1.1.11 BLASTING AREAS

To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your unit OFF when in a « blasting
area » or in areas posted : « turn off two-way radio ». Construction crew often use
remote control RF devices to set off explosives.

1.1.12 POTENTIALLY EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERES

Turn Your modem OFF when in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere. It is
rare, but Your modem or its accessories could generate sparks. Sparks in such areas
could cause an explosion or fire resulting in 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 decks 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, liquid, or explosives, in the compartment of
your vehicle which contains Your modem or accessories. Before using Your modem
in a vehicle powered by liquefied petroleum gas (such as propane or butane)
ensure that the vehicle complies with the relevant fire and safety regulations of the
country in which the vehicle is to be used.

1.1.13 NON-IONISING RADIATION

As with other mobile radio transmitting equipment, users are advised that for
satisfactory operation and for the safety of personnel, it is recommended that no
part of the human body be allowed to come too close to the antenna during
operation of the equipment.
The radio equipment shall be connected to the antenna via a non-radiating 50Ohm
coaxial cable.
The antenna shall be mounted in such a position that no part of the human body will
normally rest close to any part of the antenna. It is also recommended to use the
