Precautions for Potentially Hazardous Environments

•Switch off your phone prior to entering any area with potentially hazardous environments including, but not limited to fuel/chemical transfer areas or storage facilities.

•Do not remove, install, or charge batteries in such areas. Sparks in potentially hazardous environments can cause explosions or fire, resulting in bodily injury or even death.

•To avoid possible interference with blasting operations, switch off your phone when you are near electrical blasting caps, in a blasting area, or in areas posted “Turn off electronic devices.” Obey all signs and instructions.

Precautions for Electronic Devices

Safety and General Use in Vehicles

•Safety airbags, brakes, speed control systems and fuel injection systems should not be affected by wireless transmissions. If you experience problems with the above-mentioned systems, please contact your automobile provider. Do not place your phone in the area over an airbag or in the airbag deployment area. Airbags inflate with great force. If a phone is placed in the airbag deployment area and the airbag inflates, the phone may be propelled with great force

and cause serious injury or death to occupants of the vehicle.

•Please turn off your mobile phone at a refueling point, and in the locations where the use of two-way radio is also prohibited.

Aircraft Safety

•Please turn off your mobile phone before take off or as instructed by the flight crew. In order to protect the airplane’s communication system from interference, do not use your mobile phone during your flight. Safety regulations require you to have permission from a crew member to use your phone while the plane is on the ground taxiing.
