engine. Sparks in such areas could cause
an explosion or fire resulting in bodily
injury or even death. Switch off the
device at refueling points such as near
gas pumps at service stations. Observe
restrictions on the use of radio
equipment in fuel depots, 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
below deck on boats, chemical transfer or
storage facilities, vehicles using liquefied
petroleum gas (such as propane or
butane), and areas where the air contains
chemicals or particles such as grain, dust,
or metal powders.
■ Emergency calls
Important: Wireless phones,
including this device, operate
using radio signals, wireless
networks, landline networks,
and user-programmed
functions. Because of this,
connections in all conditions
cannot be guaranteed. You
should never rely solely on any
wireless device for essential
communications like medical
emergencies.

needed to clear the display and ready
the device for calls.

the only means of communication at the
scene of an accident. Do not end the call
