Potentially Explosive Atmosphere
Power off your device in any area with a potentially explosive
atmosphere, and comply with all signs and instructions. Areas that
may have potentially explosive atmospheres include the areas
where you would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle
engine. Triggering of sparks in such areas could cause an
explosion or a fire, resulting in bodily injuries or even deaths. Do
not power on your device at refueling points such as service
stations. Comply with restrictions on the use of radio equipment in
fuel depots, storage, and distribution areas, and chemical plants.
In addition, adhere to restrictions in areas where blasting
operations are in progress. Before using the device, watch out for
areas that have potentially explosive atmospheres that are often,
but not always, clearly marked. Such locations include areas below
the deck on boats, chemical transfer or storage facilities, and areas
where the air contains chemicals or particles such as grain, dust,
or metal powders. Ask the manufacturers of vehicles using
liquefied petroleum gas (such as propane or butane) whether this
device can be safely used in their vicinity.
