Vehicles and vessels
RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded
electronic systems in motor vehicles. Check with the manufacturer or its
representative regarding your vehicle. You should also consult the
manufacturer of any equipment that has been added to your vehicle or
vessel.
Posted facilities
Turn your phone off in any facility where posted notices so require.
Aircraft
FCC regulations prohibit using your phone while in the air. Switch off your
phone before boarding an aircraft.
Blasting areas
To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your phone off when in
a “blasting area” or in areas posted: “Turn off two-way radio”. Obey all
signs and instructions.
Potentially explosive atmospheres
Turn your phone off when in any area with a potentially explosive
atmosphere and obey all signs and instructions. Sparks in such areas could
cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death.
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often but not always
clearly marked. They include fueling areas such as gasoline stations; fuel or
chemical transfer or storage facilities; vehicles using liquefied petroleum
gas (such as propane or butane); 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.
