IMPORTANT INFORMATION ON CELL PHONES USAGE

IMPORTANT INFORMATION ON CELL PHONES USAGE

If you're USING Mobile Phones while driving a car keep them in the car while filling up fuel. There have been three cases so far:

Case 1
Two months ago at a petrol station in Bandar Sri Damansara. The Car owner put his hand phone on the boot and started pumping fuel.
The phone rang and the car caught fire from the fumes coming out of the tank.

Case 2
A man got his face burnt while talking on the phone as he was pumping petrol.

Case 3
A man burnt his pants because the phone was in his pants pocket and rang while pumping petrol.

Using a hands-free WILL NOT reduce the risk. KEEP IT IN THE CAR. Almost all phones will indicate "Missed Calls" and the
number. So why take the risk?

Apparently it is the key pad or ringer that produces a small amount of electricity spark, enough to ignite the petrol fumes.

2) To all Mobile users read this

To check your Mobile phone's serial number, key in the following digits on your phone: * # 0 6 # (Note: A star followed by hash
Followed by 0 followed by 6 followed by hash).

A 15 digit code will appear on the screen. This number is unique to your handset. Write it down and keep it somewhere
safe. Should your phone get stolen, you can phone your service provider and give them this code.

They will then be able to block your handset so even if the thief Changes the Sim card your phone will be totally useless. You probably
won't get your phone back, but at least you know that whoever stole it can't use /sell it either.

(3) Mobile phones

This Real story was told by a house-man in a local hospital in Bangalore.


A four year old girl was admitted due to leg fracture. As it was an open fracture, she had to undergo an operation to
stitch the protruding bone back in place. Though it was quite a minor operation, still she was hooked on to a life system, as its somehow part of the process. The doctors had to input some date prior to the operation to suit different conditions. Thereafter, the operation proceeded. Half way through the process, the life support system suddenly went dead.

The culprit: Some idiot was using his / her mobile phone outside the operation theatre. And the frequency had affected
the system.

They tried to track the fellow but to no avail. The little girl, young and innocent as she was, died soon after.
Sad to say, she was the only child.

Message:
Be compassionate. Do not use your mobile phone at any hospital, aircrafts or places where you are told not to use it.
You might not be caught in the act, but you might have killed someone without knowing.
