Potentially explosive environments

Switch off your phone 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.
Users are advised to switch off the phone while at a

refuelling point (service station). Users are reminded of

the need to observe restrictions on the use of radio

equipment in fuel depots (fuel storage and distribution

areas), chemical plants, or where blasting operations

are in progress.
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often

but not always clearly marked. They include the areas

below decks on boats, 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

This phone, like any wireless phone, operates using

radio signals, wireless, and landline networks as well as

user-programmed functions, which cannot guarantee

connection in all conditions. Therefore, you should

never rely solely on any wireless phone for essential

communications like medical emergencies.
To make or receive calls, the phone must be switched

on and in a service area with adequate signal strength.

Emergency calls may not be possible on all wireless

phone networks or when certain network services and/

or phone features are in use. Check with local service

providers.
To make an emergency call:
1. Switch on the phone.

2. Key in the emergency number for your present

location. Emergency numbers vary by location.

3. Press [

].
