24 For your safety
Warning
If you have a pacemaker:
■
immediately turn off the radio if you suspect it is inter-
fering with the pacemaker
■
keep the radio at least 6 inches (15 cm) from the
pacemaker while the radio is on
■
use the radio on the side opposite to the pacemaker
to minimize interference
■
never carry the radio in a breast pocket.
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
Unless the radio is specifically certified for use
in a potentially explosive atmosphere, turn off the radio
before entering such an atmosphere. An explosion could
cause serious injury or death. Examples of potentially
explosive atmospheres include filling stations, and any
environment where there are flammable liquids, gases, or
dusts.
Warning
Turn off the radio before approaching blasting
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.
Radio installation and operation in
vehicles
Warning
Keep the radio away from airbags and airbag
deployment areas. Do not install, charge, or place a radio
near such areas. An activated airbag can propel a
portable radio with sufficient force to cause serious injury
to vehicle occupants. An airbag may not perform to
specification if obstructed by a radio.
Warning
To avoid damage to existing wiring, airbags,
fuel tanks, fuel and brake lines, or battery cables, refer to
