Safety notes
If the antenna is damaged, have it replaced
immediately.<
For your own safety
Special environmental conditions
A car phone makes life more convenient in
many ways, and can even save lives in an emer-
gency. While you should consult your portable
phone's separate Owner's Manual for a detailed
description of safety precautions and informa-
tion, we request that you direct your particular
attention to the following:
Always switch off your portable phone in
areas where blasting work is being con-
ducted with explosives. The phone signals
could potentially act as a high-frequency trans-
mitter and set off explosions.
Always switch off your portable phone in areas
where an increased explosion danger is
present. This category includes service stations
along with fuel and chemical storage depots,
etc., and all areas in which the air can contain
fuel, chemicals or metal particles. Under these
conditions, your portable phone could conceiv-
ably generate sparks that could lead to a fire or
explosion. Always observe all legal regulations
governing the use of portable phones in the
vicinity of service stations, chemical factories
and other areas where an explosion potential
exists. Never use your portable phone in air-
craft; do not use this portable phone in hospi-
tals, care centers or at other locations where
medical equipment may be in operation, such
as accident sites.
Adjustments
To avoid posing a danger to yourself and
other road users, never adjust the system
settings unless your vehicle is stationary.<
Using the phone in your vehicle
Using a portable phone to make and
receive calls while driving is already illegal
in many countries in the world. Always use your
hands-free system, or stop your vehicle in an
area where you will not pose a safety hazard to
other road users.<
Vehicles and portable phones
Do not use your portable phone from
within a garage, or near an open hood.
The air in these areas could contain fuel vapors,
and the portable phone might generate sparks
that could cause fires.
Your service provider can furnish you with more
detailed information on legal regulations gov-
erning the use of your phone.<
Medical equipment
This same precaution applies to open luggage
compartment lids on vehicles equipped for
operation using natural gas or hydrogen, and to
all vehicles with luggage compartment-
mounted batteries.<
Portable phones can generate interfer-
ence capable of preventing hearing aids
and cardiac pacemakers from operating cor-
rectly. If you or any occupant of the vehicle will
be using such equipment, consult a physician
or the manufacturer of the equipment to deter-
mine whether it is adequately shielded against
high-frequency energy.<
Antenna
When using the portable phone, ensure
that all persons in the area are at least
20
in/50 cm from the antenna. Do not use the
Batteries
portable phone when the antenna is damaged.
Contact between your skin and a damaged
antenna can result in minor burns.
Never attempt to dismantle your portable
phone or its battery. Use only approved
battery types – the wrong battery can destroy
