Wireless Phone Safety Tips Your Motorola M800 Bag Phone gives you the powerful ability to communicate almost anywhere, anytime, wherever wireless phone service is available and safety conditions allow. But an important responsibility accompanies the benefits of wireless phones, one that every user must uphold while using them. If you find it necessary to use your M800 Bag Phone while behind the wheel of a car, practice good common sense and remember the following tips: 1. Get to know your Motorola M800 Bag Phone and its features such as speed dial and redial. If available, these features help you to place your call without taking your attention off the road. 2. 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, ice, and even heavy traffic can be hazardous. 3. If you receive an incoming call at an inconvenient time do not take notes or look up phone numbers while driving. Jotting down a "to do" list or going through your address book takes attention away from your primary responsibility - driving safely. 4. Dial sensibly and assess the traffic; if possible, place calls when you are not moving or before pulling into traffic. Try to plan calls when your car will be stationary. If you need to make a call while moving, dial only a few numbers, check the road and your mirrors, then continue. 5. Do not engage in stressful or emotional conversations that may distract your attention. Make people you are talking with aware you are driving and suspend conversations which have the potential to divert your attention away from the road. 6. Use your M800 Bag Phone to call for help. Dial the appropriate emergency number in the case of fire, traffic accident or medical emergency.* 7. Use your M800 Bag Phone to help others in emergencies. If you see an auto accident, crime in progress or other serious emergency where lives are in danger, call the emergency number, as you would want others to do for you.* 8. Call assistance services, like towing services, or non-emergency assistance services. If you see a broken-down vehicle posing no serious hazard, a broken traffic signal, a minor traffic accident where no one appears injured, or a vehicle you know to be stolen, call assistance services that provide assistance in non-emergency events. * Wherever wireless phone service is available.

conditions
. Rain, sleet, snow, ice, and even heavy traffic can be
hazardous.
3.
If you receive an incoming call at an inconvenient time do not take
notes or look up phone numbers while driving
. Jotting down a “to do”
list or going through your address book takes attention away from your
primary responsibility - driving safely.
