Potentially Explosive Atmosphere
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 marked clearly. Potential 
areas may include: fueling areas 
(such as gasoline stations); below 
deck on boats; fuel or chemical 
transfer or storage facilities;

1.  Do wireless phones pose a 
health hazard?
The available scientific evidence 
does not show that any health 
problems are associated with using 
wireless phones. There is no proof, 
however, that wireless phones are 
absolutely safe. Wireless phones 
emit low levels of Radio Frequency 
(RF) energy in the microwave 
range while being used. They also 
emit very low levels of RF when in 
standby mode. Whereas high levels 
of RF can produce health effects 
(by heating tissue), exposure to 
low level...

•  Cooperate in providing users of wireless phones with the best 
possible information on possible 
effects of wireless phone use on 
human health.
The FDA belongs to an interagency 
working group of the federal 
agencies that have responsibility 
for different aspects of RF safety 
to ensure coordinated efforts at 
the federal level. The following 
agencies belong to this working 
group:
•  National Institute for  Occupational Safety and Health
• Environmental Protection  Agency
