If you make a call on your mobile phone while
driving, always use hands-free mode. Only
use the mobile phone when road, weather

Excessive levels of electromagnetic radiation
may cause damage to your health and the
health of others.
There is scientific discussion surrounding the
possible health risks posed by
electromagnetic fields. You can reduce this
risk by using an exterior antenna. Therefore, only use mobile communication
equipment if it is connected to the exterior
antenna of the vehicle. Introduction
