Environmental Restrictions

Do not use this product in gas stations, fuel depots, chemical plants or where blasting operations are in progress, or in potentially explosive atmospheres such as fuelling areas, fuel storehouses, below deck on boats, chemical plants, fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities, and areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders. Please be aware that sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death.

Explosive Atmospheres

When in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere or where flammable materials exist, the product should be turned off and the user should obey all signs and instructions. Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death. Users are advised not to use the equipment at refueling points such as service or gas stations, and are reminded of the need to observe restrictions on the use of radio equipment in fuel depots, chemical plants, or where blasting operations are in progress.

Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often, but not always, clearly marked. These include fueling areas, below deck on boats, fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities, and areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders.

Road Safety

Full attention must be given to driving at all times in order to reduce the risk of an accident. Using a phone while driving (even with a hands-free device) causes distraction and can lead to an accident. You must comply with local laws and regulations restricting the use of wireless devices while driving.

Safety Precautions for RF Exposure

Avoid using your phone near metal structures (for example, the steel frame of a building).

Avoid using your phone near strong electromagnetic sources, such as microwave ovens, sound speakers, TV and radio.

Use only original manufacturer-approved accessories, or accessories that do not contain any metal.
