OPERATIONAL WARNINGS
•
FOR VEHICLES WITH AN AIR BAG
Do not place a portable phone in the area over an air bag or in the air bag
deployment area. Air bags inflate with great force. If a portable radio is placed in
the air bag deployment area and the air bag inflates, the phone may be propelled
with great force and cause serious injury to occupants of the vehicle.
•
POTENTIALLY EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERES
Turn off your phone prior to entering any area with a potentially explosive atmo-
sphere, unless it is a phone type especially qualified for use in such areas as
"Intrinsically Safe" (for example, Factory Mutual, CSA, or UL Approved). Do not
remove, install, or charge batteries in such areas. Sparks in a potentially explo-
sive 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 atmo-
spheres are often but not always posted.
