Smart Practices While Driving

Check the laws and regulations on the use of mobile
devices and their accessories in the areas where you
drive. Always obey them. The use of these devices
may be prohibited or restricted in certain areas. Go to
www.motorola.com/callsmart for more information.
Your mobile device lets you communicate by voice and data—almost
anywhere, anytime, wherever wireless service is available and
safe conditions allow. When driving a car, driving is your fi rst
responsibility. If you choose to use your mobile device while driving,
remember the following tips:
• Get to know your Motorola mobile device and its features
such as speed dial and redial. If available, these features help
you to place your call without taking your attention off the road.
• When available, use a handsfree device.
If possible, add an additional layer of convenience
to your mobile device with one of the many Motorola
Original handsfree accessories available today.
• Position your mobile device within easy reach.
Be able to access your mobile device without removing your eyes
from the road. If you receive an incoming call at an inconvenient time,
if possible, let your voice mail answer it for you.
• Let the person you are speaking with know you are driving;
if necessary, suspend the call in heavy traffi c or hazardous
weather conditions. Rain, sleet, snow, ice, and even heavy traffi c
can be hazardous.
• Do not take notes or look up phone numbers while driving.
Jotting down a "to do" list or going through your address book takes
attention away from your primary responsibility—driving safely.
