We recommend that you read this chapter carefully before
using your device. The manufacturer disclaims any liability for
damage, which may result as a consequence of improper use
or use contrary to the instructions contained herein.
• TRAFFIC SAFETY
Given that studies show that using a device while driving a
vehicle constitutes a real risk, even when the hands-free kit is
used (car kit, headset...), drivers are requested to refrain from
using their device when the vehicle is not parked.
When driving, do not use your device or headphone to
listen to music or to the radio. Using a headphone can be
dangerous and forbidden in some areas. When switched on,
your device emits electromagnetic waves that can interfere
with the vehicle's electronic systems such as ABS anti-lock
brakes or airbags. To ensure that there is no problem:
- do not place your device on top of the dashboard or within
an airbag deployment area,
check with your car dealer or the car manufacturer to make
-
sure that the dashboard is adequately shielded from device
RF energy.
