Tips on Efficient Operation

For your phone to operate most
efficiently:
Don't touch the antenna
unnecessarily when the phone is in
use. Contact with the antenna
affects call quality and may cause
the phone to operate at a higher
power level than otherwise needed.

Driving

Check the laws and regulations on
the use of wireless phones in the
areas where you drive and always
obey them. Also, if using your
phone while driving, please observe
the following:
G
Give full attention to driving --
driving safely is your first
responsibility;
G
Use hands-free operation, if
available;
G
Pull off the road and park before
making or answering a call if
driving conditions or the law
require it.

Electronic Devices

Most modern electronic equipment
is shielded from RF signals. However,
certain electronic equipment may
not be shielded against the RF
signals from your wireless phone.

Pacemakers

The Health Industry Manufacturers
Association recommends that a
minimum separation of six (6)
inches be maintained between a
handheld wireless phone and a
pacemaker to avoid potential
interference with the pacemaker.
These recommendations are
consistent with the independent
research by and recommendations
of Wireless Technology Research.
Persons with pacemakers:
G
Should ALWAYS keep the phone
more than six (6) inches from
their pacemaker when the phone
is turned ON;
G
Should not carry the phone in a
breast pocket;
G
Should use the ear opposite the
pacemaker to minimize the
potential for interference;
