OPERATIONAL WARNINGS

For Vehicles Equipped with an Air Bag: Do not place a portable radio product in
the area over the air bag or in the air bag deployment area. An air bag inflates with
great force. If a portable radio is placed in the air bag deployment area and the air bag
inflates, the radio product may be propelled with great force and cause serious injury
to occupants of the vehicle.
Potentially Explosive Atmospheres: Turn off your radio product, prior to entering
any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere, unless it is a radio product type
especially qualified for use in such areas (for example, Factory Mutual 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.
Batteries: All batteries can cause property damage and/or bodily injury, such as burns
if a conductive material such as jewelry, keys, or beaded chains touches exposed ter-
minals. The conductive material may complete an electrical circuit (short circuit) and
become quite hot. Exercise care in handling any charged battery, particularly when
placing it inside a pocket, purse, or other container with metal objects.
Cleaning and Drying Considerations: Using a leather carry case may help protect
the surfaces and help prevent liquids (e.g., rain) from entering into the interior of the
radio product. This product is not waterproof, and exposing the unit to liquids may
result in permanent damage to the unit.
If your Wireless Telephone interior gets wet, then do not try to accelerate drying with
the use of an oven or a dryer as this will damage the Wireless Telephone and void the
warranty. Instead, do the following: 1. Immediately power off the Wireless Telephone.
2. Remove battery pack from Wireless Telephone. 3. Shake excess liquid from Wire-
less Telephone. 4. Place the Wireless Telephone and battery pack in an area that is at
room temperature and has good airflow. 5. Let the Wireless Telephone and battery
pack dry for 72 hours before reconnecting the battery pack and/or powering on the
Wireless Telephone. If the Wireless Telephone does not work after following the steps
listed above, contact your dealer for servicing information.
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 con-
tains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust or metal pow-
ders, 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.
