Introduction
Safety Instructions
Emergency Call 112/911/999
There is no guarantee that the emergency call will
function in all situations!
For this reason you should not depend only on the
device for crucial communication (e.g., medical
emergencies).
You can only telephone with the device when it
is turned on and in an area with sufcient signal
strength.
Emergency calls can only be made with a SIM card
activated by the mobile phone service provider. In
some circumstances you cannot be connected in
all mobile phone networks.
It is possible that emergency calls can also not be
made when certain network services and/or tele-
phone functions are activated or deactivated.
Trafc Safety
Phoning while driving can distract from trafc and
cause accidents! The same is true for using other
functions of the telephone.
Only use the hand-free function of the device while
driving. The handset must only be used when the
engine is turned off. The hands-free equipment is
only active if the handset is in its cradle.
Always fasten the handset in its cradle; do not lay
the handset on the seat or anywhere that it could
move in the event of a collision or sudden braking.
Please follow the current laws of the country
where you are located.
Operating Environment
When using the telephone, observe the legal reg-
ulations and local restrictions. Turn off the device
wherever you are requested by the appropriate
warnings, e.g. near fuel and/or ammable chemi-
cals.
Health
The function of medical devices, such as a heart
pacemaker, can be disturbed. Therefore always
keep a minimum distance of 20 cm between the
antenna of this device and the pacemaker. During
a conversation hold the phone on the ear farther
away from the pacemaker. For more information
consult your doctor.
If interfering noises occur in connection with a
hearing aid, please contact the manufacturer of
the hearing aid or your hearing care professional.
The PTCarPhone is Not a Toy
Do not let children play with the PTCarPhone. The
spiral cable of the handset or swallowed small
parts can lead to suffocation!
Take Care of your Hearing
Only set the volume as loud as necessary and avoid
exposing your hearing to loud volumes over a
longer period of time.
Do Not Drown Out Warning Signals
Awareness of the warning signals of others on the
road must not be adversely affected by the tele-
phone. Set the volume of the telephone appropri-
ately so that you can always be clearly aware of
warning signals from the surroundings, for exam-
ple horns and sirens.
Safe Installation
Avoid mounting all components in the deployment
area of the airbag. Fasten the PTCarPhone and ac-
cessories sufciently so that in the case of sudden,
hard braking they cannot cause damage ying
around. Use the included fastening material or
suitable materials for the corresponding surfaces
for this.

Network Services
Some functions of this device are designated as
network services. Network services are added ser-
vices that are made available by the mobile phone
service provider at the request of the user.
Before the user can use these, authorization must
be given for the use of these services from the mo-
bile phone service provider. Some networks may
not support all services and/or functions.
Environmental Inuences: Water & Dust
The PTCarPhone and all accessories are neither
dustproof nor waterproof. Make sure that the
PTCarPhone is always protected from moisture and
from water penetrating the vehicle. Regular clean-
ing of exposed accessory parts and the interior of
the vehicle can prevent the penetration of dust
particles in the housing. A soft, lint-free, dry cloth
is suitable for cleaning.
