WARNING
To avoid electromagnetic interference and/or compatibility conflicts
•
Turn off your radio in any facility where posted notices instruct you to do so,
hospitals or health care facilities (Pacemakers, Hearing Aids and Other
Medical Devices) may be using equipment that is sensitive to external RF
energy.
• Turn off your radio when on board an aircraft. Any use of a radio must be
in accordance with applicable regulations per airline crew instructions.
Protect your hearing:
• Use the lowest volume necessary to do your job.
• Turn up the volume only if you are in noisy surroundings.
• Turn down the volume before adding headset or earpiece.
• Limit the amount of time you use headsets or earpieces at high volume.
•
When using the radio without a headset or earpiece, do not place the
radio's speaker directly against your ear.
•
Use careful with the earphone maybe possible excessive sound pressure
from earphones and headphones can cause hearing loss.
Note: Exposure to loud noises from any source for extended
periods of time may temporarily or permanently affect
your hearing. The louder the radio's volume, the less
time is required before your hearing could be affected.
Hearing damage from loud noise is sometimes undetectable at first
and can have a cumulative effect.
WARNING
Avoid Burns
Antennas
•
Do not use any portable radio that has a damaged antenna. If a damaged
antenna comes into contact with the skin when the radio is in use, a minor
burn can result.
Batteries (If appropriate)
•
When the conductive material such as jewelry, keys or chains touch
exposed terminals of the batteries, may complete an electrical circuit
(short circuit the battery) and become hot to cause bodily injury such as
burns. Exercise care in handling any battery, particularly when placing it
inside a pocket, purse or other container with metal objects.
Long transmission
•
When the transceiver is used for long transmissions, the radiator and
chassis will become hot.
WARNING
Safety Operation
Forbid

not use charger outdoors or in moist environments, use only in dry
locations/conditions.
• Do
not disassemble the charger, that may result in risk of electrical shock or fire.
• Do not operate the charger if it has been broken or damaged in any way.
• Do not place a portable radio in the area over an air bag or in the air bag
deployment area. The radio may be propelled with great force and cause
serious injury to occupants of the vehicle when the air bag inflates.
