Safety and General Use While Driving
Check the laws and regulations on the use of phones in the area where
you drive. Always obey them.
When using your phone while driving, please:
• give full attention to driving and to the road.
• use hands-free operation, if available.
• pull off the road and park before making or answering a call if driving
conditions so require.
Operational Warnings
For Vehicles With an Air Bag
Do not place a portable phone in the area over an air bag or in the air bag
deployment area. Air bags inflate with great force. If a portable phone is
placed in the air bag deployment area and the air bag inflates, the phone
may be propelled with great force and cause serious injury to occupants
of the vehicle.
Potentially Explosive Atmospheres
Turn off your phone prior to entering any area with a potentially explosive
atmosphere, unless the phone is a model specifically identified as being
“Intrinsically Safe.” Do not remove, install, or charge batteries in such
areas. Sparks in a potentially explosive atmosphere can cause an
explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death.
Note: The areas with potentially explosive atmospheres referred to above
include fueling areas such as below decks on boats, fuel or chemical
transfer or storage facilities, areas where the air contains chemicals or
particles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders, and any other area
where you would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle engine.
Areas with potentially explosive atmospheres are often but not always
posted.
