WARNING! FCC RF EXPOSURE REQUIREMENTS
This Radio has been tested and complies with the Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) RF exposure limits for Occupational Use/Controlled expo-
sure environment. In addition, it complies with the following Standards and
Guidelines:
FCC 96-326, Guidelines for Evaluating the Environmental Effects of Ra-
dio-Frequency Radiation.
FCC OET Bulletin 65 Edition 97-01 (2001) Supplement C, Evaluating Com-
pliance with FCC Guidelines for Human Exposure to Radio Frequency
Electromagnetic Fields.
ANSI/IEEE C95.1-1992, IEEE Standard for Safety Levels with Respect to
Human Exposure to Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Fields, 3 kHz to
300 GHz.
ANSI/IEEE C95.3-1992, IEEE Recommended Practice for the Measure-
ment of Potentially Hazardous Electromagnetic Fields - RF and Microwave.
WARNING:
This 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 in-
tended for use by the General Population in an uncontrolled environment.
CAUTION:
To ensure that your expose to RF electromagnetic energy is within the FCC
allowable limits for occupational use, always adhere to the following guide-
lines:
This radio is NOT approved for use by the general population in an uncon-
trolled exposure environment. This radio is restricted to occupational use,
work related operations only where the radio operator must have the knowl-
edge to control his or her RF exposure conditions.
When transmitting, hold the radio in a vertical position with its microphone
1 inche (2.5 cm) away from your mouth and keep the antenna at least 1
inches (2.5 cm) away from your head and body.
The radio must be used with a maximum operating duty cycle not exceed-
ing 50%, in typical Push-to-Talk configurations.
DO NOT transmit for more than 50% of total radio use time (50% duty
cycle). Transmitting more than 50% of the time can cause FCC RF expo-
sure compliance requirements to be exceeded.
