Operational Warnings

Vehicles With an Air Bag
Do not place a portable radio 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 radio may be propelled with great force
and cause serious injury to occupants of the vehicle.
Potentially Explosive Atmospheres
Turn off your two-way radio when you are in any
area with a potentially explosive atmosphere, unless
it is a radio type especially qualified for use in such
areas (for example, Factory Mutual or CENELEC
Approved). Sparks in a potentially explosive
atmosphere can cause an explosion or fire resulting
in bodily injury or even death.
Batteries
Do not replace or recharge batteries in a potentially
explosive atmosphere. Contact sparking may occur
while installing or removing batteries and cause an
explosion.
