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

as gas stations; below deck on boats; fuel or chemical trans-
fer or storage facilities; vehicles using liquefied petroleum
gas (such as propane or butane); areas where the air con-
tains 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’s engine.
