SAFETY TRAINING INFORMATION
Your Com-Net Ericsson radio generates
RF electromagnetic energy during
transmit mode. This radio is designed
for and classified as “Occupational Use
Only” meaning it must be used only
W ARN ING
during the course of employment by
individuals aware of the hazards and the ways to
minimize such hazards. This radio is NOT intended for
use by the “General Population” in an uncontrolled
environment.
This radio has been tested and complies with the FCC RF
exposure limits for “Occupational Use Only.” In addition,
your Com-Net Ericsson radio complies with the following
Standards and Guidelines with regard to RF energy and
electromagnetic energy levels and evaluation of such
levels for exposure to humans:
•
FCC OET Bulletin 65 Edition 97-01 Supplement C,
Evaluating Compliance with FCC Guidelines for Human
Exposure to Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Fields.
•
American National Standards Institute (C95.1 – 1992),
IEEE Standard for Safety Levels with Respect to Human
Exposure to Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Fields, 3
kHz to 300 GHz.
•
American National Standards Institute (C95.3 – 1992),
IEEE Recommended Practice for the Measurement of
Potentially Hazardous Electromagnetic Fields – RF and
Microwave.
C AU TIO N
To ensure that your exposure to RF
electromagnetic energy is within the
FCC allowable limits for occupational
use, 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 you to exceed FCC RF exposure limits. A
proper antenna is the antenna supplied with this radio
by the manufacturer or an antenna specifically
authorized by the manufacturer 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 to be exceeded.
The radio is
transmitting when the “TX” light appears in the display.
You can cause the radio to transmit by pressing the
“PTT” button.
•
ALWAYS
use
Com-Net
Ericsson authorized
accessories
(antennas,
batteries,
belt
clips,
speaker/mics, etc). Use of unauthorized accessories
can cause the FCC RF exposure compliance
requirements to be exceeded.
•
ALWAYS keep the antenna at least 1 cm (0.4 inches)
away from the body when transmitting to ensure FCC
RF exposure compliance requirements are not
exceeded.
To provide the recipients of your
transmission the best sound quality, hold the antenna
at least 5 cm (2 inches) from mouth, and slightly off to
one side.
The information listed above provides the user with the
information needed to make him or her aware of a RF
exposure, and what to do to assure that this radio operates
within the FCC RF exposure limits of this radio.
Electromagnetic Interference/Compatibility
During transmissions, your Com-Net Ericsson radio
generates RF energy that can possibly cause interference
with other devices or systems. To avoid such interference,
turn off the radio in areas where signs are posted to do so.
DO NOT operate the transmitter in areas that are sensitive
to electromagnetic radiation such as hospitals, aircraft, and
blasting sites.
OPERATING RULES AND REGULATIONS
Two-way FM radio systems must be operated in
accordance with the rules and regulations of the Federal
Communications Commission (FCC). As an operator of
two-way radio equipment, you must be thoroughly familiar
with the rules that apply to your particular type of radio
operation. Following these rules will help eliminate
confusion and will assure the most efficient use of existing
radio channels. This will provide a smooth operating radio
network.
When using the radio, remember these rules:
1.
It is a violation of FCC rules to interrupt any distress or
emergency message. As the radio operates in much
the same way as a telephone "party line", always listen
and/or observe the absence of the “BSY” display to
make sure that the line is clear before sending any
messages. If someone is sending an emergency
message, such as reporting a fire or asking for help in
an accident, KEEP OFF THE AIR! Emergency calls
have priority over all other messages.
2.
Use of profane or obscene language is prohibited by
Federal Law.
3.
It is against the law to send false call letters or a false
distress or emergency message.
4.
The FCC requires that conversations be brief and
confined to business. To save time, use coded
messages whenever possible.
5.
Using the radio to send personal messages (except in
an emergency) is a violation of FCC rules. Send only
those messages essential for the business operation.
6.
It is against the Federal law to repeat or otherwise
make known anything overheard on the radio.
Conversations between others sharing your channel
must be regarded as confidential.
OPERATING TIPS
The following conditions tend to reduce the effective range
of two-way radios and should be avoided whenever
possible.
•
•
•
Operating the radio in low terrain areas or
while under power lines or bridges.
Operating the radio inside of a vehicle or inside metal
or steel framed building unless using an outside
antenna.
