PRECAUTIONS
CAUTION:
Please observe the following precautions to prevent personal injury, fire, and
transceiver damage.
•
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 exposure compliance
requirements to be exceeded. The radio is transmitting when the front panel of the
radio displays the word “TRANSMIT”. The radio is placed in transmit mode by
pressing the Push-to-Talk (PTT) button on the radio’s microphone and receiving a
grant to transmit from the repeater.
•
DO NOT
attempt to configure the transceiver while driving; it is dangerous.
•
DO NOT
modify the transceiver for any reason.
•
DO NOT
expose the transceiver to long periods of direct sunlight, nor place it near
heating appliances.
•
DO NOT
place the transceiver in excessively dusty, humid or wet areas, or on
unstable surfaces.
•
If an abnormal odor or smoke is detected coming from the transceiver, turn OFF the
power immediately. If the unit does not turn OFF, remove the power source. Contact
your ComSpace dealer.
