Potentially explosive atmospheres

Turn off your mobile phone when in any area with a potentially explosive
atmosphere. It is rare, but your phone or its accessories could generate

bodily injury or even death. Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere
are often, but not always, clearly marked. They include fuelling areas, such as
petrol stations, below deck on boats, fuel or chemical transfer or storage
facilities, and areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as
grain, dust, or metal powders. Do not transport or store flammable gas,
