When switched on, your mobile phone emits
electromagnetic waves that can interfere with
the vehicle’s electronic systems such as ABS
anti-lock brakes or airbags. To ensure that there
is no problem:
- do not place your mobile phone on top of the
dashboard or within an airbag deployment area,
- check with your car dealer or the car manu-
facturer to make sure that the car’s electronic
devices are shielded from mobile phone RF
energy.
• CONDITIONS OF USE:
You are advised to switch off the mobile phone
from time to time to optimize its performance.
Remember to abide by local authority rules of
mobile phone use on aircrafts.
Operational Warnings: Obey all posted signs
when using mobile devices in public areas.
Follow Instructions to Avoid Interference Prob-
lems: Turn off your mobile device in any location
where posted notices instruct you to do so. In an
aircraft, turn off your mobile device whenever
instructed to do so by airline staff. If your mobile
device offers an airplane mode or similar feature,
consult airline staff about using it in flight.
Switch the mobile phone off when you are in
health care facilities, except in designated areas.
As with many other types of equipment now in
regular use, mobile phones can interfere with
other electrical or electronic devices, or equip-
ment using radio frequency.
Switch the mobile phone off when you are near
gas or flammable liquids. Strictly obey all signs
and instructions posted in a fuel depot, gas
station, or chemical plant, or in any potentially
explosive atmosphere.
When the mobile phone is switched on, it should
be kept at least 15 cm from any medical device
such as a pacemaker, a hearing aid or insulin
pump. In particular when using the mobile phone
you should hold it against the ear on the opposite
side to the device, if any.
Read and follow the directions from the manufac-
turer of your implantable medical device. If you
have any questions about using your mobile
device with your implantable medical device,
consult your healthcare provider.
