Health and Safety Information
Potentially Explosive Environments
Switch your phone off 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 the phone off while
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 the areas below decks on boats,
chemical transfer or storage facilities, vehicles
using liquefied 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.
Other Medical Devices
If you use any other personal medical devices,
consult the manufacturer of your device to
determine if it is adequately shielded from
external RF energy. Your physician may be able
to assist you in obtaining this information.
Switch your phone off 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. 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 off your phone in any facility where
posted notices require you to do so.
