SAFETY INFORMATION31 EnglishPotentially explosive atmospheres• Turn off your Two-Way radio when you are in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere, unless it is a radio type especially qualified for use in such areas (e.g. FM or Cenelec approved). Sparks in a potentially explosive atmosphere can cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death.Batteries• Do not replace or recharge batteries in a potentially explosive atmosphere. Contact sparking may occur while installing or removing batteries and cause an explosion.Blasting caps and areas• To avoid possible interference with blasting operations, turn off your radio when you are near electrical blasting caps. In a “blasting area” or in areas posted “turn off two-way radio”, obey all signs and instructions.Note: The areas with potentially explosive atmospheres referred to above include fuelling areas such as: below decks on boats; fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities; 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. Areas with potentially explosive atmospheres are often but not always posted.Operational CautionsDamaged antennas• Do not use any portable two-way radio that has a damaged antenna. If a damaged antenna comes into contact with your skin, a minor burn can result.Batteries• All batteries can cause property damage and/or bodily injury such as burns if a conductive material such as jewellery, keys or beaded chains touch exposed terminals. The conductive material may complete an electrical circuit (short circuit) and become quite hot. Exercise care in handling any charged battery, particularly when placing it inside a pocket, purse or other container with metal objects.!C a u t i o n#ELP_Display.book Page 31 Friday, May 14, 1999 5:39 PM
