TC－1600 Owner’s Manual 2User Safety, Training, and General Information READ THIS IMPORTANT INFORMATION ON SAFE AND EFFICIENT OPERATION BEFORE USING YOUR HYT PORTABLE TWO-WAY RADIO. Compliance with RF Energy Exposure Standards Your HYT two-way radio is designed and tested to comply with a number of national and international standards and guidelines (listed below) regarding human exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic energy. This radio complies with the IEEE (FCC) and ICNIRP exposure limits for occupational/controlled RF exposure environment at duty cycles of up to 50% talk-50% listen and should be used for occupational use only. In terms of measuring RF energy for compliance with the FCC exposure guidelines, your radio radiates measurable RF energy only while it is transmitting (during talking), not when it is receiving (listening) or in standby mode. Note: The approved batteries supplied with this radio are rated for a 5-5-90 duty cycle (5% talk-5% listen-90% standby), even though this radio complies with the FCC occupational RF exposure limits at duty cycles of up to 50% talk. Your HYT two-way radio complies with the following of RF energy exposure standards and guidelines: z United States Federal Communications Commission, Code of Federal Regulations; 47CFR part 2 sub-part J z American National Standards Institute (ANSI)/Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) C95. 1-1992 z Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) C95. 1-1999 Edition z International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) 1998 Operational Instructions and Training Guidelines To ensure optimal performance and compliance with the occupational/controlled environment RF energy exposure limits in the above standards and guidelines, users should transmit no more than 50% of the time and always adhere to the following procedures: Transmit and Receive To transmit (talk), push the Push-To-Talk (PTT) button; to receive, release the PTT button. Hand-held radio operation Hold the radio in a vertical position with the microphone one to two inches (2.5 to 5 cm) away from the lips. Body-worn operation z Always place the radio in an HYT approved clip, holder, holster, case, or body harness for this product. Use of non-HYT-approved accessories may exceed FCC RF exposure guidelines.
TC－1600 Owner’s Manual 3Antennas & Batteries z Use only HYT approved, supplied antenna or HYT approved replacement antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments could damage the radio and may violate FCC regulations. z Use only HYT approved, supplied batteries or HYT approved replacement batteries. Use of non- HYT -approved batteries may exceed FCC RF exposure guidelines.

TC－1600 Owner’s Manual 4User Safety Information READ THIS IMPORTANT INFORMATION ON SAFE AND EFFICIENT OPERATION BEFORE USING YOUR HYT PORTABLE TWO-WAY RADIO. ◇ Only qualified technicians are allowed to maintain this product. ◇ To avoid electromagnetic interference and/or compatibility conflicts, turn off your radio in any place where posted notices instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may be using equipment that is sensitive to external RF energy. When on aircraft, turn off your radio when airline crew instruct you to do so. ◇ When in vehicles with an airbag, do not place a portable radio in the area over an airbag or in the airbag deployment area. ◇ Turn off your radio prior to entering any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere. Do not remove, install, or charge batteries in such areas. ◇ To avoid possible interference with blasting operations, turn off your radio when you are near electrical blasting caps. ◇ Do not use any portable radio that has a damaged antenna. If a damaged antenna comes into contact with your skin, a minor burn may result. ◇ Do not expose the radio in direct sunlight for a long time or place it close to a heating source. ◇ When transmitting with a portable radio, hold the radio in a vertical position with its microphone about 5 centimeters away from your mouth. ◇ If you wear a portable two-way radio on your body, ensure that the antenna is at least 2.5 centimeters from your body when transmitting. ◇ The communication range will be impacted in rainy or cloudy days or when you are in forest.
TC－1600 Owner’s Manual 5Product Inspection Thank you for your use of HYT portable two-way radio TC-1600. Before use, you are recommended to inspect the product as follows. First check the shipping carton for any signs of damage. If any damage has occurred, please contact your dealer immediately. Confirm the supplied product against the packing slip to assure accuracy. Available Accessories Item Qty. (pcs) Battery 1 Desktop Charger 1 Switch power 1 Belt Clip 1 Strap 1 Owner’s Manual 1
TC－1600 Owner’s Manual 6Battery Information Initial Use of the Battery The battery is not fully charged at the factory. Please charge the new battery before initial use. In general, the battery should be charged for 12 hours before initial use, which is suitable for Ni-Cd, Ni-MH or Li-ion battery charged with slow or rapid charger. It is recommended to take this step during the first three times of use. When the battery power is low, it needs to be charged. Applicable Battery Packs Charge only the HYT approved battery packs. Other batteries may burst and cause personal injury. Safety attention 1. Conductive metals including jewelry, key, etc, may result in short circuit, discharge, generation of a large quantity of heat, or leakage when coming into contact with battery contacts or electrodes. To avoid damage to articles or human injury, treat any battery with care. 2. Do not short out the battery terminals or dispose of the battery in fire. Never attempt to disassemble the battery. If discarded, the battery should be thrown into dedicated battery recycle box. Normal operation ★ Please charge the battery indoor to ensure the optimal charging effect. ★ In general, the battery can be removed if the charger indicator turns from red to green. ★ Turn off the radio when charging the battery inside the radio. ★ Do not charge the battery if its power hasn’t been used up (if the power used up, the battery meter flashes), otherwise, the battery life will be shortened. ★ Do not return fully charged batteries to the charger for an “extra boost”. This action will significantly reduce cycle life. To prolong battery life ★ Battery performance will be greatly decreased under -20℃ temperature. Please use back-up battery in cold weather. The cold battery unable to work in this situation may work under room temperature, so keep it for later use. ★ The dust on the battery contact may affect the life cycle of the battery. Please use clean dry cloth to wipe it before the insertion of the battery into the radio. Battery storage notice 1. Due to the self-discharge, the battery which will not be used for a long time should be stored after full charge to avoid the damage to the battery because of over-discharge.
TC－1600 Owner’s Manual 72. Take out the battery stored for about 6 months to charge it, to avoid the influence of electrolyte over-discharge on battery capacity. 3. Notice the ambient humidity and temperature for the battery storage. Please store it in cool dry area with room temperature, to decrease self-discharge. Battery charging You are recommended to use HYT-approved, supplied charger; Charger LED will indicate the charging status. 1. Plug the power cable into the adapter. 2. Plug the DC socket of adapter into the DC jack on the rear of the charger. 3. Insert the battery or the radio with battery into the charger cup. 4. Plug the AC socket of adapter into an AC outlet. 5. Make sure that the battery connectors are in contact with the charging terminals; the charger LED glows red and charging begins. 6. The charger LED glows green when the battery is fully charged in about 2 hours, please remove the battery or the radio with battery from the charger. NOTE: 1. When a fully charged battery is inserted into the charger: ¾ LED glows red, indicating charge is in absorption stage, which helps to charge the battery to its full capacity. In this stage, the charging current is very small and the stage will last about less than 5 minutes and then LED turns green. ¾ LED glows green. ¾ LED goes from red to orange and finally to green. And the LED glows orange for about 10 seconds. Any status is possible and normal and will not affect normal operation. LED Indication Red Charging Green Fully charged or no battery inserted
