■ Potentially explosive environments
Switch off your device when in any area with a potentially
explosive atmosphere, and obey all signs and instructions.
Potentially explosive atmospheres include areas where you
would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle engine.
Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting
in bodily injury or even death. Switch off the device at refueling
points such as near gas pumps at service stations. Observe
restrictions on the use of radio equipment in fuel depots,
storage, and distribution areas; chemical plants; or where
blasting operations are in progress. Areas with a potentially
explosive atmosphere are often, but not always, clearly marked.
They include below deck on boats, chemical transfer or storage
facilities, vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas (such as
propane or butane), and areas where the air contains chemicals
or particles such as grain, dust, or metal powders.
