Interference in Cars
Please note that because of possible interference to electronic
equipment, some vehicle manufacturers forbid the use of mobile
phones in their vehicles unless a hands-free kit with an external
antenna is included in the installation.
Explosive Environments
Petrol Stations and Explosive Atmospheres
In locations with potentially explosive atmospheres, obey all posted
signs to turn off wireless devices such as your phone or other radio
equipment.
Areas with potentially explosive atmospheres include fuelling areas,
below decks on boats, fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities,
areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain,
dust, or metal powders.
Blasting Caps and Areas
Power off your mobile phone or wireless device when in a blasting
area or in areas posted power off “two-way radios” or “electronic
devices” to avoid interfering with blasting operations.
RF Exposure
Specific Absorption Rate (SAR)
Your mobile device is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed
not to exceed the limits for exposure to radio waves recommended
by international guidelines. These guidelines were developed by the
independent scientific organization ICNIRP and include safety
margins designed to assure the protection of all persons, regardless
of age and health.
