Aircraft Safety

The use of wireless phones in aircraft may be dangerous to the operation of the aircraft and may be illegal. Any use of a wireless
phone on board an aircraft must be in accordance with applicable regulations. Follow all flight crew instructions. When instructed
to turn off your wireless telephone, do so.

Road Safety

Check the laws and regulations concerning the use of wireless telephones and their accessories in the areas where you drive and
always obey them. If you find it necessary to use your cellular telephone behind the wheel of a car, please:
Give full attention to driving and exercise proper control of your vehicle at all times.
l
Observe all the recommendations contained in your local traffic safety documentation.
l
l Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call, if driving conditions so require.
Turn off your wireless phone at a refueling point, such as a gas station, even if you are not refueling your own car. The
l
wireless phone can still be a hazard in these areas even when set in vibrate mode.
Do not store or carry flammable or explosive materials in the same compartment as a wireless phone.
l
O
Use hands-free operation, if available, when driving.

Vehicles Equipped with an Air Bag

An air bag inflates with great force. Do not place objects, including either installed or portable wireless equipment, in the area over
the air bag or in the air bag deployment area. If wireless equipment is improperly installed in the vehicle and the air bag inflates,
serious injury could result.

Blasting Areas And Explosive Atmospheres

To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn Off your phone when in a blasting area or areas posted: "Turn Off Two-Way
Radio." Obey all signs and instructions.
Turn Off your phone prior to entering any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere, and obey all signs and instructions. Do not
remove, install, or change batteries in such areas. Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury
or even death.
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often, but not always, clearly marked. These include fueling areas such as
gasoline stations; below deck on boats; fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities; vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas (such
a propane or butane); areas where oxygen is used; 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 turned Off your vehicle engine.
