Road safety comes first

Don’t use a phone while driving. Park the vehicle first.

Switch off in hospitals

Switch off your phone when you are in a hospital or when you are near medical equipment. Follow any regulations or rules that are in force.

Switch off on aircraft

Switch off when refueling

Do not use the phone at a refueling point or near fuel or chemicals of any kind.

Switch off near blasting

Do not use the phone where blasting is in progress. Observe restrictions and follow any regulations or rules that are in force.

Interference
