4 SAFETY / WARNING INFORMATION
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Please read this manual carefully to become familiar with the features
of this transceiver before using it for the first time.
The installation of this equipment should be made in such a manner as
to respect the EC recommended electromagnetic field exposure limits
(1999/519/EC).
The maximum RF power available from this device is 25 W. The antenna
should be mounted as high as possible for maximum efficiency and that
this installation height should be at least 5 meters above ground (or acces-
sible) level. In the case that an antenna can not be installed at a reasonable
height, then the transmitter should neither be continuously operated for long
periods if any person is within 5 metres of the antenna, nor operated at all if
any person is touching the antenna. non compliance with these recommen-
dations and transmitting for more than 50% of the total radio use time (50
% duty cycle) may cause RF complaince exposure requirements to be be
exceeded.
In all cases any possible risk depends on the transmitter being activated for
long periods (actual recommendation limits are specified as an average of
6 minutes). Normally the transmitter is not active for long periods of time.
Some radio licenses will require that a timer circuit automatically cuts the
transmitter after 1 - 2 minutes.
Do not transmit without an antenna connected to the radio. When transmit-
ting speak into the microphone holding it between 1.5 cm and 5 cm from
your mouth.
The radio must be used with a maximum operating duty cycle not exceeding
10 % in normal PTT configurations. Do not transmit for more than 10 % of
the total radio use time (1:9 duty cycle).
