Safety is the most important call you will ever make.

A Guide to Safe and Responsible Wireless Phone Use

Tens of millions of people in the U.S. today take advantage of the unique

combination of convenience, safety and value delivered by the wireless telephone.

Quite simply, the wireless phone gives people the powerful ability to communicate

by voice--almost anywhere, anytime--with the boss, with a client, with the kids,

with emergency personnel or even with the police. Each year, Americans make

billions of calls from their wireless phones, and the numbers are rapidly growing.

But an important responsibility accompanies those benefits, one that every wireless

phone user must uphold. When driving a car, driving is your first responsibility. A

wireless phone can be an invaluable tool, but good judgment must be exercised at

all times while driving a motor vehicle--whether on the phone or not.

The basic lessons are ones we all learned as teenagers. Driving requires alertness,

caution and courtesy. It requires a heavy dose of basic common sense---keep your head

up, keep your eyes on the road, check your mirrors frequently and watch out for other

drivers. It requires obeying all traffic signs and signals and staying within the speed

limit. It means using seatbelts and requiring other passengers to do the same.

But with wireless phone use, driving safely means a little more. This brochure is a

call to wireless phone users everywhere to make safety their first priority when

behind the wheel of a car. Wireless telecommunications is keeping us in touch,

simplifying our lives, protecting us in emergencies and providing opportunities to

help others in need.

When it comes to the use of wireless phones, safety is your most important call.

Wireless Phone "Safety Tips"

Below are safety tips to follow while driving and using a wireless phone which

should be easy to remember.

1 Get to know your wireless phone and its features such as speed dial and redial.

Carefully read your instruction manual and learn to take advantage of valuable

features most phones offer, including automatic redial and memory. Also, work

to memorize the phone keypad so you can use the speed dial function without

taking your attention off the road.

2 When available, use a hands free device. A number of hands free wireless phone

accessories are readily available today. Whether you choose an installed mounted

device for your wireless phone or a speaker phone accessory, take advantage of

these devices if available to you.

3 Position your wireless phone within easy reach. Make sure you place your

wireless phone within easy reach and where you can grab it without removing

your eyes from the road. If you get an incoming call at an inconvenient time, if

possible, let your voice mail answer it for you.

4 Suspend conversations during hazardous driving conditions or situations. Let

the person you are speaking with know you are driving; if necessary, suspend the

call in heavy traffic or hazardous weather conditions. Rain, sleet, snow and ice

can be hazardous, but so is heavy traffic. As a driver, your first responsibility is

to pay attention to the road.
