RF Energy Exposure Awareness and Control Information and Operational Instructions for
Occupational Use
Notice: this radio is intended for use in occupational/controlled conditions where users have full
knowledge of their exposure and can exercise control over their exposure to meet the
occupational limits in FCC and International standards. This radio device is NOT authorized for
general population consumer use.
Federal Communication Commission (FCC) Regulations
When Digital 3W Portable Radio is used as a consequence of employment, the FCC requires users
to be fully aware of and able to control their exposure to meet occupational requirement.
Exposure awareness can be facilitated by the use of a product label directing users to specific
user awareness information. Your Digital 3W Portable Radio has a RF Exposure Product Label.
Also, your Digital 3W Portable Radio Radio user manual includes information and operating
instructions required to control your RF exposure and satisfy compliance requirements.
Compliance with RF Exposure Standards
Your Digital 3W Portable Radio is designed and tested to compliance with a number of national
and international standards and guidelines for human exposure to radio frequency
electromagnetic energy. This radio compliance with the IEEE (FCC) and ICNIRP exposure limits for
occupational/controlled RF exposure environments at operating duty factors of up to 50% talk –
50% listen and is approved for occupational use only. In terms of measuring RF energy for
compliance with these exposure guidelines, your radio generates measureable RF energy only
while it is transmitting (during talking), not when it is receiving (listening) or in standby mode.
Your Digital 3W Portable Radio complies with the following RF energy exposure standards and
guidelines:
●
United States Federal Communications Commission (FCC), Code of Federal Regulations;
●
Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) C95.1
●
International Commission on Non
-
lionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP)

Operations
To control your exposure and ensure compliance with the occupational/controlled environment
exposure limits, always adhere to the following procedures;
●
DO NOT remove the RF Exposure Label from the device
●
User awareness instructions should accompany device when transferred to other users.
Operational Instructions and Training Guidelines
To ensure optimal performance and compliance with the occupational/controlled environment
RF energy exposure limits in the above standards and guidelines, users should transmit no more
than 50% of the time and always adhere to the following procedures;
●
In front of the face, hold the radio in a vertical position with microphone (and other parts of
the radio including the antenna) at least one inch (2.5 centimeters) away from the nose or
lips. Keep the radio at a proper distance is important to ensure compliance.
