Potentially explosive environments
Disconnect the terminal when it is in an area where explosions may occur and obey all
signs and instructions.
The areas where explosions may occur are usually, but not always, marked. These areas
include fuel loading areas, such as ship decks, petrol stations, premises for storage and
transport of motor fuel or chemical products, vehicles that use liquid gas petroleum and
areas where the air contains chemical particles or elements, as grain, powder or metallic
particles.
Sparks in these areas may cause explosions or fire, with the subsequent risk of injury or
even death.
Driver safety
Check the laws and regulations about the use of mobile telephones and radiotelephones
in the area where you are driving and always respect them. While driving, pay full
attention, and always keep your hands free for operating the vehicle.
As measure of caution, whenever possible, park off the road before making or answering
a call.
Acoustic shock
The terminal has a low power front speaker, only used for duplex calls, and a high power
rear speaker for half-duplex calls. Only keep the terminal near to your ear (as if it were a
mobile phone) when you make or receive duplex calls, otherwise it may damage your ear.
