control systems, and air bag systems. For more information, check with
the manufacturer, or its representative, of your vehicle or any equipment
that has been added.
Only qualified personnel should service the device or install the device
in a vehicle. Faulty installation or service may be dangerous and may
invalidate any warranty that may apply to the device. Check regularly
that all wireless device equipment in your vehicle is mounted and
operating properly. Do not store or carry flammable liquids, gases, or
explosive materials in the same compartment as the device, its parts, or
enhancements. For vehicles equipped with an air bag, remember that
air bags inflate with great force. Do not place objects, including installed
or portable wireless equipment in the area over the air bag or in the air
bag deployment area. If in-vehicle wireless equipment is improperly
installed and the air bag inflates, serious injury could result.
Using your device while flying in aircraft is prohibited. Turn off your
device before boarding an aircraft. The use of wireless teledevices in an
aircraft may be dangerous to the operation of the aircraft, disrupt the
wireless telephone network, and may be illegal.
■ Potentially Explosive Environments
Turn off your device when in any area with a potentially explosive
atmosphere, and obey all signs and instructions. Potentially explosive
atmospheres include areas where you would normally be advised to turn
off your vehicle engine. Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion
or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death. Turn off the device at
refueling points such as near gas pumps at service stations. Observe
restrictions on the use of radio equipment in fuel depots, storage, and
distribution areas; chemical plants; or where blasting operations are in
progress. Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often, but
not always, clearly marked. They include below deck on boats, chemical
transfer or storage facilities and areas where the air contains chemicals
or particles such as grain, dust, or metal powders. You should check
with the manufacturers of vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas (such
as propane or butane) to determine if this device can be safely used in
their vicinity.
