the potential for interference and remember to switch off the mobile phone if necessary.
ƒ If you use any other personal medical device, please consult the manufacturer of your device to
find out whether it is adequately shielded from radio frequency energy.

the loudspeaker is turned on.
9.7 Precautions for use in potentially explosive atmospheres
ƒ Switch off your phone prior to entering any area with potentially explosive atmospheres, such as
fuelling areas, or fuel or chemical storage or transfer facilities. Do not remove, install, or charge
batteries in such areas.
ƒ Sparks in a potentially explosive atmosphere can cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily
harm or death. To avoid possible interference with detonators, switch off your phone when you
are near electric blasting caps, a blasting area, or in areas where "Turn off electronic devices" is
posted. Always obey signs and instructions.
9.8 Precautions for electronic devices
ƒ Some electronic devices are susceptible to electromagnetic interferences from mobile phones if
inadequately shielded, such as the electronic system of vehicles; consult the manufacturers of
devices before using the phone, if necessary.
9.9 Safety and general use in vehicles
ƒ The safety airbag, brakes, speed control system and injection system should not be affected
by wireless transmission. If you encounter problems with the elements above, contact your car
dealer.
ƒ Do not place your phone in the area over an airbag or in the airbag deployment area. Airbags
inflate with a force that is proportional to the intensity of the collision. If a phone is placed in the
airbag deployment area and the airbag inflates, the phone can be forcefully propelled and cause
serious injury to occupants of the vehicle.
ƒ Switch off your mobile phone in service stations.

ƒ Switch off your mobile phone before the airplane takes off. In order to protect the airplane
communication system from interference, it is forbidden to use mobile phones during flight.

is on the ground. If your mobile phone has the automatic power-on function, ensure that it is
switched off before the flight.
