This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in residential installation. This device uses and can generate radio frequency energy. If not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, it may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that the interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception (which can be determined by turning the unit off and on), the user is encouraged to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: The FRS/GMRS is the newest generation in personal two-way communications. The FRS/GMRS operates in a licensed radio band (FCC license is needed for its operation), on any of the GMRS channels. Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver. Connect the equipment to an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected. Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help. FCC INFORMATION: This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:(1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. Privacy of communications may not be ensured when using this equipment. FCC WARNING: This equipment generates or uses radio frequency energy. Adjustment to this unit or replacement of any transmitter component (crystal, semiconductor, etc.) to this unit that could result in violation of the rules. SAFETY INFORMATION: Your wireless hand-held portable transceiver contains a low power transmitter. When the PUSH TO TALK (PTT) button is pushed it sends out radio frequency (RF) signals. The device is authorized to operate at a duty factor not to exceed 50%. In August 1996, the Federal Communications Commissions (FCC) adopted RF exposure guidelines with safety levels for hand-held wireless devices. The FRS316 is a lightweight, compact two-way radio that can be used up to about two miles with family or friends at parks, shopping malls, sporting events, concerts--any indoor or outdoor activity! The FRS316 is compatible with other brands utilizing the same frequency band (operating in the frequency range from 462.5625MHz to 462.7250MHz). The FRS316 is a 22-channel UHF two-way radio, featuring a multi-functional LCD panel (which indicates the current channel and various radio status icons). Other features also include electronic volume control and battery save circuitry. Please read this user's manual thoroughly to get the most out of your FRS316 two-way radio. CAUTION: To maintain compliance with the FCC's RF exposure guidelines hold the transmitter and ANTENNA at least 1 inch (2.5 cm) from your face and speak in a normal voice, with the ANTENNA pointed up and away from the face. If you wear the handset on your body while using the headset accessory, use only the supplied belt clip for this product and when transmitting, take it out of the belt to ensure that the ANTENNA is at least 1 inch (2.5 cm) from your body. Use only the supplied ANTENNA. Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments could damage the transmitter and may violate FCC regulations. NOTE: The maximum transmission range will vary depending on terrain and environment. Range will be greater in open fields, while the range is shorter within and around buildings or large structures.
