Electronic Devices
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF energy. However, RF
energy from cellular telephones may affect some electronic equipment.
RF energy may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded
electronic operating and entertainment systems in motor vehicles. Check
with the manufacturer or its representative to determine if these systems are
adequately shielded from external RF energy. You should also check with the
manufacturer of any equipment that has been added to your vehicle.
Medical Devices
Consult the manufacturer of any personal medical devices (such as
pacemakers, hearing aids, etc.) 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 health care facilities when regulations posted in the
areas instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may be using
equipment that could be sensitive to external RF energy.
Aircraft
Turn your phone OFF before boarding any aircraft.
Use it on the ground only with crew permission.
Do not use in the air.
To prevent possible interference with aircraft systems, 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
interference with aircraft communication systems, FCC regulations prohibit
using your phone while the plane is in the air.
Children
Do not allow children to play with your phone. It is not a toy. Children could
hurt themselves or others (by poking themselves or others in the eye with the
antenna, for example). Children also could damage the phone or make calls
that increase your telephone bill.
Blasting Areas
To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your unit OFF when in a
"blasting area" or in areas posted: "Turn off two-way radio." Construction
crews often use remote control RF devices to set off explosives.
