Electromagnetic Interference/Compatibility

Note: Nearly every electronic device is susceptible
to electromagnetic interference (EMI) if
inadequately shielded, designed or other-
wise configured for electromagnetic com-
patibility.
To avoid electromagnetic interference and/or
compatibility conflicts, turn off your radio in any
facility where posted notices instruct you to do so.
Hospitals or health care facilities may be using
equipment that is sensitive to external RF energy.
When instructed to do so, turn off your radio when
on board an aircraft. Any use of a radio must be in
accordance with airline regulations or crew
instructions.

Operational Warnings

Vehicles Equipped with
Airbags
An airbag inflates with great force.
DO NOT place objects, including communication
equipment, in the area over the airbag or in the
airbag deployment area. If the communication
equipment is improperly placed and the airbag
inflates, this could cause serious injury.

Potentially Explosive Atmospheres

Turn off your two-way radio when you are in any
area with a potentially explosive
atmosphere.
Sparks in a potentially explosive atmosphere can
cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or
even death.

Blasting Caps and Areas

To avoid possible interference with blasting
operations, turn off your radio when you are near
electrical blasting caps, in a blasting area, or in
areas posted: "Turn off two-way radio." Obey all
signs and instructions.
Note:
The areas with potentially explosive atmospheres
referred to above include fueling areas such as:
below decks on boats; fuel or chemical transfer or
! !
storage facilities; areas where the air contains
chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust or metal
W A R N I N G
powders; and any other area where you would
normally be advised to turn off your vehicle engine.
Areas with potentially explosive atmospheres are
often but not always posted.
