SAFETY INFORMATION FOR WIRELESS
HANDHELD PHONES
POTENTIALLY EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERES
Turn your phone off when in areas with potentially
explosive atmospheres, obeying all signs and instructions.
Sparks in such areas could cause a fire or explosion
resulting in bodily injury or even death.
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are
often, but not always, clearly marked. They include
fueling areas such as gas stations; below deck on
boats; fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities;
vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas (such as
propane or butane); areas where the air contains
chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust, or metal
powders; and any other area where you would normally
be advised to turn off your vehicle’s engine.
