Warning!
A driver’s attention to the road must always
be his/her primary focus when driving. For
your safety and the safety of others, we
recommend that you pull over to a safe
location and stop before placing or taking
a telephone call. If you choose to use the
telephone while driving, please use the
hands-free device and only use the tele-
phone when weather, road and traffic con-
ditions permit.
Some jurisdictions prohibit the driver from
using a mobile phone while driving a vehi-
cle.
Bear in mind that at a speed of just 30 mph
(approximately 50 km/h), your vehicle is
covering a distance of 44 feet (approxi-
mately 14 m) every second.
Never operate radio transmitters equipped
with a built-in or attached antenna (i.e.
without being connected to an external
antenna) from inside the vehicle while the
engine is running. Doing so could lead to a
malfunction of the vehicle’s electronic sys-
tem, possibly resulting in an accident and/
or personal injury.
