Potentially Explosive Atmospheres
Turn off your Personal Communicator prior to entering any area with a
potentially explosive atmosphere, unless it is 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 explosive atmosphere can cause an
explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death.
The areas with potentially explosive atmospheres referred to above
include fuelling 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
Personal Communicator 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.

Operational Cautions

Antennas
Do not use the Personal Communicator if it has a damaged antenna.
If a damaged antenna comes into contact with your skin, a minor burn
can result.
Batteries
All batteries can cause property damage and/or bodily injury such as
burns if a conductive material such as jewellery, keys, or beaded chains
touch exposed terminals. 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.
