Keep your headset away from medical devices, including pacemakers and hearing aids, as they might
malfunction causing serious harm or death to you or others.
Do not put your headset in contact with liquids as this might cause a short circuit, a fire, or an electric
shock.
Driving a vehicle requires your full attention to road conditions, weather, and vehicular traffic. It is
important to set up your BlackBerry Universal Headset prior to driving. Using this hands-free accessory
may cause you to be distracted and may put you, your passengers, and occupants of other vehicles at risk
of suffering bodily injury, death and/or loss of property. You should only use the hands-free accessory
where permitted by law and when you will not be distracted from the proper operation of your motor
vehicle.
Do not use your headset in the presence of gas fumes as it might present a risk of fire or explosion.
Do not use or store your headset in temperatures that exceed 113° F (45°C) as the headset might become
hot.
Do not dispose of your headset device in a fire as this might cause an explosion resulting in serious injury,
death, or property loss.
Turn off your headset in aircrafts. Using your headset on an aircraft might affect aircraft instrumentation,
communication, and performance; might disrupt the network; might otherwise be dangerous to the
operation of the aircraft, its crew, and its passengers; and might be illegal.
