iv SAFETY INFORMATION

OPERATIONAL WARNINGS

Vehicles with an air bag

Potentially explosive atmospheres

Batteries

Blasting caps and areas

OPERATIONAL CAUTIONS

Damaged antennas

Batteries

WARNING: Do not place a portable radio in the area over an air bag or in the air bag deploy-

ment area. Air bags inflate with great force. If a portable radio is placed in the air bag deploy-

ment area and the air bag inflates, the radio may be propelled with great force and cause

serious injury to occupants of vehicle.

WARNING: 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 (e.g. FM or

Cenelec approved). Sparks in a potentially explosive atmosphere can cause an explosion or

fire resulting in bodily injury or even death.

WARNING: Do not replace or recharge batteries in a potentially explosive atmosphere. Con-

tact sparking may occur while installing or removing batteries and cause an explosion.

WARNING: To avoid possible interference with blasting operations, turn off your radio when

you are near electrical blasting caps. In a “blasting area”orinareasposted“turn off two-way

radio”, obey all signs and instructions.

NOTE

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.

CAUTION: Do not use any portable two-way radio that has a damaged antenna. If a damaged

antenna comes into contact with your skin, a minor burn can result.

CAUTION: All batteries can cause property damage and/or bodily injury such as burns if a

conductive material such as jewelry, 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.
