Safety notes
For your own safety
Your car phone makes life more convenient in
many ways, and can even save lives in an emer-
gency. While you should consult your portable
phone's separate Owner's Manual for a detailed
description of safety precautions and informa-
tion, we request that you direct your particular
attention to the following:
Adjustments
To avoid posing a danger to yourself and
other road users, never adjust the system
settings unless your vehicle is stationary.
<
Using the phone in your vehicle
Using a portable phone while driving is
already illegal in many states and cities.
Always use your hands-free system, or stop
your vehicle in an area where you will not pose a
safety hazard to other road users.
<
Vehicles and portable phones
Do not use your phone within a garage, or
near an open hood. The air in these areas
could contain fuel vapors, and the portable
phone might generate sparks that could result
in burns.
This same precaution applies to open luggage
compartment lids on vehicles equipped for
operation using natural gas or hydrogen, and to
all vehicles with luggage compartment-
mounted batteries.
<
Antenna
When using the phone, ensure that all
persons in the area are at least 20 in/
50 cm from the antenna. Never use your porta-
ble phone if the antenna is damaged. Contact
between your skin and a damaged antenna can
result in minor burns.
If the antenna is damaged, have it replaced
immediately.
<
Special environmental conditions
Always switch off your portable phone in
areas where blasting work is being con-
ducted with explosives. The phone signals
could potentially act as a high-frequency trans-
mitter and set off explosions.
Always switch off your portable phone in areas
where an increased explosion danger is
present. This category includes gas stations
along with fuel and chemical storage depots,
etc., and all areas in which the air can contain
fuel, chemicals or metal particles. Under these
conditions, your portable phone could conceiv-
ably generate sparks that could lead to a fire or
explosion. Always observe all legal regulations
governing the use of portable phones in the
vicinity of gas stations, chemical factories and
other areas where an explosion potential exists.
Never use your portable phone in aircraft; do
not use this portable phone in hospitals, care
centers or at other locations where medical
equipment may be in operation, such as acci-
dent sites, etc.
Your wireless service provider can furnish you
with more detailed information on legal regula-
tions governing the use of your phone.
<
Medical equipment
Portable phones can generate interfer-
ence capable of preventing hearing aids
and cardiac pacemakers from operating cor-
rectly. If you or any occupant of the vehicle use
such equipment, consult a physician or the
manufacturer of the equipment to determine
whether it is adequately shielded against high-
frequency energy.
<
Batteries
Never attempt to dismantle your portable
phone or its battery. Use only approved
battery types – the wrong battery can destroy
