Using Your Device While Driving
Talking on your device while driving (or operating the device without a
hands-free device) is prohibited in some jurisdictions. Laws vary as to
specific restrictions. Remember that safety always comes first.
Following Safety Guidelines
To operate your device safely and efficiently, always follow any special
regulations in a given area. Turn your device off in areas where use is
forbidden or when it may cause interference or danger.
Using Your Device 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 device in healthcare facilities, and request
permission before using the device near medical equipment.
Turning Off Your Device Before Flying
Turn off your device 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 device while the plane is on the ground. To prevent any risk of
interference, FCC regulations prohibit using your device while the plane is
in the air.
Turning Off Your Device in Dangerous Areas
To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your device off when in a
blasting area or in other areas with signs indicating two-way radios should
be turned off. Construction crews often use remote-control RF devices to
set off explosives.
Turn your device off when you're in any area that has a potentially explosive
atmosphere. Although it's rare, your device and accessories could generate
sparks. Sparks can cause an explosion or fire, resulting in bodily injury or
even death. These areas are often, but not always, clearly marked. They
include:
Fueling areas such as gas stations.
Below deck on boats.
Fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities.
Areas where the air contains chemicals or particles such as grain,
dust, or metal powders.
Any other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your
vehicle's engine.
Note:
Never transport or store flammable gas, flammable liquids, or
explosives in the compartment of your vehicle that contains your
device or accessories.
