Safety Information and Warnings
WARNING
Potentially Explosive Atmospheres
Turn your radio OFF when in any area with a potentially explosive
atmosphere. Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire
resulting in injury or even death.
NOTE:
Areas with potentially explosive atmospheres are often, but
not always clearly marked. They include fueling areas such as below
deck on boats; fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities; 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.
Blasting Caps and Areas
To avoid possible interference with blasting operations, turn your
radio OFF near electrical blasting caps or in a “blasting area” or
in areas posted: “Turn off two way radios.” Obey all signs and
instructions.
Electromagnetic Interference/Compatibility
Nearly every electronic device is susceptible to electromagnetic
interference (EMI). To avoid the possibility of electromagnetic
interference and/or compatibility conflicts, turn off your radio in any
location where posted notices instruct you to do so such as health
care facilities.
