with some hearing aids. In the event of such
interference, you may want to consult your
hearing aid manufacturer to discuss
alternatives.
Other Medical Devices
If you use any other personal medical device,
consult the manufacturer of your device to
determine if it is adequately shielded from RF
energy. Your doctor may be able to assist you

12 Safety Information
Damaged Products
If your phone or battery has been submerged
in water, punctured, or subjected to a severe
fall, do not use it until you take it to a
Motorola Authorised Service Centre to
determine if it has been damaged. Do not
attempt to dry it with an external heat source,
such as a microwave oven.
Batteries and Chargers
Batteries can cause property damage and/or
bodily injury such as burns if a conductive
material such as jewellery, keys, or beaded
chains touch exposed terminals. The
conductive material may complete an
electrical circuit (short circuit) and become
hot. Take care when handling a charged
battery, particularly when placing it inside a
pocket, purse, or other container with metal
objects. Use only Motorola Original™
batteries and chargers.
14 Safety Information
Use While Driving
Check the laws and regulations on the use of
phones in the area where you drive. Always

When using your phone while driving, please:

in certain circumstances. Discontinue a
call if you can't concentrate on driving.
• Use handsfree operation, if available.
• Pull off the road and park before
making or answering a call if driving
conditions so require.
Responsible driving best practices can be
found in the "Wireless Phone Safety Tips" at
the end of this guide and/or at the Motorola

Operational Warnings
For Vehicles With an Air Bag
Do not place a phone in the area over an air
bag or in the air bag deployment area. Air
bags inflate with great force. If a phone is
placed in the air bag deployment area and the
air bag inflates, the phone may be propelled
with great force and cause serious injury to
occupants of the vehicle.
Gas or Petrol Stations
Obey all posted signs with respect to the use
of radio equipment in gas or petrol stations.
Turn off your wireless device if instructed by
authorised staff.
Choking Hazards
Your phone or its accessories may include
detachable parts, which may present a
choking hazard to small children. Keep your
phone and its accessories away from small
children.
Glass Parts
Some parts of your mobile device may be
made of glass. This glass could break if the
product is dropped on a hard surface or
receives a substantial impact. If glass breaks,
do not touch or attempt to remove. Stop
using your mobile device until the glass is
replaced by a qualified service centre.
Potentially Explosive Atmospheres
Turn off your phone prior to entering any area
with a potentially explosive atmosphere. Do
not remove, install, or charge batteries in
such areas. Sparks in a potentially explosive
atmosphere can cause an explosion or fire
resulting in bodily injury or even death.
Note: The areas with potentially explosive
atmospheres referred to above include
fuelling areas such as below decks on boats,
fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities,
areas where the air contains chemicals or
particles, such as grain, dust, or metal
powders. Areas with potentially explosive
atmospheres are often but not always posted.
Blasting Caps and Areas
To avoid possible interference with blasting
operations, turn OFF your phone when you
are near electrical blasting caps, in a blasting
area, or in areas posted "Turn off electronic
devices." Obey all signs and instructions.
Safety Information 13
Seizures/Blackouts
Some people may be susceptible to epileptic
seizures or blackouts when exposed to
flashing lights, such as when watching
television or playing video games. These
seizures or blackouts may occur even if a
person never had a previous seizure or
blackout.
If you have experienced seizures or blackouts,
or if you have a family history of such
occurrences, please consult your doctor
before playing video games on your phone or
enabling a flashing-lights feature on your
phone (the flashing-light feature is not
available on all products).
