Turn Off Your Device Before Flying
AIRCRAFT
FCC regulations prohibit using the transmitting and phone functions of
your device while in the air. In addition, most airline regulations prohibit
the on-board use of portable PCs (and all other portable electronic devices
that could potentially emit stray RF energy), particularly during take-offs
and landings, to prevent any possible interference with the reception of
signals by airborne electronic navigational devices.
Turn your device OFF before boarding an aircraft. Always request and obtain
prior consent and approval of an authorized airline representative before
using your device aboard an aircraft. Always follow the instructions of the
airline representative whenever using your device aboard an aircraft, to
prevent any possible interference with airborne electronic equipment.
Turn Off Your Device in Dangerous Areas
BLASTING AREAS
To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your device OFF when in
a “blasting area” or in areas posted “Turn off two-way radio.” Obey all signs
and instructions.
POTENTIALLY EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERES
Turn your device OFF 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.
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; vehicles using
liquefied petroleum gas (such as propane or butane); areas where the
air contains chemicals or articles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders;
and any other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your
vehicle’s engine.
General Safety and Other Precautions
Your pocket PC is a high quality piece of equipment. Before operating, read
all instructions and cautionary markings on the product, battery and AC
phone charger.
Failure to follow the directions below could result in serious bodily injury
and/or property damage due to battery liquid leakage, fire or rupture.
DO NOT use or store this equipment in a place where it will be exposed
to high temperatures, such as near an open flame or heat-emitting
equipment.
