Tait TP9100 Series P25, User Manual, Page: 11 / 168

For your safety 11
radio radiates more energy when it is transmitting
than when it is receiving.
■ When listening and talking on the radio, hold it upright
in front of your face so that it is at least one inch
(2.5 cm) away from any part of your face. Keeping the
radio at the recommended distance is important
because exposure to RF decreases rapidly the further
away the antenna is from your body.
■ Keep the antenna at least one inch (2.5 cm) from your
face at all times.
■ If you wear your radio, you must always put it in a
carrying accessory that has been specifically
approved by Tait for this radio. Using non-
approved body-worn accessories may mean you
expose yourself to higher levels of RF than recom-
mended by the FCC’s occupational/controlled
environment RF exposure limits.
■ Ensure you only use Tait-approved antennas, batter-
ies, and accessories.
For more information on what RF energy is and how to
control your exposure to it, visit the FCC website at
