Driving

Check the laws and regulations on the use of cellular products in the areas where you drive.
Some jurisdictions prohibit your using a cellular device while driving a vehicle. Even if your juris-
diction does not have such a law, we strongly suggest that, for safety reasons, the driver use
extreme caution when operating the cellular device while the vehicle is in motion. Always obey
the law.

Electronic Devices

Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF energy. However, RF energy from cellular
devices may affect inadequately shielded electronic equipment.
RF energy may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic operating and
entertainment systems in motor vehicles. Check with the manufacturer or its representative to
determine if these systems are adequately shielded from external RF energy. You should also
check with the manufacturer of any equipment that has been added to your vehicle.
Consult the manufacturer of any personal medical devices (such as pacemakers, hearing aids,
etc.) to determine if they are adequately shielded from external RF energy.
Turn your Phonecell

®

SX6P OFF in health care facilities when any regulations posted in the

areas instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may be using equipment that could
be sensitive to external RF energy.

Aircraft

Turn OFF your Phonecell

®

SX6P before boarding any aircraft.

• Use it on the ground only with crew permission.
• Do not use it in the air.
To prevent possible interference with aircraft systems, U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA)
regulations require you to have permission from a crew member to use your cellular phone (or
any other cellular product) while the plane is on the ground. To prevent interference with aircraft
systems, FCC regulations prohibit using your cellular device while the plane is in the air.

Children

Do not allow children to play with your Phonecell

®

SX6P to prevent damage to the unit.

Blasting Areas

Construction crews often use remote control RF devices to set off explosives. Therefore, to avoid
interfering with blasting operations, turn your Phonecell

®

SX6P OFF when in a "blasting area" or

in areas posted: "Turn off two-way radio."

Potentially Explosive Atmospheres

Turn your Phonecell

®

SX6P OFF when in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere. It is

rare, but your Phonecell

®

SX6P or its accessories could generate sparks. 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 gas stations; below deck on boats; fuel or chemical transfer or
storage facilities; 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.
Do not transport or store flammable gas, liquid or explosives in the area of your Phonecell

®

SX6P or accessories.
Vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas (such as propane or butane) must comply with the
National Fire Protection Standard (FPA-58). For a copy of this standard, contact the National Fire
Protection Association, One Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA 02269, Attn: Publications Sales
Division.
