vehicle. You should also consult the manufacturer of any equipment that has been added to your
vehicle.
An air bag inflates with great force. DO NOT place objects, including either installed or portable
wireless equipment, in the area over the air bag or in the air bag deployment area. If in-vehicle
wireless equipment is improperly installed and the air bag inflates, serious injury could result.
Position your device within easy reach. Be able to access your device without removing your eyes
from the road.
Note: Connection to an alert device that will cause a vehicle horn to sound or lights to flash, on
receipt of a call on public roads, is not permitted.
Safety on the Road
Do not take notes or use the device while driving. Jotting down a “to do” list or flipping through your
address book takes attention away from your primary responsibility, driving safely.
When driving a car, driving is your first responsibility - Give full attention to driving. Check the laws
and regulations on the use of wireless devices in the areas where you drive. Always obey them.
