Safety and General Information
Important Information on Safe and Efficient Operation Read
This Information Before Using Your Radio.
Transmit and Receive Procedure
Your two-way radio contains a transmitter and a receiver. To control your exposure and ensure compliance with the
general population/uncontrolled environment exposure limits, always adhere to the following procedure:
Transmit no more than 50% of the time.
To transmit (talk), press the Push to Talk (PTT) button.
To receive calls, release the PTT button.
Transmitting 50% of the time, or less, is important because the radio generates measurable RF energy exposure only
when transmitting (in terms of measuring standards compliance).
To assure optimal radio performance and make sure human exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic energy is within
the guidelines set forth in the above standards, always adhere to the following procedures.
Portable Radio Operation and EME Exposure
Antenna Care
Use only the supplied or an approved replacement antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or
attachments could damage the radio and may violate FCC regulations.
DO NOT hold the antenna when the radio is “IN USE.” Holding the antenna affects the effective
range.
Two-way Radio Operation
When using your radio as a traditional two-way radio, hold the radio in a vertical position with the microphone 1 to 2
inches (2.5 to 5 cm) away from the lips.
Body-worn Operation
To maintain compliance with FCC/Health Canada RF exposure guidelines, if you wear a radio on your body when
transmitting, always place the radio in a supplied or approved clip, holder, holster, case, or body harness for this product.
Use of non-approved accessories may exceed FCC/Health Canada RF exposure guide lines.
If you do not use one of the supplied or approved body worn accessories, and are not using the radio held in the normal
use position, ensure the radio and its antenna are at least 1 inch (2.5 cm) from your body when transmitting.
Electromagnetic Interference/Compatibility
Note: Nearly every electronic device is susceptible to electromagnetic interference(EMI) if inadequately shielded,
designed or otherwise configured for electromagnetic compatibility.
Facilities
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 may be using equipment that is sensitive to external RF
energy.
Aircraft
When instructed to do so, 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.
Medical Devices - Pacemakers
The Advanced Medical Technology Association recommends that a minimum separation of 6 inches (15 cm) be
maintained between a handheld wireless radio and a pacemaker. These recommendations are consistent with the
independent research by, and recommendations of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
Persons with pacemakers should:
ALWAYS keep the radio more than 6 inches (15 cm) from their pacemaker when the radio is turned ON.
Not carry the radio in the breast pocket.
Use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for interference.
Turn the radio OFF immediately if you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place.
Medical Devices - Hearing Aids
Some digital wireless radios may interfere with some hearing aids. In the event of such interference, you may want to
consult your hearing aid manufacturer to discuss alternatives.
Other Medical Devices
If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of your device to determine if it is adequately
shielded from RF energy. Your physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this information.
Safety and General Use While Driving
Check the laws and regulations on the use of radios in the area where you drive. Always obey them. When using your
radio while driving, please:
Give full attention to driving and to the road.
Use hands-free operation, if available.
Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call if driving conditions so require.
Operational Warnings
For Vehicles with an Air Bag
Do not place a portable radio in the area over an air bag or in the air bag deployment area. Air bags inflate with great
force. If a portable radio is placed in the air bag deployment area and the air bag inflates, the radio may be propelled with
great force and cause serious injury to occupants of the vehicle.
Potentially Explosive Atmospheres
Turn off your radio prior to entering any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere, unless it is a radio type especially
qualified for use in such areas as “Intrinsically Safe.”
Do not remove, install, or charge batteries in such areas. Sparks in a potentially explosive atmosphere can cause an
explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death.
Note: The areas with potentially explosive atmospheres referred to above include fueling areas such as below decks on
boats, fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities, areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as
grain, dust, or metal powders, and any other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle
engine. Areas with potentially explosive atmospheres are often but not always posted.
Blasting Caps and Areas
To avoid possible interference with blasting operations, turn off your radio when you are near electrical blasting caps, in
a blasting area, or in areas posted: “Turn off two-way radio.” Obey all signs and instructions.
Operational Cautions
Antennas
Do not use any portable radio that has a damaged antenna. If a damaged antenna comes into contact with your skin, a
minor burn can result.
Batteries
All batteries can cause property damage and/or bodily injury such as burns if a conductive material such as jewelry, keys,
or beaded chains touch exposed terminals. The conductive material may complete an electrical circuit (short circuit) and
become quite hot. Exercise care in handling any charged battery, particularly when placing it inside a pocket, purse, or
other container with metal objects.
Battery Charger Safety Instructions
Save these Instructions
1. Do not expose the charger to rain or snow.
2. Do not operate or disassemble the charger if it has received a sharp blow, or has been dropped or damaged in any
way.
3. Never alter the AC cord or plug provided with the unit. If the plug will not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet
installed by a qualified electrician. An improper condition can result in a risk of electric shock.
4. To reduce the risk of damage to the cord or plug, pull the plug rather than the cord when disconnecting the charger
from the AC receptacle.
5. To reduce the risk of electric shock, unplug the charger from the outlet before attempting any maintenance or
cleaning.
6. Use of an attachment not recommended or sold by Service Center may result in a risk of fire, electric shock, or
personal injury.
7. Please turn off the radio before charging.
