Transmitting more than 50% of the time can cause FCC RF exposure compliance requirements to be exceeded. The radio is transmitting when the “TX indicator” lights red. You can cause the radio to transmit by pressing the “PTT” switch. Body-worn operations are restricted to belt-clips, holsters or similar accessories that have no metallic component in the assembly and that provide at least 1.5 cm separation between the device, including its antenna, and the user's body. 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 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 HYT 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. ii FOREWORD Thank you for purchasing the TC-620U(2) transceiver. READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS carefully and completely before using the transceiver. SAVE THIS INSTRUCTION MANUAL–This instruction manual contains important operating instructions for the transceiver. INSTALLATION NOTES • Body-worn operations are restricted to belt-clips, holsters or similar accessories that have no metallic component in the assembly and that provide at least 1.5 cm separation between the device, including its antenna, and the user's body • If you wear a portable two-way radio on your body, ensure that the antenna is at least 2.5 centimeters (1 in.) from your body when transmitting. IMPORTANT R CAUTION! NEVER hold the transceiver so that the antenna is very close to, or touching exposed parts of the body, especially the face or eyes, while transmitting. The transceiver will perform best if the microphone is 2 to 4 in. (5 to 10 cm) away from the lips and the transceiver is vertical. R CAUTION! NEVER operate the transceiver with a headset or other audio accessories at high volume levels. R CAUTION! NEVER short the terminals of the battery pack. DO NOT push the PTT when not actually desiring to transmit. iii AVOID using or placing the transceiver in direct sunlight or in areas with temperatures below +14°F (–10°C) or above +122°F (+50°C). The basic operations, transmission and reception of the transceiver, are guaranteed within the specified operating temperature range (depending on version). However, the LCD display may not be operate correctly, or show an indication in the case of long hours of operation, or after being placed in extremely cold areas. DO NOT modify the transceiver for any reason. KEEP the transceiver from the heavy rain, and Never immerse it in the water. The transceiver construction is water resistant, not waterproof. The use of non-HYT battery packs/chargers may impair transceiver performance and invalidate the warranty. iv
