Product Safety and RF Exposure for Portable Two-Way Radios Compli-
ance with RF Energy Exposure Standards
NOTICE: This radio is intended for use in occupational/controlled applications
where users have been made aware of the potential for exposure and can
exercise control over their exposure. This radio device is NOT authorized for
general population, consumer or similar use.
BEFORE USING THIS RADIO, READ THE TRAINING MATERIAL BELOW
WHICH CONTAINS IMPORTANT OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS FOR SAFE
USAGE AND RF ENERGY AWARENESS AND CONTROL INFORMATION
FOR COMPLIANCE WITH RF ENERGY EXPOSURE LIMITS IN APPLICA-
BLE NATIONAL AND INTERNATIONAL STANDARDS.
Federal Communication Commission (FCC) Regulations
The FCC has established limits for safe exposure to radio frequency (RF)
emissions from portable two-way radios. The FCC requires manufacturers
to demonstrate compliance with RF exposure limits before portable two-way
radios can be marketed in the U.S. When two-way radios are approved for
occupational/controlled environment exposure limits, the FCC requires users
to be fully aware of, and exercise control over, their exposure. Awareness and
control of RF exposure can be accomplished by the use of labels, or by educa-
tion and training through appropriate means such as information and instruc-
tions in user manuals or safety booklets. Your Advanced Wireless Commu-
nications’ two-way radio has an RF exposure information label in the battery
compartment. The training material below includes useful information about
RF exposure and helpful instructions on how to control your RF exposure.
Your Advanced Wireless Communications two-way radio is designed and
tested to comply with a number of national and international standards and
guidelines (listed below) regarding human exposure to RF electromagnetic
energy. In terms of measuring RF energy for compliance with FCC exposure
guidelines, your radio radiates measurable RF energy only while it is transmit-
ting (during talking), not when it is receiving (listening) or in standby mode.
Compliance and Control Guidelines and Operating Instructions for Portable
Two-Way Radios
To control your exposure and ensure compliance with the occupational/con-
trolled environment exposure limits, always adhere to the following proce-
dures:
* Transmit no more than 50% of the time. To transmit (talk), push the Push-
To-Talk (PTT) button. To receive calls, release the PTT button. Transmitting
50% of the time or less is important since the radio generates measurable
RF energy exposure only when transmitting (in terms of measuring standards
compliance).
* For body-worn operation, always place the radio in an AWC approved belt-
clip or similar accessory that contains no metallic components and provides
a minimum separation distance of 1.3 cm between the back of the radio and
the user’s body. AWC approved accessories, antennas, and device combi-
nations comply with the occupational/controlled environment RF exposure
limits. Using non-AWC approved accessories may result in exposure levels
which exceed the FCC’s occupational/controlled environment RF exposure
