Safety and use .............................

We recommend that you read this chapter carefully before using your mobile phone. The
manufacturer disclaims any liability for damage, which may result as a consequence of improper
use or use contrary to the instructions contained herein.
• TRAFFIC SAFETY:
Given that studies show that using a mobile phone while driving a vehicle constitutes a real risk,
even when the hands-free kit is used (car kit, headset...), drivers are requested to refrain from
using their mobile phone when the vehicle is not parked. Check the laws and regulations on the
use of wireless mobile phones and their accessories in the areas where you drive. Always obey
them. The use of these devices may be prohibited or restricted in certain areas.
When driving, do not use your mobile phone and headphone to listen to music or to the radio.
Using a headphone can be dangerous and forbidden in some areas.
When switched on, your mobile phone emits electromagnetic waves that can interfere with the
vehicle's electronic systems such as ABS anti-lock brakes or airbags. To ensure that there is no
problem:
- do not place your mobile phone on top of the dashboard or within an airbag deployment area,
- check with your car dealer or the car manufacturer to make sure that the car's electronic devices
are shielded from mobile phone RF energy.
• CONDITIONS OF USE:
You are advised to switch off the mobile phone from time to time to optimize its performance.
Remember to abide by local authority rules of mobile phone use on aircrafts.
Operational Warnings: Obey all posted signs when using mobile devices in public areas.
Follow Instructions to Avoid Interference Problems: Turn off your mobile device in any location
where posted notices instruct you to do so. In an aircraft, turn off your mobile device whenever
instructed to do so by airline staff. If your mobile device offers an airplane mode or similar feature,
consult airline staff about using it in flight.
Switch the mobile phone off when you are in health care facilities, except in designated areas. As
with many other types of equipment now in regular use, mobile phones can interfere with other
electrical or electronic devices, or equipment using radio frequency.
Switch the mobile phone off when you are near gas or flammable liquids. Strictly obey all signs and
instructions posted in a fuel depot, gas station, or chemical plant, or in any potentially explosive
atmosphere.
When the mobile phone is switched on, it should be kept at least 15 cm from any medical device
such as a pacemaker, a hearing aid or insulin pump. In particular when using the mobile phone you
should hold it against the ear on the opposite side to the device, if any.
Read and follow the directions from the manufacturer of your implantable medical device. If you
have any questions about using your mobile device with your implantable medical device, consult
your healthcare provider.
To avoid hearing impairment, answer the call before holding your mobile phone to your ear. Also
move the handset away from your ear while using the "hands-free" option because the amplified
volume might cause hearing damage.
It is recommended to have proper supervision while small children use your mobile phone.
