RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic operating
systems and/or entertainment systems in motor vehicles. Check with the manufacturer or
their representative to determine if these systems are adequately shielded from external
RF signals. Also check with the manufacturer regarding any equipment that has been
added to your vehicle.
Consult the manufacturer of any personal medical devices, such as pacemakers and
hearing aids, to determine if they are adequately shielded from external RF signals.
Note:
Always turn off the phone in health care facilities and request permission before
using the phone near medical equipment.
Turning Off Your Phone Before Flying
Turn off your phone before boarding any aircraft. To prevent possible interference with
aircraft systems, the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) regulations require you to
have permission from a crew member to use your phone while the plane is on the ground.
To prevent any risk of interference, FCC regulations prohibit using your phone while the
plane is in the air.
Turning Off Your Phone in Dangerous Areas
To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn off your phone when in a blasting area or
in other areas with signs indicating that two-way radios should be turned off. Construction
crews often use remote-control RF devices to set off explosives.
Turn off your phone when you are in an area with a potentially explosive
atmosphere. Although it is rare, your phone or its accessories could
generate sparks. Sparks could cause an explosion or a fire resulting in
bodily injury or even death. These areas are often, but not always, clearly
marked. These areas include:
•
Fueling areas such as gas stations.
•
Below deck on boats.
•
Fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities.
•
Areas where the air contains chemicals or particles such as grain, dust or metal
powders.
•
Any other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle’s
engine.
