Potentially Explosive Atmospheres
Power off your device in any area with a potentially explosive
atmosphere, and comply with all signs and instructions. Areas that
may have potentially explosive atmospheres include the areas where
you would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle engine.
Triggering of sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire,
resulting in bodily injuries or even deaths. Do not switch on the
device at refueling points such as service stations. Comply with
restrictions on the use of radio equipment in fuel depots, storage,
and distribution areas, and chemical plants. Also, adhere to
restrictions in areas where blasting operations are in progress. Before
using the device, watch out for areas that have potentially explosive
atmosphere that are often, but not always, clearly marked. Such
locations include areas below the deck on boats, chemical transfer or
storage facilities and areas where the air contains chemicals or
particles such as grain, dust, or metal powders. Ask the
manufacturers of vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas (such as
propane or butane) if this device can be safely used in their vicinity.
