Safety Tips
Consider device compatibility
If you have a pacemaker or hearing aid, check
with your doctor to make sure it is safe for you to
use a cell phone. In some cases, cellular radio
frequencies can disrupt the performance of other
electronic equipment. If you have questions about
the interaction between your phone and any other
piece of electronic equipment, ask the equipment
manufacturer.
Drive safely
When you are driving, T-Mobile encourages you to
use your phone in a safe and sensible manner. Here
are a few tips:
• Assess road conditions before answering your
phone. Your safety is more important than any call.
• Prepare your hands-free headset, if you have one,
or turn on your speakerphone, before you
start moving.
• Keep your phone close. If it rings and you discover
it’s in the back seat, do NOT crawl over the seat to
answer it while driving.
• Pre-program frequently used numbers into your
phone for easy, one-touch dialing.
• Remember that laws prohibiting or restricting the
use of a cell phone while driving may apply in your
area.

Safeguarding Handsets
T-Mobile encourages customers to take appropriate
measures to secure their handsets and invites them
to take advantage of the features available on this
handset to help secure it from theft and/or other
unauthorized access and use. This handset has a
locking function (e.g., user-defined codes or patterns)
that can serve as a first line of defense against

capabilities are also available to T-Mobile customers
that have elected to subscribe to the Mobile Security
