1.2.1 RF Exposure Guidelines
To ensure that exposure to RF electromagnetic energy is within
the FCC
allowable limits for occupational use and/or the
exposure limit values in Annex A of EU Directive 2004/40/EC,
always adhere to the following guidelines:
• DO NOT operate the radio without a proper antenna attached, as this may
damage the radio and may also cause the FCC RF exposure limits and/or
the exposure limit values in Annex A of EU Directive 2004/40/EC to be
exceeded. A proper antenna is the antenna supplied with this radio by
Harris or an antenna specifically authorized by Harris for use with this
radio.
• 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 and/or the exposure limit values in
Annex A of EU Directive 2004/40/EC to be exceeded. The radio is
CAUTION

transmitting when the “TX” indicator appears in the display. The radio
will transmit by pressing the “PTT” (Push-To-Talk) button.
• ALWAYS transmit using low power when possible. In addition to
conserving battery charge, low power can reduce RF exposure.
• ALWAYS use Harris authorized accessories (antennas, batteries, belt
clips, speaker/mics, etc). Use of unauthorized accessories may cause the
FCC Occupational/Controlled Exposure RF compliance requirements
and/or the exposure limit values in Annex A of EU Directive 2004/40/EC
to be exceeded. (Refer to Table 1-1.)
• As noted in Table 1-1, ALWAYS keep the housing of the transmitter AT
LEAST 1.5 cm (0.59 inches) from the body and at least 2.5 cm (1.0 inch)
from the face when transmitting to ensure FCC RF exposure compliance
requirements and/or the exposure limit values in Annex A of EU
Directive 2004/40/EC are not exceeded. However, to provide the best
sound quality to the recipients of your transmission, Harris recommends
you hold the microphone at least 5 cm (2 inches) from mouth, and slightly
off to one side.

interference that may cause undesired operation of the device.
1.4 OPERATING TIPS
Antenna location and condition are important when operating a portable radio.
Operating the radio in low lying areas or terrain, under power lines or bridges,
inside of a vehicle or in a metal framed building can severely reduce the range
of the unit. Mountains can also reduce the range of the unit.
In areas where transmission or reception is poor, some improvement may be
obtained by ensuring the antenna is vertical. Moving a few yards in another
direction or moving to a higher elevation may also improve communications.
Vehicular operation can be aided with the use of an externally mounted
antenna.
Battery condition is another important factor in the trouble free operation of a
portable radio. Always properly charge the batteries.
1.4.1 Efficient Radio Operation
Keep the antenna in a vertical position when receiving or transmitting a
message.
Do NOT hold onto the antenna when the radio is powered
on.
1.4.1.1 Antenna Care and Replacement
Always keep the antenna at least 0.43 inches (1.5 cm) away
from the body and 1.0 inch (2.5 cm) from the face when
transmitting to ensure FCC RF exposure compliance
requirements are not exceeded.
Do not use the portable radio with a damaged or missing
antenna. A minor burn may result if skin comes into
contact with a
damaged antenna. Replace a damaged
antenna immediately. Operating a portable radio with the
antenna missing could cause personal injury, damage the
radio, and may violate FCC regulations.
WARNING
WARNING
WARNING
12 14221-1500-2010, Rev. E
Use only the supplied or approved antenna. Unauthorized
antennas, modifications, or attachments could cause damage to
the radio unit and may violate FCC regulations.
1.4.1.2 Electronic Devices
RF energy from portable radios may affect some electronic
equipment. Most modern electronic equipment in cars,
hospitals, homes, etc., are shielded from RF energy. However,
in areas in which you are instructed to turn off two-way radio
equipment, always observe the rules. If in doubt, turn it off!
1.4.1.3 Aircraft
Always turn off a portable radio before boarding any
aircraft!
• Use it on the ground only with crew permission.
• DO NOT use while in-flight!!
1.4.1.4 Electric Blasting Caps
To prevent accidental detonation of electric blasting caps,
DO NOT use two-way radios within 1000 feet of blasting
operations. Always obey the "Turn Off Two-Way Radios"
signs posted where electric blasting caps are being used.
(OSHA Standard: 1926.900)
1.4.1.5 Potentially Explosive Atmospheres
Areas with potentially explosive atmospheres are often,
but not always, clearly marked. These may be fuelling
areas, such as gas stations, fuel or chemical transfer or
storage facilities, and areas where the air contains
chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust, or metal
powders.
Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire
resulting in bodily injury or even death.
Turn OFF two-
way radios when in any area with a
potentially explosive atmosphere. It is rare, but not
impossible that a radio or its accessories could generate
sparks.

2.2 RENSEIGNEMENTS SUR LA FORMATION SUR
LA SÉCURITÉ
MISE EN GARDE
La radio portative Harris XG-25P produit de l’énergie
électromagnétique des RF lorsqu’
en mode de
transmission. Cette radio est conçue et classée pour une
« Utilisation professionnelle seulement
», ce qui signifie
qu’elle ne doit être utilisée que dans le cadre d’un emploi
par des individus conscients des risques et des moyens de
limiter ceux-ci. Cette radio N’EST PAS conçue pour une
utilisation par la « Population générale
» dans un
environnement non contrôlé.
La radio portative XG-25P a été testée et est conforme aux limites
d’exposition aux RF de la FCC pour une « Utilisation professionnelle
seulement ». De plus, cette radio Harris est conforme aux normes et directives
suivantes quant à l’énergie des RF et aux niveaux d’énergie
électromagnétique, ainsi qu’à l’évaluation de ces niveaux pour l’exposition
aux humains :
• Bulletin 65 du OET de la FCC, édition 97-01, supplément C, portant sur
l’évaluation de la conformité aux directives de la FCC quant à
l’exposition humaine aux champs électromagnétiques des
radiofréquences.
• American National Standards Institute (C95.1 – 1992), norme de l’IEEE
sur les niveaux sécuritaires d’exposition humaine aux champs
électromagnétiques des radiofréquences, 3 kHz à 300 GHz.
• American National Standards Institute (C95.3 – 1992), pratique
recommandée par l’IEEE pour la mesure des champs électromagnétiques
potentiellement dangereux – RF et micro-ondes.
2.2.1 Directives sur l’exposition aux RF
AVERTISSEMENT
Pour s’assurer que l’exposition à l’énergie électromagnétique
des RF se situe dans les limites acceptables de la FCC pour
l’
utilisation professionnelle, respectez toujours les directives
suivantes :
• N’utilisez PAS la radio sans qu’une antenne appropriée y soit connectée,
car ceci peut endommager la radio et également causer un dépassement
des limites d’exposition aux RF de la FCC. Une antenne appropriée est
celle fournie par Harris avec cette radio, ou une antenne spécifiquement
autorisée par Harris pour être utilisée avec cette radio.
14221-1500-2010, Rev. E 15
• Ne transmettez PAS pendant plus de 50 % de la durée d’utilisation totale
de la radio (« cycle de service de 50 % »). La transmission pendant plus
de 50 % du temps peut causer un dépassement des exigences de
conformité de la FCC en matière d’exposition aux RF. La radio transmet
lorsque l’indicateur « TX » apparaît sur l’affichage. La radio transmet
lorsqu’on appuie sur le bouton « PTT » (bouton de microphone).
• Transmettez TOUJOURS en basse puissance lorsque possible. En plus de
préserver la charge de la pile, une faible puissance réduit l’exposition aux
RF.
• Utilisez TOUJOURS des accessoires autorisés Harris (antennes, piles,
pinces de ceinture, haut-parleurs/micros, etc.). L’utilisation d’accessoires
non autorisés peut entraîner un dépassement des exigences de conformité
pour une exposition aux RF professionnelle ou contrôlée de la FCC.
(Reportez-vous à Tableau 2-1.)
• Tel qu’indiqué dans Tableau 2-1, conservez TOUJOURS l’appareil et son
antenne à AU MOINS 1,5 cm (0,59 po) du corps, et à au moins 2,5 cm
(1,0 po) du visage pendant la transmission, pour vous assurer de ne pas
dépasser les exigences de conformité de la FCC en matière d’exposition
aux RF. Cependant, pour offrir la meilleure qualité sonore aux auditeurs
de votre transmission, Harris recommande de tenir le microphone à au
moins 5 cm (2 po) de votre bouche et légèrement déplacé sur un côté.

2.4 CONSEILS D’UTILISATION
L’emplacement et l’état de l’antenne sont importants pour l’utilisation d’une
radio portative. L’utilisation de la radio dans des zones de faible élévation,
sous des lignes électriques ou des ponts, à l’intérieur d’un véhicule ou dans un
immeuble à ossature métallique, peut réduire la portée de l’appareil de
manière considérable. Les montagnes peuvent également réduire la portée de
l’unité.
Dans les zones où la transmission ou la réception est insatisfaisante, certaines
améliorations peuvent être obtenues en s’assurant que l’antenne est verticale.
Se déplacer de quelques mètres dans une autre direction ou à un emplacement
plus élevé peut également améliorer les communications. L’utilisation d’une
antenne fixée à l’extérieur peut faciliter le fonctionnement dans un véhicule.
L’état de la pile est un autre facteur important d’une utilisation sans tracas
d’une radio portative. Chargez toujours correctement la pile.
2.4.1 Utilisation Efficace de la Radio
Gardez l’antenne dans une position verticale pendant la réception ou la
transmission d’un message.
MISE EN GARDE
Ne tenez PAS l’antenne lorsque la radio est allumée!
14221-1500-2010, Rev. E 17
2.4.1.1 Entretien et Remplacement de l’antenne
MISE EN GARDE
Conservez TOUJOURS l’appareil et son antenne à au
moins 1,5 cm (0,59 po) du corps, et à au moins 2,5 cm
(1,0
po) du visage pendant la transmission, pour vous
assurer de ne pas dépasser les exigences de conformité de
la FCC en matière d’exposition aux RF.
MISE EN GARDE
N’
utilisez pas la radio portative si son antenne est
endommagée ou absente. Une brûlure légère peut se
produire au contact d’une antenne endommagée avec la
peau. Remplacez immédiatement une antenne
endommagée. L’utilisation d’une radio portative alors que
l’
antenne est absente peut causer des blessures,
endommager la radio et pourrait enfreindre la
réglementation de la FCC.
AVERTISSEMENT
Utilisez seulement l’antenne fournie ou une antenne approuvée.
Des antennes non autorisées, des modifications ou des ajouts à
une antenne peuvent endommager la radio et enfreindre la
réglementation de la FCC.
2.4.1.2 Appareils Électroniques
AVERTISSEMENT
L’énergie des RF provenant de radios portatives peut affecter
certains appareils électroniques. La majorité de l’équipement
électronique moderne dans les voitures, les hôpitaux, les
maisons, etc. est blindé contre l’énergie des RF. Cependant,
dans les zones où l’on vous demande de fermer l’équipement de
radio bidirectionnelle, respectez toujours les règles. En cas de
doute, éteignez-le!
2.4.1.3 Avion
MISE EN GARDE
•
Éteignez toujours une radio portative avant
d’embarquer à bord d’un avion!
• Ne l’utilisez au sol qu’
avec la permission de
l’équipage.
• NE l’utilisez PAS durant le vol!
18 14221-1500-2010, Rev. E
2.4.1.4 Détonateurs électriques
MISE EN GARDE
Pour prévenir la détonation accidentelle des détonateurs
électriques, n’
utilisez PAS de radios bidirectionnelles à
moins de 305 m (1 000 pi) des opérations de détonation.
Respectez toujours les indications «
Éteindre les radios
bidirectionnelles
» situées là où des détonateurs
électriques sont utilisés. (Norme OSHA : 1926.900)
2.4.1.5 Atmosphère Potentiellement Explosive
MISE EN GARDE
Les zones ayant une atmosphère potentiellement explosive
sont souvent, mais pas toujours, identifiées clairement
comme telles. Il peut s’agir de zones d’
alimentation en
carburant, comme les postes d’essence, les installations de
stockage ou de transfert de carburant ou de produits
chimiques, ainsi que les zones dont l’
air contient des
produits chimiques ou des particules, comme des grains,
de la poussière ou des poudres métalliques.
Des étincelles dans de telles zones peuvent provoquer une
explosion ou un incendie, causant ainsi des blessures ou
même la mort.
Éteignez les radios bidirectionnelles dans toute zone ayant
une atmosphère potentiellement explosive. Il est rare, mais
pas impossible qu’une radio ou ses accessoires produisent
des étincelles.

4. BATTERY PACKS
The XG-25P series portable radios use rechargeable, recyclable Nickel Metal
Hydride (NiMH), Lithium-Polymer (Li-Poly), or Lithium Ion (Li-Ion) battery
packs. Please follow the directions below to maximize the useful life of each
type of battery pack.
Do not disassemble or modify Lithium battery packs. The
Lithium battery packs are equipped with built-
in safety
and protection features. Should these features be disabled
or tampered with in any way, the battery pack can leak
electrolyte, overheat, emit smoke, burst, and/or ignite.
If the battery pack is ruptured or is leaking electrolyte
that results in skin or eye contact with the electrolyte,
immediately flush the affected area with water. If the
battery electrolyte gets in the eyes, flush with water for 15
minutes and consult a physician immediately.
DO NOT remove, install, or charge batteries in potentially

4.1 CONDITIONING NIMH BATTERY PACKS
Condition a new NiMH battery pack before putting into use. This also applies
to rechargeable NiMH battery packs that have been stored for long periods
(weeks, months, or longer). Conditioning requires fully charging and fully
discharging the battery pack three (3) times using the tri-chemistry charger.
The first time the battery pack is put into the charger, this unit will condition
Nickel-based battery packs by automatically charging and discharging
(cycling) the battery. Refer to the appropriate charger manual for details.
Failure to properly condition NiMH battery packs before initial
use will result in shortened performance by the battery.
4.2 CONDITIONING LITHIUM BATTERY PACKS
Lithium-based battery packs do not suffer from memory effect and therefore
do not require conditioning.
4.3 STORING LI-ION BATTERY PACKS
If a battery pack is expected to be idle for a month or more, it should be
properly prepared. Li-Ion battery packs should not be stored fully charged.
Before storing the battery pack, discharge it to 40% capacity. If the battery is
not discharged prior to storage, its overall capacity may be reduced. Although
all battery packs experience some capacity loss during storage, the shelf life
for Li-Ion battery packs is about 3 months. However, note that any capacity
drop which occurs during storage is permanent and cannot be reversed. Li-Ion
battery packs should be purchased and used immediately. They should not be
stock-piled without a rotating stock plan.
