RADIO FREQUENCY ENERGY SAFETY INFORMATION
Your 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 intended for use by the “General Population” in an uncontrolled
environment.
This radio has been tested and complies with the FCC RF exposure limits for
“
Occupational
Use Only
”
. In addition, your XRADIO radio complies with the following Standards and
Guidelines with regard to RF energy and electromagnetic energy levels and evaluation of such
levels for exposure to humans:
■
FCC OET Bulletin 65 Edition 97-01 Supplement C, Evaluating Compliance with FCC
Guidelines for Human Exposure to Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Fields.
■
American National Standards Institute (C95.1-1992), IEEE Standard for Safety Levels with
Respect to Human Exposure to Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Fields, 3 kHz to 300 GHz.
■
American National Standards Institute (C95.3-1992), IEEE Recommended Practice for the
Measurement of Potentially Hazardous Electromagnetic Fields
–
RF and Microwave.
■
The following accessories are authorized for use with this product. Use of accessories other
than those (listed in the instruction) specified may result in RF exposure levels exceeding the
FCC requirements for wireless RF exposure. To ensure that your expose to RF
electromagnetic energy is within the FCC allowable limits for occupational use, always adhere
to the following guidelines:
■
DO NOT operate the radio without a proper antenna attached, as this may damaged the
radio and may also cause you to exceed FCC RF exposure limits. A proper antenna is the
antenna supplied with this radio by the manufacturer or antenna specifically authorized by the
manufacturer for use with this radio.
■
DO NOT transmits for more than 50% of total radio use time (
“
50%duty cycle
”
). Transmitting
more than 50% of the time can cause FCC RF exposure compliance requirements to be
exceeded. The radio is transmitting when the
“
TX indicator
”
lights red. You can cause the radio
to transmit by pressing the
“
PTT
”
switch.
■
ALWAYS keep the antenna at least 45 cm away from the body when transmitting to ensure
FCC RF exposure compliance requirements are not exceeded. The information listed above
provides the user with the information needed to make him or her aware of RF exposure, and
what to do to as-sure that this radio operates with the FCC RF exposure limits of this radio.
Electromagnetic Interference/Compatibility During transmissions, your XRADIO radio
generates RF energy that can possibly cause interference with other devices or systems. To
avoid such interference, turn off the radio in areas where signs are posted to do so. DO NOT
