Following Safety Guidelines

To operate your phone safely and efficiently, always follow any special regulations in a given
area. Turn your phone off in areas where use is forbidden or when it may cause interference
or danger.

Medical Devices

If you have a medical device, including an implantable medical device such as a pacemaker or
defibrillator, consult your healthcare provider and the device manufacturer's directions
before using this mobile phone.
Persons with implantable medical devices:
● Should always keep the mobile phone more than six (6) inches from the implantable
medical device when the mobile phone is turned ON.
● Should not carry the mobile phone in the breast pocket.
● Should use the ear opposite the implantable medical device to minimize the potential
for interference.
● Should turn OFF the mobile phone immediately if you have any reason to suspect that
interference is taking place.

Using Your Phone Near Other Electronic Devices

Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from radio frequency (RF) signals. However, RF
signals from wireless phones may affect inadequately shielded electronic equipment.
RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic operating
systems or entertainment systems in motor vehicles. Check with the manufacturer or their
representative to determine if these systems are adequately shielded from external RF signals.
Also check with the manufacturer regarding any equipment that has been added to your
vehicle.
Consult the manufacturer of any personal medical devices, such as pacemakers and hearing
aids, to determine if they are adequately shielded from external RF signals.
Note: Always turn off the phone in healthcare facilities, and request permission before using
the phone near medical equipment.

Turning Off Your Phone Before Flying

Turn off your phone before boarding any aircraft. To prevent possible interference with
aircraft systems, the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) regulations require you to
have permission from a crew member to use your phone while the plane is on the ground. To
prevent any risk of interference, FCC regulations prohibit using your phone while the plane is
in the air.
