SAFETY TRAINING

 INFORMATION

Land-mobile version only

WARNING: 

This  radio  generates  RF  electromagnetic  energy  during  transmission. 
This  radio  is  designed  for  and  classified  as  “Occupational  Use  Only”, 
meaning  it  must  be  used  only  during  the  course  of  employment  by 
individuals  aware  of  the  hazards,  and  the  ways  to  minimize  such 
hazards. This radio is NOT intended for use by the “GeneralPopulation” 
in an uncontrolled environment.

• 

For  compliance  with  FCC  and  Industry  Canada  RF  Exposure 

Requirements,  the  transmitter  antenna  installation  shall  comply  with 
the following two conditions:

1. 

The transmitter antenna gain shall not exceed 0 dBi.

2. 

The antenna is required to be located outside of a vehicle and kept 

at  a  distance  of  63  centimeters  or  more  between  the  transmitting 
antenna of this device and any persons during operation. For small 
vehicle as worst case, the antenna shall be located on the roof top 
at any place on the centre line along the vehicle in order to achieve 
63 centimeters separation distance. In order to ensure this distance 
is met, the installation of the antenna must be mounted at least 63 
centimeters  away  from  the  nearest  edge  of  the  vehicle  in  order  to 
protect against exposure to bystanders.

CAUTION:

To  ensure  that  your  exposure  to  RF  electromagnetic  energy  is  within 
the  FCC  allowable  limits  for  occupational  use,  always  adhere  to  the 
following guidelines:

• 

DO NOT operate the radio without a proper antenna attached, as this 

may  damage  the  radio  and  may  also  cause  you  to  exceed  FCC  RF 
exposure  limits. A  proper  antenna  is  the  antenna  supplied  with  this 

radio by the manufacturer or an antenna specifically authorized by the 

manufacturer for use with this radio.

 

DO  NOT  transmit  for  more  than  50%  during  the  time  of  employment 

(50%  duty  cycle  or  less). Transmitting  excessive  amount  of  time  can 
cause RF exposure compliance requirements to be exceeded. Please 
carefully read this instruction manual to learn how to transmit and stop 
transmitting before starting to use it.

Electromagnetic Interference/Compatibility

During  transmissions,  your  radio  generates  RF  energy  that  can 
possibly  cause  interference  with  other  devices  or  systems.  To  avoid 
such  interference,  turn  off  the  radio  in  areas  where  signs  are  posted  to 
do  so.  DO  NOT  operate  the  transmitter  in  areas  that  are  sensitive  to 
electromagnetic radiation such as hospitals, aircraft, and blasting sites.

Occupational/Controlled Use

This  product  is  used  in  situations  that  users  are  exposed  to  RF  as 
consequence  of their  employment provided those  users are fully  aware 
of the potential RF hazards and can exercise control over their exposure.

• 

This transceiver is NOT ATEX approved and NOT intended for the use 

in hazardous explosive atmospheres.

PC PROGRAMMING 

NOTE: The utility software may be available to distributors/dealers only. 
USB  programming  cable  is  required. The  manufacturer  will  not  release 
the  software  to  unauthorized  party  so  please  contact  your  dealer  for 
details.
