radio equipment in fuel depots, storage, and distribution areas, and chemical plants. In addition,
adhere to restrictions in areas where blasting operations are in progress. Before using the device,
watch out for areas that have potentially explosive atmospheres 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) whether this device can be safely used in their vicinity.
