wish to consult your hearing aid manufacturer to discuss
alternatives.
Other medical devices
If you use any other personal medical devices, consult the
manufacturer of your device to determine if it is
adequately shielded from external RF energy.
Your physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this
information.
Switch off your phone in health care facilities when
regulations posted in these areas instruct you to do so.
Vehicles
RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately
shielded electronic systems in motor vehicles. Check with
the manufacturer or its representative regarding your
vehicle.
You should also consult the manufacturer of any
equipment that has been added to your vehicle.
Posted facilities
Switch off your phone in any facility where posted notices
require you to do so.
Potentially explosive environments
Switch off your phone when in any area with a potentially
explosive atmosphere, and obey all signs and instructions.
Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire
resulting in bodily injury or even death.
Users are advised to switch off the phone while at a
refuelling point (service station). Users are reminded of
the need to observe restrictions on the use of radio
equipment in fuel depots (fuel storage and distribution
areas), chemical plants, or where blasting operations are
in progress.
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often
but not always clearly marked. They include the areas
below decks on boats, chemical transfer or storage
facilities, vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas, such as
propane or butane, areas where the air contains chemicals
or particles, such as grain, dust or metal powders, and any
other area where you would normally be advised to turn
off your vehicle engine.
