Safety Precautions
G
Warning
Some jurisdictions prohibit the driver from
using a cellular telephone while driving.
Whether or not prohibited by law, for safety
reasons, the driver should not use the cellular
telephone while the vehicle is in motion. Stop
the vehicle in a safe location before placing or
answering a call.
If you nonetheless choose to use the mobile
phone while driving, please use the handsfree
feature and be sure to pay attention to the
traffic situation at all times. Use the mobile
phone only when road, weather and traffic
conditions permit. Otherwise, you may not be
able to observe traffic conditions and could
endanger yourself and others.
Bear in mind that at a speed of just 30 mph
(approximately 50 km/h), your vehicle is
covering a distance of 44 feet (approximately
14 m) every second.
G
Warning
You and others may damage your health due
to excessive electromagnetic radiation. By
using an external antenna, the possible health
risks of electromagnetic fields, which are
under discussion among the scientific
community, should be largely prevented.
