Operational Warnings
WARNING:
For vehicles with an air bag, refer to the manual of the vehicle manufacturer before installation
of electronic equipment to avoid interference with air bag wiring.
Do not mount or place a 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 cause serious injury to occupants of the vehicle.
Potentially Explosive Atmospheres (explosive atmospheres refers to hazard classified locations
that may contain hazardous gas, vapors, or dusts)
Turn off your radio before entering any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere, unless it is a
radio type especially qualified for use in such areas as "Intrinsically Safe" (such as Factory Mutual,
CSA, UL, CENELEC, or ATEX approved). Do not remove, install, or charge batteries in such areas.
Sparks in a potentially explosive atmosphere can cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury
or even death.
The areas with potentially explosive atmospheres include fueling areas such as below decks on
boats, fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities, areas where the air contains chemicals or
particles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders. Areas with potentially explosive atmospheres are
often but not always posted.
Blasting Caps And Blasting Areas
To avoid possible interference with blasting operations, turn off your radio when you are near
electrical blasting caps, in a blasting area, or in areas posted: "Turn Off Two-way Radio". Obey all
signs and instructions.
For radios installed in vehicles fueled by liquefied petroleum gas, refer to the (U.S.) National Fire
Protection Association standard, NFPA 58, for storage, handling, and/or container information. For a
copy of the liquefied petroleum standard, NFPA 58, contact the National Fire Protection Association,
One Battery Park, Quincy, MA.
Operational Cautions
Antennas
Do not use any portable radio that has a damaged antenna. If a damaged antenna comes into contact with
your skin, a minor burn can result.
Batteries
If a conductive material such as jewelry, keys, or beaded chains touch exposed battery terminals, it can
cause property damage and/or bodily injury such as burns. The conductive material may complete an
