Vehicles
Only qualified personnel should service the phone, or install the phone
in a vehicle. Faulty installation or service may be dangerous and may
invalidate any warranty which may apply to the unit.
Check regularly that all mobile phone equipment on your vehicle is
mounted and operating properly.
Do not store or carry flammable liquids, gases or explosive materials in
the same compartment as the phone, its parts or accessories.
For vehicles equipped with an air bag, remember that an air bag inflates
with great force. Do not place objects, including both installed or
portable wireless equipment in the area over the air bag or in the air
bag deployment area. If in-vehicle wireless equipment is improperly
installed and the air bag inflates, serious injury could result.
Switch off your phone before boarding an aircraft. The use of mobile
phones in an aircraft may be dangerous to the operation of the aircraft,
disrupt the wireless telephone network and may be illegal.
Failure to observe these instructions may lead to the suspension or
denial of telephone services to the offender, or legal action, or both.

Reference Information
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.
