The operation of medical appliances may be affected. Be aware of the technical condi-
tions in your particular environment, e.g. doctor's surgery.

tion are not splash proof (page 26).
Do not use the phone in environments with a potential explosionhazard, e.g. auto paint

tial negative consequences for the environment and human health. It is a precondition for
