Appendix 153
Turn Off Your Device in Dangerous Areas
BLASTING AREAS
To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your device 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 device OFF when in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere and obey all signs and

areas such as gas stations; below deck on boats; fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities; vehicles using
liquefied petroleum gas (such as propane or butane); areas where the air contains chemicals or articles, such
as grain, dust, or metal powders; and any other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your
vehicle’s engine.
