5.1 Transport safety
NEVER use a hand-held radio unit while operating a vehicle. Park the vehicle before answering a call or before placing a call
yourself. To avoid having the radio unit fly about in the event of a collision or a sudden braking manoeuvre, do not place the radio
unit on the front passenger's seat or in a place where it can become dislodged. Always remember the following: Transport safety takes
priority!

5.2 Operating environment

The particular regulations that apply to an area must be observed at all times. The radio unit must always be turned off if the use of
radio units is prohibited or if it causes interference which may lead to hazardous situations. The device must always be held in a normal
operating position. Since parts of the radio unit are magnetic, metal parts may be attracted to it.
To avoid metal parts being attracted to the radio unit, you should always secure the device in a specially-designed holder. Do not
allow credit cards or other magnetic data carriers to come into close proximity to the radio unit, since the data contained on these items
could be deleted.

5.3 Electronic devices

Today, most electronic devices are shielded from so-called RF (radio frequency) signals. It can happen, however, that some electronic
devices are not shielded from the RF signals of your radio unit.
5.3.1 Pacemakers
The following applies for persons with pacemakers:
- The general rule is to maintain a minimum interval of 20 cm between the radio unit and the pacemaker when the radio unit is
turned on.
- To keep the risk of possible disturbances as low as possible, we recommend that you use the ear furthest from the pacemaker when
operating the unit.
- If you have cause to suspect that your pacemaker has been disturbed, turn your radio unit off at once.
5.3.2 Hearing aids
It is especially important that persons who use hearing aids do not hold the radio unit to the ear with the hearing aid. In the event of
possible disturbances with some types of hearing aids, please contact your local service partner.
5.3.3 Other medical devices
As is the case with other electronic devices as well, your radio unit may interfere with medical devices that are not adequately
shielded. If you should need information regarding sufficient shielding of a medical device against external RF signals, please contact
the respective physician or the manufacturer of the medical device. To generally avoid malfunctions, you should turn your radio unit off
in all health care facilities if so requested by signs, placards or regulations.
Please note:
Devices which react sensitively to external RF signals are often used in hospitals and other health care facilities.
5.3.4 Respectively designated locations
You should turn your radio unit off in all places where such requests are fitting and appropriate.
5.4 Vehicles
5.4.1 Automobiles
Under certain circumstances, RF signals can have a negative impact on the function of improperly installed or insufficiently shielded
electronic systems within your automobile (e.g. electronically controlled fuel injection, electronic anti-lock braking systems, electronic
speed regulator, air bag systems). You can obtain information about your vehicle from your vehicle manufacturer or his representative.
To prevent disturbances, only skilled personnel should install the radio unit in the vehicle. Faulty installation or maintenance can lead
to dangerous consequences. Please keep in mind that these mistakes may result in the forfeiture of the valid warranty on your unit. We
recommend regular inspection of all installed components of the radio unit equipment in your vehicle. In vehicles with airbags, these
