Potentially Explosive Atmospheres
Switch off your phone when in any area with a potentially explosive
atmosphere and obey all signs and instructions. Sparks in such
areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or
even death.
Users are advised to switch off the phone while at a refueling point
(service station). Users are reminded of the need to observe re-
strictions on the use of radio equipment in fuel depots (fuel storage
and distribution areas), chemical plants or where blasting opera-
tions are in progress.
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often but not al-
ways clearly marked. They include below deck on boats; chemical
transfer or storage facilities; vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas
(such as propane or butane); areas where the air contains chemi-
cals or particles, such as grain, dust or metal powders; and any
other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your
vehicle engine.
Vehicles
Only qualified personnel should install the phone in a vehicle, or
service the phone. Faulty installation or service may be dangerous
and may invalidate any warranty which may apply to the unit.
Check regularly that all cellular phone equipment in your vehicle is
mounted and operating properly.
Do not store or carry flammable liquids, gases or explosive ma-
terials in the same compartment as a cellular phone or any of its
parts or accessories.
For vehicles equipped with an air bag, remember that an air bag
inflates with great force. Do not place objects, including both in-
stalled or portable wireless equipment, in the area over the air bag
or in the air bag deployment area. If in-vehicle wireless equipment
is improperly installed and the air bag inflates, serious injury could
result.
