NEVER place radioactive components in your pocket.
Use extreme care NOT to break radioactive components while handling them.
NEVER remove radioactive components from cartons until you are ready to use them.
If any of these components are broken, notify the local RPO immediately. The RPO will survey
the immediate area for radiological contamination and will supervise the removal of broken
components.
The above listed radioactive components will not be repaired or disassembled.
Disposal of broken, unserviceable, or unwanted radioactive components will be accomplished in
accordance with the instructions in AR 755-15.
