SAFETY GUIDELINES
Using Your Phone While Driving
Talking on your phone while driving (or operating the
phone without a hands-free device) is prohibited in
some jurisdictions. Laws vary as to specific
restrictions. Remember that safety always comes first.
Tip: Purchase an optional hands-free accessory at your
local Telecom Store.
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
radiofrequency (RF) signals. However, RF signals from
mobile phones may affect inadequately shielded
electronic equipment.
RF signals may affect improperly installed or
inadequately shielded electronic operating systems
and/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
102
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 health-care 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,
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.
