Safety is the most important call you will ever make.

A Guide to Safe and Responsible Wireless Phone Use

Tens of millions of people in the U.S. today take advantage of the unique combination of convenience, safety and value delivered by the wireless telephone. Quite simply, the wireless phone gives people the powerful ability to communicate by voice--almost anywhere, anytime--with the boss, with a client, with the kids, with emergency personnel or even with the police. Each year, Americans make billions of calls from their wireless phones, and the numbers are rapidly growing.

But an important responsibility accompanies those benefits, one that every wireless phone user must uphold. When driving a car, driving is your first responsibility. A wireless phone can be an invaluable tool, but good judgment must be exercised at all times while driving a motor vehicle--whether on the phone or not.

The basic lessons are ones we all learned as teenagers. Driving requires alertness, caution and courtesy. It requires a heavy dose of basic common sense---keep your head up, keep your eyes on the road, check your mirrors frequently and watch out for other drivers. It requires obeying all traffic signs and signals and staying within the speed limit. It means using seatbelts and requiring other passengers to do the same.

But with wireless phone use, driving safely means a little more. This brochure is a call to wireless phone users everywhere to make safety their first priority when behind the wheel of a car. Wireless telecommunications is keeping us in touch, simplifying our lives, protecting us in emergencies and providing opportunities to help others in need.

When it comes to the use of wireless phones, safety is your most important call.

Wireless Phone "Safety Tips"

Below are safety tips to follow while driving and using a wireless phone which should be easy to remember.

1Get to know your wireless phone and its features such as speed dial and redial. Carefully read your instruction manual and learn to take advantage of valuable features most phones offer, including automatic redial and memory. Also, work to memorize the phone keypad so you can use the speed dial function without taking your attention off the road.

2When available, use a hands free device. A number of hands free wireless phone accessories are readily available today. Whether you choose an installed mounted device for your wireless phone or a speaker phone accessory, take advantage of these devices if available to you.

3Position your wireless phone within easy reach. Make sure you place your wireless phone within easy reach and where you can grab it without removing your eyes from the road. If you get an incoming call at an inconvenient time, if possible, let your voice mail answer it for you.

2260 specifications

The Nokia 2260 is a resilient and practical mobile phone that embodies the essence of classic mobile design, prioritizing functionality and user convenience over complex modern features. Launched during a period when mobile devices were primarily used for texting and calling, this model is an excellent example of Nokia’s commitment to producing reliable communication tools.

One of the standout features of the Nokia 2260 is its robust build quality. Constructed to withstand everyday wear and tear, the phone’s durable casing ensures it can handle the rigors of daily use, making it ideal for individuals who value reliability. The compact design allows for easy portability, fitting comfortably in a pocket or bag.

The user interface is straightforward, featuring a well-organized keypad with tactile buttons, which provides users with a satisfying typing experience for text messages and dialing.

The phone operates on a long-lasting battery, which is one of its most appreciated characteristics. Users can expect days of usage on a single charge, which is a significant advantage for those who often find themselves away from power sources.

This limitation is intentional, catering to users seeking a no-frills device.
