Safety and use
We recommend that you read this chapter carefully before using
your mobile phone. The manufacturer disclaims any liability for
damage, which may result as a consequence of improper use or
use contrary to the instructions contained herein.
• TRAFFIC SAFETY:
Given that studies show that using a mobile phone while driving
a vehicle constitutes a real risk, even when the hands-free kit is
used (car kit, headset...), drivers are requested to refrain from
using their mobile phone when the vehicle is not parked. Check
the laws and regulations on the use of wireless mobile phones
and their accessories in the areas where you drive. Always obey
them. The use of these devices may be prohibited or restricted
in certain areas.
When driving, do not use your mobile phone and headphone
to listen to music or to the radio. Using a headphone can be
dangerous and forbidden in some areas.
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 manufacturer 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 Problems: 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 equipment using radio frequency.
