RF Radiation Information
This product must be restricted to operations in an Occupational/Controlled RF exposure Environments.
Users must be fully aware of the hazards of the exposure and able to exercise control over their RF
exposure to qualify for the higher exposure limits.
RF Radiation Profile
Radio Frequency (RF) is a frequency of electromagnetic radiation in the range at which radio signals are
transmitted. RF technology is widely used in communication, medicine, food processing and other fields.
It may generate radiation during use.
RF Radiation Safety
In order to ensure user health, experts from relevant industries including science, engineering, medicine
and health work with international organizations to develop standards for safe exposure to RF radiation.
These standards consist of:
United States Federal Communications Commission, Code of Federal Regulations; 47CFR part 2
sub-part J;
American National Standards Institute (ANSI)/Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE)
C95. 1-1992;
Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) C95.1-1999;
3
International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) 1998.
FCC Regulations
Federal Communication Commission (FCC) requires that all radio communication products should meet
the requirements set forth in the above standards before they can be marketed in the U.S, and the
manufacturer shall post a RF label on the product to inform users of operational instructions, so as to
enhance their occupational health against exposure to RF energy.
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the condition that this device
does not cause harmful interference.
The manufacturer is not responsible for any radio or TV interference caused by unauthorized
modifications to this equipment. such modifications could void the user's authority to operate this
equipment.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant
to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to pro-vide reasonable protection against harmful
interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radi-ate radio
frequency energy and, if not in-stalled and used in accordance with the in-structions, may cause harmful
interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in
a particular installation. If this equip-ment does cause harmful interference to radio or television
reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to
correct the interference by one or more of the fol-lowing measures:
● Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
● Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is
connected.
● Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/ TV technician for help.

5.4 Selecting a Zone
You can include a group of channels with the same property into a zone for convenient management.
The radio supports 64 zones, each of which consists of up to 16 channels.
To select a zone, do as follows:
步骤 1 Press the key on the remote microphone speaker until ZONEXX (e.g. ZONE01) is
shadowed.
步骤 2 Press the / key to select a zone.
5.5 Selecting a Channel
步骤 1 Press the key on the remote microphone speaker until CHXX (e.g. CH01) is shadowed.
步骤 2 Press the / key to select a channel.
If the Channel Notify feature is enabled by your dealer, the radio will play the channel number upon
channel switching.
5.6 Setting TX Power Level
This feature is to set the TX power level to high or low. High power can extend the signal coverage,
enabling you to communicate with farther radios. Generally, we recommend you to adopt low power for
battery saving. However, if you cannot communicate with radios located at a distant place with low
power, please select high power.
To set the TX power level, do as follows:
12
步骤 1 Press the key on the remote microphone speaker until the TX power level Icon (e.g. )
is shadowed.
步骤 2 Press the / key to switch power level.

6. Initiating a Call
After the radio is powered on, you can make different kinds of calls. To ensure optimal volume of the
receiving radio, keep the microphone about 2.5 to 5 centimeters away from your mouth when
transmitting.
6.2 Calling on Digital Channel
You can initiate a private call, group call or all call (your radio must be programmed to allow you to use
the all call service) through the same operations on digital channel.
When calling back, the radio will make a call to the calling party in private call and all call (your radio
must be programmed to allow you to call back in an all call); but in group call, the radio will make a call to
all parties involved when calling back. Here takes the private call between Radio A and Radio B as
example:
1. Radio A and B select the same digital channel.
2. Radio A holds down the PTT key to initiate a call.
You may preset a regular private call/group call/all call contact for each digital channel via your
dealer.
3. By holding down the PTT key, Radio A can talk to the microphone when the LED indicator on the
radio glows red.
4. Radio A releases the PTT key to finish talking.
Radio A can hold down the PTT key to talk when the LED indicator on the radio is glowing orange.
When receiving, the LED indicator on the radio glows green.
5. Radio B can receive the call without any operation. When receiving, the LED indicator glows green.
6. Radio B can hold down the PTT key to talk when the LED indicator on the radio is glowing orange.
14
Note:
The Call Hold Time (the duration of LED indicator glowing orange) is preset by your dealer. If neither
party talks before this duration expires, the call will end.
6.3 Calling on Analog Channel (No Signaling)
On the analog channel without signaling, the calling operations are the same as that on the digital
channel. The difference is that the called parties are all the users on the channel, rather than the preset
contact for the channel.
Please refer to the corresponding Feature Book for calling operations on the analog channel with
signaling.
