OTHER SAFETY GUIDELINES
Aircraft
FCC regulations prohibit using your phone while in the air. Turn
your phone OFF before boarding an aircraft. Always request
and obtain prior consent and approval of an authorized airline
representative before using your phone aboard an aircraft.
Always follow the instructions of the airline representative
whenever using your phone aboard an aircraft, to prevent any
possible interference with airborne electronic equipment.
Blasting Areas
To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your phone
OFF when in a “blasting area” or in areas posted: “Turn off two-
way radio.” Obey all signs and instructions.
Potentially Explosive Atmospheres
Turn your phone OFF 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.
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often, but not
always, clearly marked. They include fueling areas such as gas
stations; below deck on boats; fuel or chemical transfer or stor-
age 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 vehi-
cle’s engine.
