Your
KYD
radio
generates
RF
electromagnetic
energy
during
transmit
mode.
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
“General
Population”
in
an
uncontrolled
environment.
This
radio
has
been
tested
and
complies
with
the
FCC
RF
exposure
limits
for
“Occupational
Use
Only”.
In
addition,
your
KYD
radio
complies
with
the
following
Standards
and
Guidelines
with
regard
to
RF
energy
and
electromagnetic
energy
levels
and
evaluation
of
such
levels
for
exposure
to
humans:
FCC OET Bulletin 65 Edition 97-01 Supplement C, Evaluating Compliance with FCC Guidelines for Human Exposure to
Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Fields.
American National Standards Institute (C95.1-1992), IEEE Standard for Safety Levels with Respect to Human Exposure
to Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Fields, 3 kHz to 300 GHz.
American National Standards Institute (C95.3-1992), IEEE Recommended Practice for the Measurement of Potentially
Hazardous Electromagnetic Fields– RF and Microwave.
The following accessories are authorized for use with this product. Use of accessories other than those (listed in the
instruction) specified may result in RF exposure levels exceed the FCC requirements for wireless RF exposure.
To
ensure
that
your
expose
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 damaged 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
antenna specifically authorized by the manufacturer for use with this radio.
DO NOT
transmits for more than 50% of total radio use time (“50%duty cycle”). Transmitting more than 50% of the time
can cause FCC RF exposure compliance requirements to be exceeded. The radio is transmitting when the “TX indicator”
lights red. You can cause the radio to transmit by pressing the “PTT” switch.
ALWAYS
keep the antenna at least 2.5 cm (1 inch) away from the body
or face
when transmitting and only use the HYT belt-clip
which is listed in instructions when attaching the radio to your belt, etc., to ensure FCC RF exposure compliance
requirements are not exceeded. To provide the recipients of your transmission the best sound quality, hold the antenna
at least 5 cm (2 inches) from your mouth, and slightly off to one side.
T
he
information
listed
above
provides
the
user
with
the
information
needed
to
make
him
or
her
aware
of
RF
exposure,
and
what
to
do
to
as
‐
sure
that
this
radio
operates
with
the
FCC
RF
exposure
limits
of
this
radio.
Electromagnetic
Interference/Compatibility
During
transmissions,
your
KYD
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
The
radio
transmitter
is
used
in
situations
in
which
persons
are
exposed
as
consequence
of
their
employment
provided
those
persons
are
fully
aware
of
the
potential
for
exposure
and
can
exercise
control
over
their
exposure.
