devices, such as pacemakers and hearing aids, to
determine if they are adequately shielded from external
RF signals.

Note: Always turn off the phone in health
care facilities and request permission before
using the phone near medical equipment.

Turning Off Your Phone Before Flying
Turn off your phone before boarding any aircraft. To
prevent possible interference with aircraft systems, the
U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) regulations
require you to have permission from a crew member
to use your phone while the plane is on the ground. To
prevent any risk of interference, FCC regulations prohibit
using your phone while the plane is in the air.
Turning Off Your Phone in Dangerous Areas
To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your
phone off when in a blasting area or in other areas with
signs indicating two-way radios should be turned off.
Construction crews often use remote-control RF devices
to set off explosives.
Turn your phone off when you’re in any area that has a
potentially explosive atmosphere. Although it’s rare, your
phone and accessories could generate sparks. Sparks
can cause an explosion or fire, resulting in bodily injury or

even death. These areas 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.

+ Any other area where you would normally be advised

to turn off your vehicle’s engine.

Note: Never transport or store flammable gas,
flammable liquid, or explosives in the compartment of
your vehicle that contains your phone or accessories.

Restricting Children’s Access to Your Phone
Your phone is not a toy. Do not allow children to play with
it as they could hurt themselves and others, damage the
phone or make calls that use your airtime balance.
Using Your Phone With a Hearing Aid Device
A number of phones offered by your service provider
have been tested for hearing aid device compatibility.
When some wireless phones are used with certain
hearing devices (including hearing aids and cochlear
implants), users may detect a noise which can interfere
with the effectiveness of the hearing device.
