Important safety information

10. Important safety information
Traffic safety
Do not use a handset while driving a vehicle. Always secure the
phone in its holder; do not place the phone on the passenger
seat or where it can break loose in a collision or a sudden stop.
Remember: road safety always comes first!
Operating environment
Remember to follow any special regulations in force in any area
and always switch off your phone whenever it is forbidden to
use it, or when it may cause interference or danger.
Electronic devices
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from radio
frequency (RF) signals. However, certain electronic equipment
may not be shielded against the RF signals from your car phone.
Pacemakers
Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a minimum
separation distance of 20 cm be maintained between the
vehicle antenna 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.
If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking
place, switch your car phone over to off mode immediately.

Potentially explosive atmospheres
Switch your car phone over to off mode, see "Off mode" on
page 17, 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 not to use the car phone when at a refuelling
point. Remember to observe the 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 below deck on boats,
chemical transfer or storage facilities, vehicles using liquified
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.
Vehicles
Only qualified personnel should service the car phone or install
the car phone in a vehicle. Faulty installation or service may be
dangerous and may invalidate any warranty which 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.
