road.
See the applicable portion of this user’s guide for more information.
•
Use a hands-free device.
Add an extra layer of convenience and safety to your unit with one of the many
hands-free accessories available.Use of a headset or other hands-free device may
be legally required.Several states have in recent years passed laws making it un-
lawful to operate a motor vehicle while talking on a wireless phone without use of a
headset, speakerphone, or other hands-free device. County and municipal ordinan-
ces may also limit or ban wireless conversations for automobile drivers. You should
therefore check the status of such laws in your area and in locations to which you
travel by car, whether or not you otherwise follow the preferred safety practice of
routinely using a hands-free device.For SMS text messaging, it is a recommended
safety practice that you never send or view received text messages while driving; in
California, and likely other states in the future, SMS messaging by a driver is also a
legal violation.
•
Position phone within easy reach.
