Your mobile device lets you communicate by voice
and data—almost anywhere, anytime, wherever
wireless service is available and safe conditions
allow. When driving a car, driving is your first
responsibility. If you choose to use your mobile
device while driving, remember the following tips:
•
Get to know your Motorola mobile device
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.
•
When available, use a
hands-free device.

layer of convenience to your
mobile device with one of
the many Motorola Original hands-free
accessories available today.
•
