This two-way radio uses electromagnetic energy in the radio frequency (RF) 

spectrum to provide communications between two or more users over a distance. 

RF energy, which when used improperly, can cause biological damage. 
All Retevis two-way radios are designed, manufactured, and tested to ensure they 

meet government-established RF exposure levels. In addition, manufacturers also 

recommend specific operating instructions to users of two-way radios. These 

instructions are important because they inform users about RF energy exposure 

and provide simple procedures on how to control it.

Please refer to the following websites for more information on what RF energy 

exposure is and how to control your exposure to assure compliance with 

established RF exposure limits:http://www.who.int/en/

Local Government Regulations

When two-way radios are used as a consequence of employment, the Local 

Government Regulations requires users to be fully aware of and able to control 

their exposure to meet occupational requirements. Exposure awareness can be 

facilitated by the use of a product label directing users to specific user awareness 

information. Your Retevis two-way radio has a RF Exposure Product Label. Also, 

your Retevis user manual, or separate safety booklet includes information and 

operating instructions required to control your RF exposure and to satisfy
