Electronic device
Do not use your device if using the device is prohibited. Do not use the device if doing so causes
danger or interference with other electronic devices.
Interference with medical equipment
•
Follow rules and regulations set forth by hospitals and health care facilities. Do not use your
device where prohibited.
•
Some wireless devices may affect the performance of hearing aids or pacemakers. Consult your
service provider for more information.
•
Pacemaker manufacturers recommend that a minimum distance of 15 cm be maintained
between a device and a pacemaker to prevent potential interference with the pacemaker. If
using a pacemaker, hold the device on the side opposite the pacemaker and do not carry the
device in your front pocket.
Protecting your hearing when using a headset
•
To prevent possible hearing damage, do not listen at high volume levels for long
periods.
•
Using a headset at high volumes may damage your hearing. To reduce this risk, lower the
headset volume to a safe and comfortable level.
•
Exposure to high volumes while driving may cause distraction and increase your risk of an
accident.
Areas with flammables and explosives

Do not use the device where flammables or explosives are stored (in a gas station, oil depot, or
chemical plant, for example). Using your device in these environments increases the risk of
explosion or fire. In addition, follow the instructions indicated in text or symbols.
