Potentially Explosive Atmospheres
Areas with potentially explosive atmospheres are often, but not always, posted and can
include fueling areas, such as below decks on boats, fuel or chemical transfer or
storage facilities, or areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain
dust, or metal powders.
When you are in such an area, turn off your mobile device, and do not remove, install, or
charge batteries. In such areas, sparks can occur and cause an explosion or fire.
