An airbag inflates with great force. DO NOT place objects, including both
installed or portable wireless equipment, in the area over the airbag
or in the air bag deployment area. If in-vehicle wireless equipment is
improperly installed and the air bag inflates, serious injury could result.
WARNING: Failure to follow these instructions may lead to serious
personal injury and possible property damage.

Electronic devices

Your wireless handheld portable telephone is a low power radio
transmitter and receiver. When it is ON, it receives and also sends out radio
frequency (RF) signals. Most modern electronic equipment is shielded
from RF energy. However, certain electronic equipment may not be
shielded against the RF signals from your wireless phone. Therefore, use of
your phone must be restricted in certain situations.
Pacemakers
The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that a
minimum separation of six (6") inches be maintained between a handheld
wireless phone and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the
pacemaker. These recommendations are consistent with the independent
research by and recommendations of Wireless Technology Research.
Persons with pacemakers:
• ALWAYS keep the phone more than six inches from your pacemaker
when the phone is turned on.
• Do not carry the phone in a breast pocket.
• Use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for
interference.
• If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place, turn
your phone OFF immediately.

Hearing aids

Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some hearing aids. In the
event of such interference, you may want to consult your service provider
(or call the customer service line to discuss alternatives).

Other medical devices

If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of
your device to determine if they are adequately shielded from external RF
energy.
Your physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this information. Turn
your phone OFF in healthcare facilities when any regulations posted in
these areas instruct you to do so. Hospitals or healthcare facilities may be
using equipment that could be sensitive to external RF energy.
Vehicles
RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded
electronic systems in motor vehicles. Check with the manufacturer or
its representative regarding your vehicle. You should also consult the
manufacturer of any equipment that has been added to your vehicle.
