Potentially Explosive Atmospheres
• Turn you radio off when in any area with a potentially
explosive atmosphere, unless it is a type especially
qualified for such use (for example, by intrinsic safe
approvals)
• Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire
resulting in injury or even death.
Blasting caps areas
• To avoid possible interference with blasting operations
turn your radio OFF near electrical blasting caps or in a
„blasting area" or in areas posted: „Turn off any two way
radio." Obey all signs and instructions.
Use While Driving
• Check the laws regarding the use of radios while driving
and always obey them.
• • In some European countries it is forbidden for the
driver to keep any microphone in hands or to operate a
radio during driving.
• • Some countries (like Germany) make a difference
between mobile phones and 2 way radios. Mobile phones
are only allowed to be operated in handsfree mode, while
CB & commercial two way radios are still allowed even with
hand microphone
