W A R N I N G
• Other Medical Devices
If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of your device to
determine if it is adequately shielded from RF energy. Your physician may be able to assist
you in obtaining this information.
• Use While Driving
Check the laws and regulations on the use of radios in the area where you drive. Always
obey them
When using your radio while driving, please:
• Give full attention to driving and to the road.
• Use hands-free operation, if available.
• Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call if driving conditions so
require.
• For Vehicles with an Air Bag
Do not place a radio in the area over an air bag or in the air bag deployment area. Air bags
inflate with great force. If a radio is placed in the air bag deployment area and the air bag
inflates, the radio may be propelled with great force and cause serious injury to occupants
of the vehicle.
• Potentially Explosive Atmospheres
Turn off your radio prior to entering any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere,
unless it is a radio type especially qualified for use in such areas as "Intrinsically Safe" (for
example, Factory Mutual, CSA, UL, or CENELEC Approved). Do not remove, install, or
charge batteries in such areas. Sparks in a potentially explosive atmosphere can cause an
explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death.
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 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.
• 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.
