Check the laws and regulations on the use of wireless telephones in
the areas where you drive. Always obey them. Also, if using your
phone while driving, please:

• Give full attention to driving – driving safely is your first

responsibility.

• Use handsfree operation, if available.

• Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call if

driving conditions so require.

In addition, Ericsson suggests the following safe driving tips if you
are using your phone while driving:

• Get to know your wireless phone and its features such as speed

dial and redial.

• Position your wireless phone within easy reach.

• Suspend conversations during hazardous

driving conditions or situations.

• Do not take notes or look up phone

numbers while driving.

• Dial sensibly and assess the traffic; if

possible, place calls when you are not
moving or before pulling into traffic.

• Do not engage in stressful or emotional conversations that may

be distracting.

• Use your wireless phone to call for help.

• Use your wireless phone to help others in emergencies.

• Call roadside assistance or a special wireless non-emergency

assistance number when necessary.

The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that a
minimum separation of six (6”) inches be maintained between a
handheld wireless phone and a pacemaker to avoid potential
interference with the pacemaker. These recommendations are
consistent with the independent research by and recommendations
of Wireless Technology Research.

Persons with pacemakers:

• Should ALWAYS keep the phone more than six inches from

their pacemaker when the phone is turned ON.

• Should not carry the phone in a breast pocket.

• Should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the

potential for interference.

• If you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking

place, turn your phone OFF immediately.

Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some hearing aids.
In the event of such interference, you may want to consult your service
provider (or call the customer service line to discuss alternatives).
