communication devices are examples of devices that provide wireless
communication.
Warning
In environments where the risk of interference to other devices or services
is harmful or perceived as harmful, the option to use a wireless device may be
restricted or eliminated. Airports, hospitals, and oxygen or flammable gas laden
atmospheres are limited examples where use of wireless devices may be
restricted or eliminated. When in environments where you are uncertain of the
sanction to use wireless devices, ask the applicable authority for authorization
prior to using or turning on the wireless device.
