Potentially Explosive
Atmospheres

Switch off your phone 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 refueling 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 below deck 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.
