Driving safely

Never use handheld phones while driving. It is an oence, that while driving, to hold a phone or cradle it in

your neck at any point, during the setup, making or taking of a phone call, text message or any other data

related mobile communication. Use of fully installed car kits are still permitted, as are the use of alternate

handsfree accessories.

In the interest of safety, we would recommend the use of a cradle while using any form of handsfree accessory.

While driving, we recommend that you use voicemail wherever possible, and that you listen to your messages

when you are not in the car. If you must make a handsfree call when driving, keep it brief.

Do not place objects, including both installed or portable wireless equipment, in the area over the airbag or

in the airbag deployment area. An airbag inates with great force. If the airbag inates, serious injury could

result.

Electronic devices

Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF energy.

However, certain electronic equipment may not be shielded against the RF signals from your device.

Pacemakers

The Health Industry Manufacturers’ Association recommends that a minimum separation of six (6”) inches

be maintained between a 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.

If you have a pacemaker:

• AlwayskeepyourASUSPhonemorethansixinches(15cm)fromyourpacemakerwhenturnedon.

• DonotcarryyourASUSPhoneinyourbreastpocket.

• Usetheearoppositethepacemakertominimizethepotentialforinterference.

• Ifyouhaveanyreasontosuspectthatinterferenceistakingplace,switchoyourASUSPhone

immediately.

161

Hearing aids

Some digital phones may interfere with some hearing aids. In the event of such interference, call ASUS

Customer Service to discuss alternatives.

Other medical devices

If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of your device to determine if it

is adequately shielded from external RF energy. Your physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this

information.

Turn your ASUS Phone o in healthcare facilities when any regulations posted in these areas instruct you to do

so.

Hospitals or healthcare facilities may be using equipment that could be sensitive to external RF energy.

Vehicles

RF signals may aect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic systems in motor vehicles.

Check with the manufacturer or its representative regarding your vehicle. You should also consult the

manufacturer of any equipment added to your vehicle.

Posted facilities

Turn your ASUS Phone o where posted notices so require.

Magnetic media

Magnetic elds generated by mobile devices may damage data on magnetic storage media, such as credit

cards, computer discs or tapes. Do not place your ASUS Phone next to such media.

You should never expose your ASUS Phone to strong magnetic elds as this may cause temporary

malfunction.

162

Other Safety Guidelines

Aircraft

Regulations prohibit using your mobile device while onboard an aircraft. Switch o your ASUS Phone before

boarding an aircraft or turn o the wireless connection.

Blasting areas

To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your ASUS Phone o when in a ‘blasting area’ or in areas

posted: “Turn o two-way radio.” Obey all signs and instructions.

Potentially explosive environments

Turn your ASUS Phone o when in any area with a potentially explosive environment and obey all signs and

instructions.

Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or re resulting in bodily injury or even death.

Areas with a potentially explosive environment are often, but not always, clearly marked. They include fuelling

areas such as gas stations, below decks on boats, fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities, vehicles using

liquied 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 o your

vehicle’s engine.

Choking

Keep your ASUS Phone away from children as the SIM card and other small parts present a choking hazard.

Caution

Your ASUS Phone is a high quality piece of equipment. Before operating, read all instructions and cautionary

markings on the (1) AC Adapter.

• DonotusetheASUSPhoneinanextremeenvironmentwherehightemperatureorhighhumidityexists.

The ASUS Phone performs optimally in an ambient temperature between -10 °C (14 °F) and 35 °C (95 °F).

• Donotshort-circuitthebatteryterminalswithmetalitems.

Operator access with a tool

If a TOOL is necessary to gain access to an OPERATOR ACCESS AREA, either all other compartments within

that area containing a hazard shall be inaccessible to the OPERATOR by the use of the same TOOL, or such

compartments shall be marked to discourage OPERATOR access.
