When driving, your main responsibility is to control the vehicle safely. If the law does not allow mobile phone use when driving, do not use the mobile device.
For your and others' safety use your common sense and remember the following advice:
Get to know the device and its operating functions, like speed dialling and recall system. These functions allow the time necessary to make and receive
calls to be reduced.
Put the device in a place where it is easy to reach. Make sure that you can access the wireless device without taking your eyes off the road. If you receive
a telephone call at an inconvenient time, let voice-mail answer it.
Stop phone calls when there is heavy traffic or when there are adverse climate conditions. Rain, sleet, snow, ice and heavy traffic can be very dangerous.
Do not jot down or look for telephone numbers. Jotting down a task or looking at your calendar may distract you from your main responsibility, which is
to drive safely.
Dial carefully and assess the state of the traffic. Make phone calls when you are not moving or before hitting traffic. Try to schedule phone calls when the
car is parked.
Do not have very stressful or emotional phone calls that may distract you. Tell the person that you are speaking to that you are driving and end any
conversations that may take away your attention from the road.
Correct use and maintenance of the mobile device.
Keep the device dry.
Humidity and liquids may damage the parts or the electronic circuits of the device.
Do not turn on the device if it is wet. If it is already turned on, turn it off and take the battery out immediately (if you cannot turn it off or take the battery
out, just leave it as it is). After this, dry the device with a towel and take it to the service centre.
Liquids will change the colour of the label which indicates the damage caused by the water inside the device. The damage caused by the water in the
device may cancel the manufacturer's warranty.
Place the device only on flat surfaces.
If it drops, the device may get damaged.
