Drive safely
Several studies have shown that cell phone usage while driving creates a
distraction to the driver which may increase the likelihood of an accident.
This distraction potential is not eliminated by the use of a hands-free phone.
Hands-free phones have not been shown to be safer than hand-held phones
with respect to driver distraction. When using the phone while driving,
keep conversations short and resist any temptation to make notes or read
documents. Before answering calls consider your circumstances. Pull off the
road and park before making or answering calls when driving conditions
require (e.g. bad weather, high traffic density, presence of children in the car,
difficult junctions or maneuvers.)
Remember, driving comes first, not the call!
Abide by local laws.
Please check if the local laws where you live restrict the use of mobile phones
while driving. It is the owner's responsibility to use this product in compliance
with the laws of the place where you live.

vehicle power charger into a power socket. (See fig. 1. 1 )
3. The red light will turn on when charging begins. After approximately two
hours, the red light will go out indicating that the Jabra SP500 is fully
charged.
4. Unplug the AC adapter or the vehicle power charger from the
speakerphone.
