10 For your safety
Interference with electronic devices
Some electronic devices may be prone to malfunction
due to the lack of protection from RF energy that is
present when your radio is
transmitting.
Examples of electronic devices that may be affected by
RF energy
are:
■ aircraft electronic systems
■ vehicular electronic systems such as fuel injection,
anti-skid brakes, and cruise control
■ medical devices such as hearing aids
and pacemakers
■ medical equipment in hospitals or health
care facilities.
Switch off the radio before boarding an aircraft. Using
your radio while in the air is not
permitted.
Consult the manufacturer (or its representative) of any
such electronic devices to determine whether electronic
circuits in those devices will perform normally when the
radio is
transmitting.
If you have a pacemaker, immediately turn off the radio
if you suspect it is interfering with the pacemaker.
If there is interference between your hearing aid and the
radio, please discuss an alternative solution with the
hearing aid manufacturer.
Potentially explosive atmospheres and
blasting areas
Warning: Turn off the radio before approaching blast-
ing caps, a blasting area, or any area where you are
instructed to turn off a two-way radio. Obey all signs
and instructions. Interference with blasting operations
could cause serious injury or death.
