SAFETY WARNINGS
Vehicles with air bags:
Do not place your radio in the area over an air bag or in the air bag deployment area.
Air bags inflate with great force. If a radio is placed in the air bag deployment area and the air
bag inflates, the radio may be propelled with great force and can cause serious injury to the
occupants of the vehicle.
Potentially Explosive Atmospheres.
Turn your radio off when in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere, unless it is a type
especially qualified for such use (for example, by intrinsic safe approvals). Sparks in such areas
could cause an explosion or fire resulting in injury or even death.
Blasting caps areas
To avoid possible interference with blasting operations turn your radio OFF near electrical bla-
sting caps or in a “blasting area” or in areas posted: “Turn off any two way radio.” Obey all
signs and instructions.

Mobile phones are only allowed to be operated in hands-free mode, while CB & commercial
two way radios are still allowed even with hand microphone.
