phone, its accessories and other devices,
such as a support for the phone, a notepad
or a portable infotainment system, correct-
ly fastened and away from the airbag
areas or safely stored.
WARNING
If mobile phones and radiocommunications
devices are used without connection to an
external antenna, the maximum electro-
magnetic radiation levels inside the vehicle
might be surpassed, thus posing a risk to
the health of the driver and passengers.
This is also the case if the aerial has not
been correctly installed.
Keep a distance of at least 20 centime-
●
tres between the antennas of the mobile
phone and an active medical device, such
as a pacemaker, as mobile phones might
alter the operation of these devices.
Do not carry a mobile phone very close
●
or directly above an active medical device,
for instance in a chest pocket.
Immediately turn off the phone if you sus-
●
pect it is causing interferences in an active
medical device or any other medical de-
vice.
WARNING
If the centre armrest is extended it may ob-
struct the driver's arm movements, which
could cause an accident and severe inju-
ries.
Always keep the armrest closed while the
●
vehicle is in motion.
CAUTION
High speeds, poor weather or road condi-
tions and the quality of reception can all
affect the quality of a telephone conversa-
tion in the vehicle.
