Avoid exposing your phone and accessories to rain or liquid spills. If your phone does get wet, immediately turn the power off and remove the battery. If it’s inoperable, return it to a dealer store or call Customer Support for service.

Note: For the best care of your phone, only authorized personnel should service your phone and accessories. Faulty service may void the warranty.

Maintaining Safe Use of and Access to Your Phone

Failure to follow the instructions outlined may lead to serious personal injury and possible property damage.

Using Your Phone While Driving

Talking on your phone while driving (or operating the phone without a hands-free device) is prohibited in some jurisdictions. Laws vary as to specific restrictions. Remember that safety always comes first.

When using your phone in the car:

Get to know your phone and its features, such as speed dial and re-dial.

When available, use a hands-free device.

Position your phone within easy reach.

Let the person you are speaking to know you are driving; if necessary, suspend the call in heavy traffic or hazardous weather conditions.

Do not take notes or look up phone numbers while driving.

Dial sensibly and assess the traffic; if possible, place calls when stationary or before pulling into traffic.

Do not engage in stressful or emotional conversations that may divert your attention from the road.

Dial 911 to report serious emergencies. It’s free from your wireless phone.

Use your phone to help others in emergencies.

Call roadside assistance or a special non-emergency wireless number when necessary.

Following Safety Guidelines

To operate your phone safely and efficiently, always follow any special regulations in a given area. Turn your phone off in areas where use is forbidden or when it may cause interference or danger.
