4 Safety Information

Airplanes

FCC and Airline Regulations prohibit using your phone while in the air. Turn your phone OFF before boarding an airplane.

Check and comply with the policy of your airline regarding the use of your phone while the airplane is on the ground.

Blasting areas

To avoid interfering with blasting op- erations, turn your phone OFF when in a “blasting area” or in areas post- ed: “Turn off two-way radio.” Obey all signs and instructions.

Potentially explosive atmospheres

Turn your phone OFF when in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere and obey all signs and instructions. Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death.

Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often but not always clearly marked. They include: fueling areas such as gasoline stations; be- low deck on boats; fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities; vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas (such as propane or butane); areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust or metal powders; and any other area where

you would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle engine.

Emergency Calls

Your wireless phone can be used to make emergency calls. Check to en- sure you have a strong enough sig- nal and that the battery has enough available charge.

You can make an emergency call from the main display screen.

You can either enter the local emer- gency number such as 911 and then press the ,(talk) key, or you can press and hold the red : key as a shortcut. In order for the red : key to function, it first must be acti- vated as a speed dialing key (p. 70).
