Obey all posted signs with respect to the use of radio equipment in gas or
petrol stations. Turn off your wireless device if instructed by authorised
staff.

Potentially Explosive Atmospheres

Turn off your phone prior to entering any area with a potentially explosive
atmosphere. Do not remove, install, or charge batteries in such areas.
Sparks in a potentially explosive atmosphere can cause an explosion or fire
resulting in bodily injury or even death.
Note: The areas with potentially explosive atmospheres referred to above
include fuelling areas such as below decks on boats, fuel or chemical
transfer or storage facilities, areas where the air contains chemicals or
particles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders. Areas with potentially
explosive atmospheres are often but not always posted.
Blasting Caps and Areas
To avoid possible interference with blasting operations, turn OFF your
phone when you are near electrical blasting caps, in a blasting area, or in
areas posted "Turn off electronic devices." Obey all signs and instructions.
Damaged Products
If your phone or battery has been submerged in water, punctured, or
subjected to a severe fall, do not use it until you take it to a Motorola
Authorised Service Centre to determine if it has been damaged. Do not
attempt to dry it with an external heat source, such as a microwave oven.

Safety Information
Glass parts
Some parts of your mobile device may be made of glass. This glass could
break if the product is dropped on a hard surface or receives a substantial
impact. If glass breaks, do not touch or attempt to remove. Stop using your
mobile device until the glass is replaced by a qualified service centre.
Seizures/Blackouts
Some people may be susceptible to epileptic seizures or blackouts when
exposed to flashing lights, such as when watching television or playing
video games. These seizures or blackouts may occur even if a person never
had a previous seizure or blackout.
If you have experienced seizures or blackouts, or if you have a family
history of such occurrences, please consult your doctor before playing video
games on your phone or enabling a flashing-lights feature on your phone
(the flashing-light feature is not available on all products).
Parents should monitor their children's use of video game or other features
that incorporate flashing lights on the phones. All persons should
discontinue use and consult a doctor if any of the following symptoms
occur: convulsion, eye or muscle twitching, loss of awareness, involuntary
movements, or disorientation.
To limit the likelihood of such symptoms, please take the following safety
precautions:
• Do not play or use a flashing-lights feature if you are tired or need
sleep.
• Take a minimum of a 15-minute break hourly.
• Play in a room in which all lights are on.
• Play at the farthest distance possible from the screen.

container with metal objects. Use only Motorola Original™ batteries
and chargers.
