Children
Your phone is not a toy. Do not allow small children
to play with it. They could hurt themselves or others.
Children could also damage the phone or make
calls that increase your telephone bill.
Pacemakers
Sendo recommends that a minimum separation of
20 cm (or 6 inches) be maintained between a
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:
*
Should always keep the phone more than 20 cm
(or 6 inches) from their pacemaker when the
phone is switched on;
*
Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket;
*
Should use the ear furthest away from the
pacemaker to minimise the potential for
interference.
*
If you have any reason to suspect that
interference is taking place, switch off your
phone immediately.
Hearing Aids
Some wireless phones may interfere with some
hearing aids. In the event of such interference, you
should consult your service provider.
Medical Equipment
Operation of wireless phones may interfere with
inadequately protected medical devices. Consult a
physician or the manufacturer of the medical
device to determine if it is adequately shielded from
external RF energy. Turn off your phone in hospitals
and other health care facilities when any
regulations posted in these areas instruct you to do
so, as equipment that could be sensitive to external
RF energy may be in operation.
Vehicles
RF signals may affect improperly installed or
inadequately shielded electronic systems in motor
vehicles (e.g. electronic fuel injection systems,
electronic anti-skid (anti-lock) braking systems,
electronic speed control systems, air bag systems).
Check with the supplier or its representative
regarding your vehicle. You should also consult the
supplier of any equipment that has been added to
your vehicle.
Do not place your phone or any accessories in the
area over an airbag or in the airbag's deployment
area. An airbag inflates with great force, and
serious injury could occur.
Using your phone in a vehicle demands special
considerations. The fitting of any accessories to a
vehicle should only be undertaken by a suitably
qualified person to ensure that vehicle systems are
not adversely affected, and that the accessory
gives optimum performance.
Only qualified personnel should service the phone,
or install the phone in a vehicle. Faulty installation or
service may be dangerous and may invalidate any
warranty that may apply to the unit.
Check regularly that all wireless phone equipment
in your vehicle is mounted and operating properly.
Do not store or carry flammable liquids, gases or
explosive materials in the same compartment as
the phone, its parts or accessories.
Switch off your phone before boarding a non-
commercial aircraft or when instructed to do so on
a commercial airline. The use of wireless
