SAFETY INFORMATION FOR WIRELESS

HANDHELD PHONES

POTENTIALLY EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERES

Turn your phone off when in areas with potentially

explosive atmospheres, obeying all signs and instruc-

tions. 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.
