Safety _
Damaged Antenna
Do not use any PMR that has a
damaged antenna. If a damaged
antenna comes in contact with the skin,
a minor bum may result.
Batteries
All 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.
For Vehicles with an Air Bag
Do not place your PMR in the area over
an air bag or in the air bag deployment
area. Ar bags inflate with great force.

10
great force and cause serious injury to
the occupants of the vehicle.
Potentially Explosive Atmospheres
Turn your PMR OFF when in any area
with a potentially explosive atmosphere,
unless it is a type especially qualified
for such use (for example, Factory
Mutual Approved). Sparks in such
areas could cause an explosion or fire
resulting in injury or even death.
Batteries
Do not replace or charge 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 your PMR
OFF near electrical blasting caps or in
a “blasting area" or In areas posted:
‘Turn off the 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
Cleaning and Care
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.
