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
when 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.
