GETTING TO KNOW YOUR RINO 530
The Rino 530 (Radio Integrated with Navigation for
the Outdoors) is a 7.6 ounce, 12 channel GPS-enabled
handheld device. It has integrated radio functionality to
provide two-way communications for up to two miles
using 14 FRS (Family Radio Service) channels. The Rino
530 also provides 8 high-performance GMRS (General
Mobile Radio Service) channels and 8 GMRS repeater
channels (U.S. versions only) for up to five miles.
GMRS repeater channels are not approved for use by the
Canadian government, so they are disabled on Rino 530
units sold in Canada.
The Rino 530 has three user-selectable power levels: 0.5
W, 2.0 W, and 5.0 W. Keep in mind that FRS channels
only transmit at 0.5 W, even if you select a higher power
level. The Rino 530 also has a rechargeable lithium-ion
battery pack with charger. If you wish, you can purchase
an optional alkaline battery pack (however, transmit
power is limited to 2.0 W when using this pack).
The unit contains built-in cartography of a North
American basemap that includes Interstate and State
Highways and Exit Information. Using MapSource®,
Garmin’s map data software (not included), the Rino 530
can display up to 24 MB of a variety of different map
information. We currently offer several mapping options
that are compatible with the Rino 530 including our
MetroGuide, Topo, Fishing Hot Spots, and BlueChart®
data. Check your local dealer or the Garmin Web site
(www.garmin.com) for a complete listing of MapSource
products.
Garmin designed your Rino 530 with you, the user, in
mind. The Rino 530 is waterproof to IPX7 standards and
is rugged enough to endure the most trying use. Garmin’s
friendly user interface allows you to start navigating with
your new GPS in no time. Your Rino 530 can provide one
more critical benefit: peace of mind. With your Rino 530
you know where you are, where you’ve been, and where
you’re going. And since you’ll always know the way back
home, you can concentrate on what you set out to do;
explore the great outdoors.

UNIT OPERATION
Radio Page
The Radio Page is the first of the default Main Pages.
This page provides the user interface for FRS (Family
Radio Service) and GMRS (General Mobile Radio
Service) radio operations. Garmin Rino units work
with 3rd party FRS/GMRS radios, provided the other
radios use standard FRS/GMRS frequencies. To take full
advantage of the Rino features, communicate with other
Rino users.
The Radio Page also provides access to the Weather
Radio, which provides a constant update of current
weather conditions. The Weather Alert feature further
enhances the Weather Radio by automatically notifying
you of any weather alerts, even when the Weather Radio
is not is use and the FRS/GMRS radio is in use! These
features are helpful while outdoors or planning a road
trip.
Also use this page to control and setup the radio, view
current settings and see informational graphics of the
unit’s operation.
Radio Page
Initializing the Rino 530
To take full advantage of all of the Rino 530 features,
the GPS receiver must be initialized. The initialization
process allows the Rino 530 to receive and store satellite
information and begin using the satellites for navigation.
Initialization is automatic, should only take a few
minutes, and only needs to be done the first time the unit
is used.

UNIT OPERATION > RADIO PAGE
Setting the Channel and Squelch Code
The Rino 530 has a total of 22 channels (not including
GMRS repeater channels) and 38 squelch codes to select
from using the Channel and Code fields. Channels 1–7
and 15-22 GMRS channels, 8-14 are FRS channels, and
15R–22R are for GMRS repeater channels (repeater
channels are available U.S. units only and are disabled
by default). To communicate with other Rino and
FRS/GMRS users, you must be on the same channel
and squelch code. Garmin Rino units work with 3rd
party FRS/GMRS radios, provided the other radios
use standard FRS/GMRS frequencies. A chart of Rino
frequencies may be found in the “Appendix.”
Squelch codes allow you to hear calls from only specific
persons. Thirty-eight (38) Squelch Codes (called
Continuous Tone Coded Squelch System or CTCSS)
allow your Rino 530 to ignore unwanted calls from other
persons using the same channel. Simply select the same
squelch code (number) as selected by the other person(s)
with which you will communicate.
Select from FRS 1–14, GMRS 15–22
(with GMRS enabled), and 15R–22R
GMRS repeater channels (with GMRS
and Repeater Channels enabled).
NOTE: Squelch codes do not cause your conversa-
tion to be private. They only allow you to filter out
other users on the same channel, so you only hear
the radios you want to hear. Squelch Codes are not a
scrambling system!
Rino520_530_prelim.indd 10 1/25/2005 5:00:30 PM
Rino® 530 Owner’s Manual 11
PRELIMINARYUNIT OPERATION > RADIO PAGE
Setting the squelch code to 0 (squelch code off) allows
you to hear all activity on the selected channel, but
you must be set to the same squelch code as the other
person(s) to transmit back. See the “Appendix” for a table
listing all of the 38 Squelch Codes and their frequencies.
As you change the main channels, the Rino 530
remembers the last channel/squelch code combination
that you were using. For example, you may set the unit
channel to 5 and squelch code to 21, then change the
main channel to 8 and squelch code to 2. If you change
the channel back to 5, the squelch code changes back to
its previous setting of 21. See the “Appendix” for more
information on FRS/GMRS and its operational aspects.
Choose from 38 squelch codes. Setting
the unit to zero will allow you to hear all
transmissions on that channel, but you must
be on the same squelch code to radio back.
To change the Channel and/or Squelch Code:
1. Using the Thumb Stick, highlight the Channel or
Code field and then press the Thumb Stick In to
show a list of available channels/squelch codes.
2. Move the Thumb Stick Up or Down to scroll
through the selections. Because not all the items
fit in the window, a slider bar on the right side
indicates your current position in the list.
3. Once you have highlighted the desired selection,
press the Thumb Stick In.

UNIT OPERATION > RADIO PAGE
Scanning and Monitoring
The Scan option allows you to scan through the available
channels for voice activity. As the unit scans and
receives a signal (or if you transmit), it stops on that
channel/squelch code for a few seconds, then continues
scanning. When the Rino 530 is scanning and it receives
an incoming signal, the Rino 530 automatically decodes
the Squelch Code used by the incoming signal. The Rino
530 then uses that Squelch Code when it transmits back
to that unit.
You may use the Set Scanlist option to pick which
channels/squelch codes to scan. Scanning through the
all the channels can take time: Selecting only specific
channels/squelch codes decreases the scan time and
helps prevent the chances of missing a transmission.
The Scanlist also has Option Menu choices to
Scan Current Codes or Scan All Codes. Choosing Scan
Current Codes scans only the Channel and Squelch Code
combination in memory.
The Monitor option lets you listen to a single channel
for any activity, including static and weak voice signals.
The Rino series automatically squelches a frequency
to filter out unwanted noise. Using the Monitor option
temporarily turns off the automatic squelch, allowing you
to hear the open channel. If you see a broken transmission
symbol (see page 18), there is activity on your selected
channel, but the incoming signal does not match the
Squelch Code your unit is using. You may choose to
monitor a channel if you wish to hear all the activity on a
channel.
To scan or monitor a channel(s):
1. Using the Thumb Stick, highlight the Scan or
Monitor button and then press the Thumb Stick
In. Scan starts searching through the available
channels. Monitor opens the channel to listen to
any radio transmissions on that channel.
2. To stop using either option, highlight the button
with the Thumb Stick and press In.

environments while a higher VOX setting should be
used in noisy environments. Setting the VOX level to 5
is recommended for most environments, but it may be
necessary to adjust the level to achieve the desired voice
trigger level. You will hear yourself talking in the headset
when transmitting successfully using VOX.
Scramble—Adds a level of security to your
conversations. When On, the voice transmission sounds
garbled to other non-scrambled Rino units, as well as
other 3rd party radios.

Using the Rino 530 Radio Features
Your Rino 530 unit provides many features to enhance
your radio experience, such as transmitting your location
or any location and receiving contact information. This
section reviews some of the advanced radio features.
Refer to the “Features” section for information on all of
the features of the Rino 530.
Peer-to-Peer Positioning
The Rino 530’s most unique feature is being able to send
its location to another Rino, which is called Peer-to-
Peer positioning. With peer-to-peer positioning enabled
(see the “Setup Radio” section) and a GPS position,
whenever you press and release either the Call button or
the Talk button, the Rino 530 automatically sends out its
location. This information is available to all other Rino
users that are monitoring the same channel and squelch
code. This feature allows you to track the movement
of other Rino users and even navigate to their location.
Locations may only be sent once every 30 seconds due to
FCC restrictions. Your Rino 530 can respond to polling
requests from other units more frequently.
To transmit your location to other Rino users:
1. Enable Send Location (see the “Setup Radio”
section).
2. Press and release either the Talk or Call button.
A flag on the top Status Bar or in Mark’s hand
indicates the unit is ready to transmit its position.
New Contact Page Overview
The first time that a signal is received from another Rino
user, a New Contact page is displayed. From the New
Contact page you can show their location on your Map,
Goto their location, or add them to your contact list
(select OK). Press Page to ignore this contact.

PRELIMINARY
UNIT OPERATION > USING THE RINO 530 RADIO FEATURES
The Rino 530 can manage up to 50 contacts at any time.
Each time you receive a signal from a contact, your map
is updated showing their new position. A Track Log
of their movement is created and shown on your map
(see the “Track Logs” section). After a contact has been
established, a “<contact name> Updated” message briefly
appears at the bottom of your display each time the
contact updates.
All contacts are listed on a Contact List Page and also
displayed in the Contact Bar on the Map Page (see the
“Map Page” section). Contacts behave like waypoints
and count towards the 500 maximum waypoint total.
If the contact did not have a GPS location on the last
transmission, a ? mark appears below the flag. To
view the contact details (such as Direction, Elevation,
Timestamp, Location, and Notes that have up to 30
characters), highlight the details field and press Left or
Right on the Thumb Stick to change to the next data
field.
Press Left or Right on the Thumb
Stick to view different contact data.

Sending a Location
Another feature is the ability to send a specific location
to other Rino users. This comes in handy when you are
trying to round-up the group or you just want to meet at
a specific location. You may send any point found from
the Find ‘N Go menu. If the unit needs to wait until 30
seconds have elapsed since the last position transmission,
a “Waiting to send location...” message appears until the
unit is able to transmit. If a location is sent more than
once, a number is automatically added to the end of the
name (for example: CAMP, CAMP 1, CAMP 2, etc.).
To send a location, highlight the
Option Menu from the Waypoint

Map Page
The Map Page displays your present position and
direction of movement using a triangular Position Icon
that is centered on the map. As you travel the map display
leaves a “trail” (track log) of your movements.
The map displays geographic details such as rivers, lakes,
highways, and towns. The map can display a higher level
of detail than the basemap provided with the unit (i.e.
residential streets, parks, etc.), if Garmin MapSource
data has been downloaded to the unit using a CD-ROM
mapping program. When using MapSource data, the word
“mapsource” displays below the map scale whenever you
zoom in to view map details.
On the right side of the Map Page, you can choose to
show either the Contact Bar, Data Fields, or only the
Map. As you highlight the contacts on the Contact
Bar, the Map page centers the map on that contact and
displays its name, direction, and distance.
In many instances the map displays an Accuracy Circle
surrounding the Position Icon. The Rino 530 uses both
map resolution and GPS accuracy in defining your
location to a point within the circle. The smaller the
circle, the more accurate your location.
When using the Pan Map feature, a small outline arrow
(Map Pointer) can be moved about the page to
highlight and identify map items or to scroll the map to
view areas not shown on the display screen.
Four optional Data fields on the right side of the page
can be programmed to provide a variety of travel and
navigation information.

While you are navigating a route, the pointer indicates the
direction (a bent arrow) of the turn to the next point in the
route as well as the direction to the current point when
you get within 15 seconds Estimated Time of Arrival of
the current point.
For example, if the arrow is pointing straight up, you
are going directly to your destination. If it points any
direction other than up, turn and move towards the
direction the arrow is pointing until it points up, and
then continue in that direction. If you are using the
Course Pointer option instead and you drift away from
the original line of travel to your destination, the Course
Deviation Indicator (CDI) provides graphic indication of
drift (right or left) and displays the distance off course.
When you are not on an active Goto, Track, or Route (in

The TracBack feature allows you to return along a
traveled path (or another Rino user’s path) without
marking any waypoints. When you are ready to return
to where you started, the Rino 530 takes you back by
following the Track Log that you left behind. You can
save a total of 20 tracks in the unit memory. The Track
Log starts recording as soon as the unit gets a satellite
location fix and the Track Log feature is turned on. When
you no longer need a Track Log you can press the on-
screen Clear button to remove it.
If you want to keep a record of a certain track log or use
the TracBack feature, it is recommended that you clear
the Track Log before you start traveling. The percentage
of memory used by the current track log is displayed in
a window at the top of the page. After the Track Log is
Cleared, it displays zero percent.
When the display reaches 100%, the most recent track
points start to overwrite the least recent if the default
setting Wrap When Full remains selected on the track
log setup. To avoid losing track points you want, save the
Track Log when it approaches the 99% mark. The active
track log stores up to 10,000 points.

WAAS
The Wide Area Augmentation System (WAAS) capability
produces a more accurate position fix. When enabled
(GPS set to Normal and WAAS set to Enabled through
the System Setup Page, also the interface must be set to
something other than RTCM mode), this feature searches
for WAAS satellites near your location and then receives
data for correcting differentials in the GPS satellite
signals. WAAS satellite numbers begin at number 33
or above and are displayed on the Satellite Page. When
differential correction data has been received for GPS
satellites (numbers 32 or below), a D displays in the
signal bar beneath the skyview. It is helpful to orient the
unit antenna toward the WAAS satellite shown in the
skyview. To learn more about the WAAS System, refer to
the Federal Aviation Administration Web site (http://gps.
faa.gov/).
Because the Rino 530 relies on satellite signals to provide
you with navigational guidance, the unit’s view of the sky
determines how fast you achieve navigational status. GPS
signals do not travel through heavy objects or people: For
best results, keep the unit in clear view of the sky.

in unit memory, it always references the LORAN chain
number and secondary stations currently selected in the
Setup TD field. If you enter a different LORAN chain
number, change the secondary stations, or offsets in the
Setup TD field, the active waypoint information reflects
those changes. Because the unit does not rely on the
LORAN signal for navigation, it can reference a different
GRI chain and/or secondary stations and still navigate to
the location stored in memory.

Waypoint Bomber
In this game, it is good to stay on the move! Two or
more players attempt to “bomb” each other. Move your
cursor around on the map page using your Thumb Stick.
When you think an opponent is close to your cursor,
drop a bomb. The receiving radio shows an “Incoming”
message. If the receiving radio is within the blast circle
(about 45 feet), it displays a message that you have been
hit. You must wait 30 seconds between shots to reload.
Either have a timed game with the winner being the one
with the least amount of hits on their radio, or play until
someone gets a specified number of hits (that person
loses).
Waypoint Bomber

APPENDIX > WHAT IS FRS?
What is FRS?
FRS, or Family Radio Service, is a UHF radio frequency
band allocated by the FCC for general public use. The
operating frequency ranges from 462.5625 to 467.7125
MHz, with a maximum transmitting power of one half
watt. FRS radios are small and lightweight, making them
ideally suited for outdoor activities. FRS radios typically
feature a half watt of transmit power. You can expect
your FRS radio to offer reliable operation at a one-mile
range. If the area between you and another FRS operator
is free of obstructions, operation up to two miles can be
achieved. FRS radios broadcast on one of 14 channels,
each with a specific frequency within the FRS band.
The use of FRS radios does not require a license. FRS
was intended for use by families and small groups as an
inexpensive means of two-way voice communication.
FRS is intended for use throughout the United States, its
territories and possessions. It may also be used in Canada.
FRS is not approved outside of these areas and
may interfere with local government communication
frequencies (fire, police, etc.).
FRS Features
More sophisticated FRS radios also include call
functions, squelch codes, channel scan features, and voice
scramble capabilities. Call functions allow you to push
a Call button on the radio to alert other radios set on the
same channel. This feature generates a call tone and is
handy in a noisy environment where the tone is easier to
initially identify than plain speech.
Squelch codes allow you to selectively block out other
FRS users that are not part of your group. They will still
be talking with others in their own group, but you will not
hear them on your radio. They may or may not hear you
and members of your group on their own radios. Squelch
codes act as a filter, blocking your FRS radio from
hearing other unwanted FRS users. Remember though,
these are public-use frequencies and everyone has a right
to talk or listen in.
Rino520_530_prelim.indd 99 1/25/2005 5:01:15 PM
100 Rino® 530 Owner’s Manual
PRELIMINARY
APPENDIX > WHAT IS FRS?
Channel scan allows your FRS radio to scan all FRS
frequencies for signals. After scanning briefly to see what
channels other users are on, simply set your FRS radios to
an unused channel and enjoy less interference. For greater
privacy, some FRS radios have a voice scramble feature.
This feature causes your message to sound garbled to
other FRS users that are not part of your group. However,
it does not guarantee your conversations will be 100
percent private and secure. Other casual FRS users will
not hear your messages, but users with similar radios or
more technically-oriented users can still monitor your
conversations.
FRS Limitations
If you are operating in an urban environment or in
varying terrain, some features (such as canyons or
mountains) act as obstructions limiting the maximum
reception range of your FRS radio. The UHF FRS
frequencies are “line of sight”, meaning that the signals
do not follow the surface of the earth, but instead radiate
in a straight line from the transmitting antenna. If there
is an obstruction between the transmitting FRS radio and
the receiving FRS radio, the signal will not be received.
Smaller obstructions, such as trees, cars and even crowds
of people cause some loss of signal, resulting in reduced
maximum range.
GMRS
The use of a GMRS (General Mobile Radio Service)
radio requires an FCC license. No license is required in
Canada to operate on GMRS channels. The operating
frequency of GMRS ranges from 462.550 to 462.725
MHz. GMRS radios can use repeater channels (15R–22R)
and repeater towers to extend the range of the operation.
A repeater tower simultaneously receives GMRS signals
on a 467 MHz frequency and then rebroadcasts the
signal on a 462 MHz frequency. Refer to the “Frequency
Charts” for a complete list of each channel’s frequency.
GMRS repeater channels are not approved for use by the
Canadian government, so they are disabled on Rino 530
units sold in Canada.

APPENDIX > TRANSFERRING MAPSOURCE DATA
Transferring MapSource Data
If you have purchased a Garmin MapSource CD-ROM
mapping program you may want to transfer detailed map
data before beginning use, to provide your unit with
maximum Find features and mapping capability. The
Rino 530 accepts up to 24 MB of map data from most
MapSource products. It is not possible to transfer 3rd
party maps into Garmin products.
You cannot view multiple types of MapSource data in the
same location at the same time (one replaces the other if
there is an overlap). When you leave a MetroGuide area
for example and enter the area of a topographic map, the
display changes to contour lines. The same is true when
moving from a topo map to a MetroGuide map. The
BlueChart maps are at the top of the hierarchy and will
replace any other map information. Here is the list of the
hierarchy for your reference:
1. BlueChart
2. MetroGuide
3. Fishing Hot Spots
4. Points of Interest
5. U.S. Waterways & Lights
6. U.S. Topo
7. Roads and Recreation
8. WorldMap
Map data transfer requires the use of a PC, a Garmin
MapSource CD-ROM, and the PC Interface Cable with
RS-232 serial port connector supplied with this unit.
Follow detailed instructions for data transfer in the
MapSource User’s Manual.

PRELIMINARY
APPENDIX > WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS
Warnings and Cautions
The GPS system is operated by the United States government,
which is solely responsible for its accuracy and maintenance. The
system is subject to changes which could affect the accuracy and
performance of all GPS equipment. Although the Garmin Rino 530
is a precision electronic NAVigation AID (NAVAID), any NAVAID
can be misused or misinterpreted and, therefore, become unsafe.
The electronic chart is an aid to navigation and is designed to
facilitate the use of authorized government charts, not replace
them. Only official government charts and notices to mariners
contain all information needed for safe navigation—and, as
always, the user is responsible for their prudent use.
Use the Rino 530 at your own risk. To reduce the risk of unsafe
operation, carefully review and understand all aspects of
this Owner’s Manual. When in actual use, carefully compare
indications from the Rino 530 to all available navigation sources,
including the information from other NAVAIDs, visual sightings,
charts, etc. For safety, always resolve any discrepancies before
continuing navigation.
WARNING: The Rino 530 contains a lithium-ion rechargeable
battery pack. The battery used in this device may present a risk of
fire or chemical burn if mistreated. Do not recharge out of the unit,
disassemble, heat above 140°F (60°C), or incinerate.
WARNING: If the original battery must be removed for
replacement, dispose of the used battery properly. Contact your
local waste disposal department for information on proper disposal
of lithium-ion batteries. Keep used batteries away from children.
Do not disassemble or dispose of batteries in fire.
MAP DATA INFORMATION: One of the goals of Garmin
is to provide customers with the most complete and accurate
cartography that is available to us at a reasonable cost. We use a
combination of governmental and private data sources, which we
identify (as required) in product literature and copyright messages
displayed to the consumer. Virtually all data sources contain
inaccurate or incomplete data to some degree. This is particularly
true outside the United States, where complete and accurate digital
data is either not available or prohibitively expensive.
CAUTION: IT IS THE USER’S RESPONSIBILITY TO
USE THIS PRODUCT PRUDENTLY. THIS PRODUCT IS
INTENDED TO BE USED ONLY AS A NAVIGATIONAL AID
AND MUST NOT BE USED FOR ANY PURPOSE REQUIRING
PRECISE MEASUREMENT OF DIRECTION, DISTANCE,
LOCATION, OR TOPOGRAPHY.

PRELIMINARY
APPENDIX > WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS
IMPORTANT: READ THIS INFORMATION BEFORE
USING YOUR RINO:
Exposure to Radio Frequency Signals—Your wireless handheld
radio is a low power radio transmitter and receiver. When it is
on, it receives and also sends out radio frequency (RF) signals.
In August 1996, The Federal Communications Commissions
(FCC) adopted RF exposure guidelines with safety levels for
handheld wireless radios. Those guidelines are consistent with
safety standards previously set by both U.S. and international
standards bodies: American National Standards Institute (ANSI)
IEEE. C95.1-1992; National Council on Radiation Protection
and Measurements (NCRP) Report 86; International Commission
on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) 1996. Those
standards were based on comprehensive and periodic evaluations
of the relevant scientific literature. For example, over 130
scientists, engineers, and physicians from universities, government
health agencies, and industry reviewed the available body of
research to develop the ANSI Standard (C95.1). The design of your
radio complies with the FCC guidelines (and those standards).
For body-worn and face-held operation, this radio demonstrates
compliance and meets the FCC RF exposure guidelines for
uncontrolled exposure (general population) when used with
approved accessories supplied with or designed for this product.
Use of other accesssories may not ensure compliance with FCC RF
exposure guidelines.
Antenna Care—Use only the supplied antenna. Unauthorized
antennas, modifications, or attachments could damage the radio
and may violate FCC regulations. Do not use any radio that has
a damaged antenna, because if it comes into contact with your
skin, a minor burn can result.
Electronic Devices—Most modern electronic equipment is
shielded from RF signals. However, certain equipment may not be
shielded against the RF signals from your wireless radio.
Pacemakers—The Health Industry Manufacturers Association
recommends that a minimum separation of six inches (6”) be
maintained between a handheld wireless radio and a pacemaker
to avoid potential interference with the pacemaker. These
recommendations are consistent with the independent research by
and recommendations of Wireless Technology Research. Persons
with pacemakers should ALWAYS keep the radio more than six
inches from their pacemaker when the radio is turned on, should
not carry the radio in a breast pocket, should use the ear opposite

120 Rino® 530 Owner’s Manual
PRELIMINARY
APPENDIX > WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS
the pacemaker to minimize the potential for interference, and
should turn the radio off immediately if you have any reason to
suspect that interference is taking place.
Hearing Aids—Some digital wireless radios may interfere with
some hearing aids. In the event of such interference, you may want
to consult your hearing aid manufacturer to discuss alternatives.
Other Medical Devices—If you use any other personal medical
device, consult the manufacturer of your device to determine if it is
adequately shielded from external RF energy. Your physician may
be able to assist you in obtaining this information.
Turn your radio OFF in health care facilities when any regulations
posted in these areas instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health
care facilities may be using equipment that could be sensitive to
external RF energy.
Vehicles—RF signals may affect improperly installed or
inadequately shielded electronic systems in motor vehicles. Check
with the manufacturer or its representative regarding your vehicle.
You should also consult the manufacturer of any equipment that
has been added to your vehicle.
Posted Facilities—Turn your radio OFF in any facility where
posted notices so require.
Commercial Aircraft—Many commercial airlines prohibit the use
of FRS radios on board. Switch OFF your radio before boarding an
aircraft or check the airline rules.
Blasting Areas—To avoid interfering with blasting operations,
turn your radio 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 radio OFF
and do not remove your battery when you are in any area with a
potentially explosive atmosphere. Obey all signs and instructions.
Sparks from your battery 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 gasoline
stations, below deck on boats, fuel or 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.
