156 4A. Important Safety Information
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 your phone
off when in a blasting area or in other areas with signs
indicating two-way radios should be turned off. Construction
crews often use remote-control RF devices to set off explosives.
Turn your phone off when you’re in any area that has a
potentially explosive atmosphere. Although it’s rare, your phone
and accessories could generate sparks. Sparks can cause an
explosion or fire, resulting in bodily injury or even death. These
areas are often, but not always, clearly marked. They include:
䡲
Fueling areas such as gas stations.
䡲 Below deck on boats.
䡲 Fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities.
䡲 Areas where the air contains chemicals or particles such
as grain, dust, or metal powders.
䡲
Any other area where you would normally be advised to
turn off your vehicle’s engine.
Restricting Children’s Access to Your Phone
Your phone is not a toy. Do not allow children to play with it as
they could hurt themselves and others, damage the phone or
make calls that increase your Sprint invoice.
Please Note the Following Information When Using
Your Handset
1.
WARNING REGARDING DISPLAY
䡲 The display on your handset is made of glass or acrylic
and could break if your handset is dropped or if it
receives significant impact. Do not use if screen is broken
or cracked as this could cause injury to you.
2.
WARRANTY DISCLAIMER: PROPER USE OF A TOUCH
SCREEN HANDSET
䡲 If your handset has a touchscreen display, please note
that a touchscreen responds best to a light touch from
the pad of your finger. Using excessive force or a metallic
object when pressing on the touchscreen may damage
the tempered glass surface and void the warranty. For
more information, please refer to the “4B. Manufacturer’s
Warranty” on page 163.
Note:
Never transport or store flammable gas, flammable
liquids, or explosives in the compartment of your
vehicle that contains your phone or accessories.
