Dangerous areas
The BlackBerry device is not an intrinsically safe device and is not suitable
for use in hazardous environments, where such devices are required,
including without limitation, in presence of gas fumes, explosive dust
situations, operation of nuclear facilities, aircraft navigation or
communication services, air traffic control, and life support or weapons
systems.
Potentially explosive atmospheres: Turn off all wireless connections on the
BlackBerry device 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.
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often, but not always,
clearly marked. They include fueling areas such as gasoline or petrol
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 engine.
Do not use the phone on the BlackBerry device to report a gas leak in the
vicinity of the leak. Leave the area and, if the phone is available and active
on the BlackBerry device, make the call from a safe location.
Blasting areas: To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn off all
wireless connections on the BlackBerry device when in a “blasting area” or
in areas posted: “Turn off two-way radio.” Obey all signs and instructions.
