Hearing aids
Some digital wireless phones may
interfere with some hearing aids. In the
event of such interference, you may want
to consult your service provider.
Other medical devices
Operation of any radio transmitting
equipment, including cellular phones,
may interfere with the functionality of
inadequately protected medical devices.
Consult a physician or the manufacturer
of the medical device to determine if they
are adequately shielded from external RF
energy or if you have any questions.
Switch off your phone 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 (e.g.
electronic fuel injection systems,
electronic anti-skid (anti-lock) braking
systems, electronic speed control
systems, air-bag 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.
Posted facilities
Switch your phone off in any facility
where posted notices so require.
■
Potentially explosive
atmospheres
Switch off your phone when in any area
with a potentially explosive atmosphere
and obey all signs and instructions.
Sparks in such areas could cause an
explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury
or even death.
Users are advised to switch off the phone
when at a refuelling point (service
station). Users are reminded of the need
to observe restrictions on the use of radio
equipment in fuel depots (fuel storage
and distribution areas), chemical plants
or where blasting operations are in
progress.
Areas with a potentially explosive
atmosphere are often but not always
clearly marked. They include below deck
on boats; chemical transfer or storage
facilities; vehicles using liquified
petroleum gas (such as propane or
butane); 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.
■
Vehicles
Only qualified personnel should service
the phone, or install the phone in a
vehicle. Faulty installation or service may
be dangerous and may invalidate any
warranty which may apply to the unit.
Check regularly that all wireless phone
equipment in your vehicle is mounted
and operating properly.
Do not store or carry flammable liquids,
gases or explosive materials in the same
compartment as the phone, its parts or
accessories.
