Appendix
Using your device while flying in
aircraft is prohibited. Turn off your
device before boarding an aircraft.
The use of wireless teledevices in
an aircraft may be dangerous to the
operation of the aircraft, disrupt the
wireless telephone network, and
may be illegal.
Potentially explosive
environments
Switch off your device when in any
area with a potentially explosive
atmosphere, and obey all signs and
instructions. Potentially explosive
atmospheres include areas where
you would normally be advised to
turn off your vehicle engine. Sparks
in such areas could cause an
explosion or fire resulting in bodily
injury or even death. Turn off the
device at refueling points such as
near gas pumps at service stations.
Observe restrictions on the use of
radio equipment in fuel depots,
storage and distribution areas,
chemical plants or where blasting
operations are in progress. Areas
with a potentially explosive
atmosphere are often, but not
always, clearly marked. They
include below deck on boats,
chemical transfer or storage
facilities and areas where the air
contains chemicals or particles such
as grain, dust, or metal powders.
You should check with the
manufacturers of vehicles using
liquefied petroleum gas (such as
propane or butane) to determine if
this device can be safely used in
their vicinity.
