free device) is prohibited in some jurisdictions. Laws vary as to specific restrictions. Remember that safety

Following Safety Guidelines
To operate your phone safely and efficiently, always follow any special regulations in a given area. Turn
your phone off in areas where use is forbidden or when it may cause interference or danger.
Using Your Phone Near Other Electronic Devices
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from radio frequency (RF) signals. However, RF signals
from wireless phones may affect inadequately shielded electronic equipment.
RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic operating systems or
entertainment systems in motor vehicles. Check with the manufacturer or their representative to
determine if these systems are adequately shielded from external RF signals. Also check with the
manufacturer regarding any equipment that has been added to your vehicle.
Consult the manufacturer of any personal medical devices, such as pacemakers and hearing aids, to
determine if they are adequately shielded from external RF signals.
Note: Always turn off the phone in healthcare facilities, and request permission before using the phone
near medical equipment.
Turning Off Your Phone Before Flying
Turn off your phone before boarding any aircraft. To prevent possible interference with aircraft systems,
the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) regulations require you to have permission from a crew
member to use your phone while the plane is on the ground. To prevent any risk of interference, FCC
regulations prohibit using your phone while the plane is in the air.
Turning Off Your Phone in Dangerous Areas
To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your phone off when in a blasting area or in other areas
with signs indicating two-way radios should be turned off. Construction crews often use remote-control RF
devices to set off explosives. Turn your phone off when you're in any area that has a potentially explosive
atmosphere. Although it's rare, your phone and accessories could generate sparks. Sparks can cause an
explosion or fire, resulting in bodily injury or even death. These areas are often, but not always, clearly
marked. They include:
●
Fueling areas such as gas stations.
●
Below deck on boats.
●
Fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities.
●
Areas where the air contains chemicals or particles such as grain, dust, or metal powders.
●
Any other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle's engine.
