Turn your radio OFF in health care facilities when any regulations
posted in these areas instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health
care facilities may be using equipment that could be sensitive to
external RF energy.
Vehicles—RF signals may affect improperly installed or
inadequately shielded electronic systems in motor vehicles. Check
with the manufacturer or its representative regarding your vehicle.
You should also consult the manufacturer of any equipment that
has been added to your vehicle.
Posted Facilities—Turn your radio OFF in any facility where
posted notices so require.
Commercial Aircraft—Many commercial airlines prohibit the use
of FRS radios on board. Switch OFF your radio before boarding an
aircraft or check the airline rules.
Blasting Areas—To avoid interfering with blasting operations,
turn your radio OFF when in a “blasting area” or in areas posted:
“Turn off two-way radio.” Obey all signs and instructions.
Potentially Explosive Atmospheres—Turn your radio OFF
and do not remove your battery when you are in any area with a
potentially explosive atmosphere. Obey all signs and instructions.
Sparks from your battery 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
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.
