Driving Safety Tips

NOTE: For safety and legal reasons (in many countries), do not use

your phone while driving. Check and follow the local laws regarding the use of mobile

phones while driving.

Safety — Your most important call. The Wireless Industryreminds you to use your phone safely when driving.

1. Get to know your wireless phone and its features such as speed dial and redial. Carefully read your instruction m anual 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 av ailable, use a hands free device. A n umber 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 conversati ons duri ng hazardous driving conditions or situations. Let the person you a re speaking with know you are dri ving; if necessary, suspend the call i n 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.

5. Do not tak e notes or look up phone numbers while driving. If you are reading an address book or business card or writing a “to do” list while driving a car, then you are not watching where you are goi ng. It's com mo n sense. Don't get caught in a dangerous situation because you are reading or writing and not paying attention to the road or nearby vehicles.

6. Dial sensibly and assess the traffic. If possible, place calls when you are not moving or before pulling into traffic. Try to plan your calls before you begin your trip or attempt to coincide your calls with times you may be stopped at a stop sign, red light or otherwise stationary.But if you need to dial while driving, follow this simple tip — dial only a few numbers, check the road and your mirrors, then continue.

7. Do not engage in stressful or emotional conversations that may be distracting. Stressful or emotional conversations and driving do not mix — they are distracting and even dangerous when you are behind the wheel of a car. Make people you are talking with aware you are driving and if necessary,suspend conversations which have the potential to divert your attention from the road.

8. Use your wireless phone to call for help. Your wireless phone is one of the greatest t ools you can own to protect yourself and your family in dangerous situations — with your phone at your side, help is only three numbers a w ay. Dial 9-1-1 or other local emergency n umber in the case of fire, traffic accident, road hazard or medical emergencies. Remember, it is a free call on your wireless phon e!

9. Use your wireless phone to help others in emergencies. Your wireless phone provides you a perfect opportunity to be a “Good Samaritan” in your community. If you see an auto accident, crime in progress or other serious emergency where lives are in dang er, call 9-1-1 or other local emergency number, as you would want others to do for yo u.

nextel.com

10.Call roadsi de assistance or a special wireless nonemergency assistance number when necessary.

Certain situations you encounter while driving may require attention but are not urgent enough to merit a call for emergency services. But you still can use your wireless phone to lend a hand. If you see a brokendown vehicle posing no serious hazard, a broken traffic signal, a minor traffic accident w here no one appears to be injured or a vehicle you know to be stolen, call roadside assi stance or other special no nemergency wireless numbers.

Pause Digit Entry

When storing a number, you can program your phone so it will not only dial a number but also pause before entering another series of numbers such as a personal identificationnumber (PIN) or password. This feature is particularly usefulforaccessing automated servicessuch as voice mail and banking systems from your i90c phone.

Example:Let’s say you have a company voice mail accountthat you frequently check while traveling. And, to access that account you must do the following:

• dial your work number

• press # while the voice mail greeting is being played

• enter your PIN to access your messages

You can program your phone to enter all of the above informationfor you by separating each entry with a pause. The stored data would look l ike this: 17035551234P#P1234. In this example,the first eleven digits representthe number that must be dialed to access your voice mail. The P represents a 3 second pause.The # interrupts your greeting. The second P representsanother 3 second pause. The last four digits represent your PIN.

To create a three-second pause, follow the steps below:

Press and hold * for two seconds. The pause symbol (P) will appear on the display screen.

NOTE:You can enter up to 20 characters in a single entry, storedor

dialed. You can program your phone to pause for more than 3 seconds. Performing the above step twice will program two pauses and cause your phone to wait 6 seconds before entering the next set of numbers.

Plus Dialing

This feature enables you to place an internationalcall from most countries— without enteringthe local international access code. Use Plus Dialingfor all Phonebook entries if you plan to travel outside the United States. Begin by following the instructions for “Adding Phonebook Entries” on page 46. Before you type t he phone number to be stored:

Press and hold 0 for two seconds. A “0” appears, then changes to a “+”.

NOTE:The network translates the “+” into the appropriate

international access code needed to placethe call.

Enter the country code, city code, or area code (as needed), and phone number.
