Driving
Laws pertaining to the use of mobile
phones while driving vary significantly from
state to state and sometimes even from lo-
cality 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 areas may prohibit
the use of cell phones entirely. Accordingly,
BenQ recommends 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,
BenQ 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 installed or
portable wireless equipment, in the area
over the air bag or in the air bag deploy-
ment area. If in-vehicle wireless equipment
is improperly installed and the air bag in-
flates, serious injury could result.
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' Associ-
ation recommends that a minimum separa-
tion of six inches (6") be maintained be-
tween a handheld wireless phone and a
pacemaker to avoid potential interference
with the pacemaker. These recommenda-
tions are consistent with the independent
research by and recommendations of Wire-
less 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.
