WARNING
If you operate mobile communication equip-
ment while driving, you will be distracted from
traffic conditions. You could also lose control
of the vehicle. There is a risk of an accident.
Only operate this equipment when the vehicle
is stationary.
If you make a call on your mobile phone while
driving, always use hands-free mode. Only
use the mobile phone when road, weather
and traffic conditions permit. Some jurisdic-
tions prohibit the driver from using a mobile
phone while driving a vehicle.
Bear in mind that at a speed of only 30 mph
(approximately 50 km/h), the vehicle covers
a distance of 44 feet (approximately 14 m)
per second.
Excessive levels of electromagnetic radiation
may cause damage to your health and the
health of others.
There is scientific discussion surrounding the
possible health risks posed by electromag-
netic fields. You can reduce this risk by using
an exterior antenna.
Therefore, only use mobile communication
equipment if it is connected to the exterior
antenna of the vehicle. Introduction
