Driving
Laws pertaining to the use of mobile
phones while driving vary significantly
from state to state and sometimes even
from locality to locality within states. For
example, some areas may allow persons
to use their mobile phones only if they
employ a hands-free device, and some ar-
eas may prohibit the use of cell phones
entirely. Accordingly, Siemens recom-
mends that persons check the laws for
the areas in which they drive or will be
driving. For areas where the use of mo-
bile phones while driving is permitted, Si-
emens encourages persons to use their
phones responsibly and to employ hands-
free devices. Also, if using your phone
while driving, please:
• Give full attention to driving – driving
safely is your first responsibility;
• Use hands-free operation, if available;
• Pull off the road and park before mak-
ing or answering a call, if driving condi-
tions so require.
For vehicles equipped with air bags
An air bag inflates with great force.
DO NOT place objects, including either in-
stalled or portable wireless equipment, in
the area over the air bag or in the air bag
deployment area. If in-vehicle wireless
equipment is improperly installed and the
air bag inflates, serious injury could re-
sult.
Electronic devices
Most modern electronic equipment is
shielded from radio frequency (RF) sig-
nals. However, certain electronic equip-
ment may not be shielded against the RF
signals from your wireless phone.
Pacemakers
The Health Industry Manufacturers' Asso-
ciation recommends that a minimum sep-
aration of six inches (6") be maintained
between a handheld wireless phone and
a pacemaker to avoid potential interfer-
ence with the pacemaker. These recom-
mendations are consistent with the inde-
pendent research by and
recommendations of Wireless Technology
Research.
Persons with pacemakers
• should ALWAYS keep the phone more
than six inches from their pacemaker
when the phone is turned ON;
• should not carry the phone in a breast
pocket;
• should use the ear opposite the pace-
maker to minimize the potential for in-
terference;
• should turn the phone OFF immediate-
ly if there is any reason to suspect that
interference is taking place.
Hearing aids
Some digital wireless phones may
interfere with some hearing aids. In the
event of such interference, you may want
to consult your service provider or your
hearing aid manufacturer to discuss alter-
natives.
Other medical devices
If you use any other personal medical de-
vices, consult the manufacturers of your
devices to determine if they are ade-
quately shielded from external RF energy.
Your physician may be able to assist you
in obtaining this information.
Turn your phone OFF in health care facili-
ties when any regulations posted in these
areas instruct you to do so. Hospitals or
health care facilities may be using equip-
ment that could be sensitive to external
RF energy.
