MAMBO2 HARDWARE MANUAL VERSION 1.0.1
2.10 Potentially explosive atmospheres
Turn your MAMBO2 device OFF when in any area with a potentially explosive
atmosphere. It is rare, but your modems or their accessories could generate sparks.
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 fuelling areas such as petrol stations; below decks on boats;
fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities; and areas where the air contains
chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust or metal powders.
Do not transport or store flammable gas, liquid or explosives, in the compartment of
your vehicle, which contains your modem or accessories.
Before using your modem in a vehicle powered by liquefied petroleum gas (such
as propane or butane) ensure that the vehicle complies with the relevant fire and
safety regulations of the country in which the vehicle is to be used.
