use your phone safely
Orange believe your phone should help
give you the freedom and flexibility to
communicate whenever and however
you want. Please read this section to
ensure you always use it safely.
everyday use of your phone
Hold your phone as you would any other
telephone, with the antenna pointed up
and over your shoulder. If your phone
has an extendible antenna, extend it fully.
Do not touch the antenna unnecessarily
when the phone is switched on, as this
will affect call quality and may cause the
phone to operate at a higher power level
than is needed.
As with any other radio transmitting
equipment, you are advised that for the
satisfactory operation of your phone and
for your own safety, you should use your
phone only in the normal operating
position.
7.1
using your Orange phone in a
vehicle
Safety comes first, and is the ultimate
responsibility of the driver. Therefore:
Orange recommend that you do not
use your phone when driving, unless
you are using a personal handsfree kit
or personal handsfree carkit.
If you need to make or receive a call
and you have a personal handsfree kit
or personal handsfree carkit, make sure
it is done sensibly using speed dialling
or voice activation where possible, and
keeping calls brief and to a minimum.
If you don't have a personal handsfree
kit or personal handsfree carkit, stop
and park your vehicle safely before
using your phone, although never on a
motorway slip road even if it is urgent.
Do not store or carry inflammable
liquids, gases or explosive materials in
the same compartment as your phone,
its parts or accessories and always
store your phone safely and securely.
Orange recommend that you use a
phone holder in your car to secure your
phone safely.
Remember: Always give your full
attention to driving. There is a personal
handsfree kit and personal handsfree
carkit available for most Orange phones
which you can purchase separately by
calling the Orange Accessory Hotline or
visit your local stockist.
carkit installation
Only qualified personnel should install or
service the personal handsfree carkit in
a vehicle.
For vehicles equipped with an air bag,
remember that an air bag inflates with
great force. Do not install a personal
handsfree carkit or place other objects
in the area over the air bag or in the air
bag deployment area.
Faulty installation or service may be
dangerous and may invalidate any
warranty which may apply to the unit.
Always replace a blown fuse with a fuse
of the same type and size. Never use a
fuse of a higher rating.
Check regularly that all mobile phone
equipment in your vehicle is mounted
and operating properly.
Your mobile phone is a low power radio
transmitter and receiver. When it is
switched on, it receives and sends out
radio frequency (RF) signals.
use your phone safely
Most modern electronic equipment is
shielded from RF signals. However, RF
signals may affect improperly installed or
inadequately shielded electronic systems
in motor vehicles (eg. electronic fuel
injection, electronic anti-lock braking,
electronic speed control or airbag
systems etc). Always consult your vehicle
manufacturer and the manufacturer of
any equipment that has been added to
the vehicle.
emergency calls
Emergency calls are made in the UK by
dialling 999 or 112. Certain features
which restrict or bar outgoing calls may
affect emergency calls, either permitting
them whilst in use, or prohibiting them
until the feature is disabled. Please refer
to specific feature functions.
Note: A valid SIM Card must be inserted
in your phone in order to make
emergency calls. pay-as-you-go
customers do not need to have talk time
available.
