■ 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 refuelling 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.
■ Emergency Calls
Important: This device operates using radio signals, wireless
networks, landline networks, and user-programmed
functions. If your device supports voice calls over the
internet (internet calls), activate both the internet calls
and the cellular phone. The device will attempt to make
emergency calls over both the cellular networks and
through your internet call provider if both are activated.
Connections in all conditions cannot be guaranteed. You
should never rely solely on any wireless device for essential
communications like medical emergencies.
To make an emergency call:
1. If the device is not on, power it on. Check for adequate
signal strength.
