WARNING
An unsecured or improperly secured mobile phone may be thrown through the
interior of the vehicle and cause injuries in a sudden driving or braking ma-
noeuvre or accident.
● Always securely fasten or stow the mobile phone properly and outside the
airbag deployment areas while driving.
WARNING
If using a mobile phone or two-way radio equipment without it connecting to
an external aerial, the limits for electromagnetic radiation in the vehicle may
be exceeded. This also applies to an improperly installed external aerial.
● Keep at least 8 in (20 cm) distance between the aerials of the mobile
phone and a pacemaker, as mobile phones can interfere with the function of
pacemakers.
● Do not carry a switched-on mobile phone in your breast pocket directly
over the pacemaker.
● In case of suspected interference, switch off the mobile phone immediate-
ly.
