Posted facilities
Switch your phone off in any facility where posted
notices require you to do so.
Potentially explosive atmospheres
Switch your phone off when in any area with a
potentially explosive atmosphere and obey all signs
and instructions. Sparks in such areas could cause
an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even
death.
Users are advised to switch off the phone while at a
refuelling point (service station). Users are
reminded of the need to observe restrictions on the
use of radio equipment in fuel depots (fuel storage
and distribution areas), chemical plants or where
blasting operations are in progress.
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are
often but not always clearly marked. They include
the areas below decks on boats, chemical transfer
or storage facilities, vehicles using liquefied
petroleum gas (such as propane or butane), 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.
