Safety Information and Warnings
WARNING
Radio Operation and EME Exposure
Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments
could damage the radio and violate compliance.
Do NOT hold the antenna when the radio is “IN USE.”
Holding the antenna reduces the effective range.
Do not use the radio if the antenna is damaged. If a
damaged antenna makes contact with your skin, a
minor burn can result.
If you wear a radio on your body when transmitting,
always fit the radio on the belt clip (supplied). Always
ensure the radio and it's antenna are at least 5cm from
your body when transmitting.
Electromagnetic Interference/Compatibility
Nearly every electronic device is susceptible to
electromagnetic interference (EMI). To avoid the
possibility of electromagnetic interference and/or
compatibility conflicts, turn off your radio in any location
where posted notices instruct you to do so such as
health care facilities.
Aircraft
When instructed to do so, turn off your radio when
onboard an aircraft. Any use of a radio must be in
accordance with applicable regulations per airline crew
instructions.
