Safety Information and Warnings

Safety Information and Warnings

WARNING

Information on Safe Operation

Read This Information Before Using Your Oricom Radio.

Radio Antenna

Do not use any radio that has a damaged antenna. If 

a damaged antenna comes in contact with the skin, a 

minor burn may result.
Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments 

could damage the radio and violate compliance. Do NOT 

change or modify the antenna.
Do NOT hold the antenna when the radio is “IN USE.” 

Holding the antenna reduces range and may cause 

bodily harm.

Safety and general use whilst in a vehicle

Check the State and Federal laws and regulations 

regarding the use of two way radios in the area where 

you drive, and always obey them.

For Vehicles fitted with Air Bags

Do not place your radio in the area over an air bag or in 

the air bag deployment area. Air bags inflate with great 

force. If a radio is placed in the air bag deployment area 

and the air bag inflates, the radio may be propelled with 

great force and cause serious injury to the occupants of 

the vehicle.

Batteries

All batteries can cause property damage and/or bodily 

injury such as burns if conductive material such as 

jewelry, keys, or beaded chains touches exposed 

terminals. The material may complete an electrical 

circuit (short circuit) and become quite hot. Exercise 

care in handling any charged battery, particularly when 

placing it inside a pocket, purse, or other container with 

metal objects.
Do not replace or charge batteries in a potentially 

explosive atmosphere. Contact sparking may occur 

while installing or removing batteries and cause an 

explosion.
