Other Medical Devices
If you use any other personal medical devices, consult the
manufacturer of your device to determine if it is adequately
shielded from external RF energy. Your physician may be able
to assist you in obtaining this information. Switch your phone
off in health care facilities when any regulations posted in
these areas instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care
facilities may be using equipment that could be sensitive to
external RF energy.
Vehicles
RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately
shielded electronic systems in motor vehicles. Check with the
manufacturer or its representative regarding your vehicle.
You should also consult the manufacturer of any equipment
that has been added to your vehicle. You should also consult
the manufacturer of any equipment that has been added to

Potentially Explosive Environments
Switch your phone off 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 to switch the phone off while at a refueling
point (service station). Users are reminded of the need to
observe 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 the areas below deck
on boats, chemical transfer or storage facilities, vehicles using
liquefied 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.
Emergency Calls
This phone, like any wireless phone, operates using radio
signals, wireless and landline networks as well as user-
programmed functions, which cannot guarantee connection in
all conditions. Therefore, you should never rely solely on any
wireless phone for essential communications (medical
emergencies, for example).
Remember, to make or receive any calls the phone must be
switched on and in a service area with adequate signal
strength. Emergency calls may not be possible on all wireless
phone networks or when certain network services and/or
phone features are in use. Check with local service providers.
