7. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
7.1. Damage antenna
Do not use any communicator that has a damaged Antenna. If a damaged antenna comes in contact with the skin, a minor burn may result.
7.2. Batteries
As batteries can cause property damage and/or bodily injury such as burns if conductive material such as jewelry, keys or beaded chains touches exposed terminals. The 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. Do not replace or charge batteries in a potentially explosive atmosphere. Contact sparking may occur while installing or removing batteries and cause an explosion.
7.3. For vehicles with air bag
Do not place your Communicator in the area over an air bag or in the air bad deployment area. Air bags inflate with great force. If a communicator is placed in the bag deployment area and the air bag inflates, the communicator may be propelled with great force and cause serious injury to the occupants of vehicle.
7.4. Potentially Explosive Atmospheres
Turn your communicator off when in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere, unless it is a type specifically qualified for such use. Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death.
ENGLISH
7.5. Blasting caps and areas
To avoid possible interference with blasting operation, turn your communicator off near electrical blasting caps or in a ‘blasting area’ or in areas
posted: 'Turn off two way radio'. Obey all signs and instructions.
NOTE : Areas with potentially explosive atmospheres are often, but not always, clearly marked. They include fueling areas such as below deck 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.
7.6. Electromagnetic Interference/Compatibility
Nearly every electronic device is susceptible to electromagnetic interference (EMI) if inadequately shielded, designed or otherwise configured for electromagnetic compatibility.
Turn your unit OFF in any facilities where posted notices instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may be using equipment that is sensitive to external RF energy.
Turn your unit OFF when on board an aircraft when instructed to do so. Any use of the unit must be accordance with airline regulations or crew instructions.
