RF Radiation Information
RF Radiation Prole
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;
●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.
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:
Your radio radiates measurable RF energy only while it is
transmitting (during talking), not when it is receiving (listening)
or in standby mode.
FCC Statement
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with
the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of
FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable
protection against harmful interference in a residential
installation. This equipment generates and can radiate radio
frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance
with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to
radio communications. However, there is no guarantee
that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If
this equipment 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 following measures:
● Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. Increase the
separation between the equipment and receiver.
● 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
Operation is subject to the following two conditions: 1. This
device may not cause harmful interference, and 2. This device
must accept any interference received, including interference
that may cause undesired operation.
Note:” Changes or modifications to this unit not expressly
approved by the party responsible for compliance could void
the user’s authority to operate the equipment.”
EU Regulatory Conformance
As certified by the qualified laboratory, the product is in
compliance with the essential requirements and other relevant
provisions of the Directive 1999/5/EC. Please note that the
above information is applicable to EU countries only.

Functions and Operations
Adjust Power Level
With this feature, you may switch power levels quickly.
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.
Operation:
Press the programmed Adjust Power Level key to switch
between high power and low power (from low power to high
power: a high-pitched tone sounds; from high power to low
power: a low-pitched tone sounds).
Scan
The Scan feature allows you to listen to communication
activities on other channels so that you can keep a close track
of your team members.
Operation:
1. To enable the feature, press the programmed Scan key in
standby mode (a high-pitched tone sounds); or
Switch to a channel for which the feature “Auto Scan” is
enabled via the programming software.
2. After the feature is enabled, your radio will scan according
to the scan list set for the channel on which scanning
starts. The scanning process is as follows:
● During scanning, the LED ashes orange.
●When activities are detected on a channel, the radio will
stay on the channel to receive current activities, and the
LED glows green.
●If you don’t want to hear activities on the channel, press
the programmed Nuisance Temporary Delete key to
remove the channel from the scan list temporarily.
●If you want to continue staying on the channel, press the
programmed Monitor or Squelch Off key during scan
stay.
3. To exit the scanning process, press the programmed Scan
key again (a low-pitched tone sounds).
Talk Around
This feature allows you to continue communication even when
the repeater malfunctions, or when your radio is out of the
repeater’s range but within the coverage range of other radios.
Operation:
12
Press the programmed Talk Around key to enable the feature
(a high-pitched tone sounds). To disable the feature, press this
key again (a low-pitched tone sounds).

Adjust Squelch Level
This feature allows you to adjust the squelch threshold required
for the radio to unmute.
Generally, “Tight” is used in high noise environment. It requires
stronger signal for the radio to unmute. If the squelch level is
set to Open, the speaker will keep unmuted irrespective of the
satisfaction of decoding conditions.
Operation:
Press the programmed Adjust Squelch Level key to switch
among Tight, Open and Normal (from Tight to Open, a low-
pitched tone and background sound are heard; from Open

the device.
The method for supervising the device is programmable by
your dealer. The available methods are:
●To supervise the device via the radio
If a device is connected with a radio, you can use another
radio to supervise the device. All the radios involved
should be configured with the Telemetry feature. For

Busy Channel Lockout
If enabled via the programming software, this feature can
prevent your radio interfering with other transmitting terminals
on the same channel. If you hold down the PTT key while the
channel is in use, your radio will keep beeping, alerting you to
transmission prohibition. To stop beeping, please release the
PTT key. When the channel is free, you can press and hold
down the PTT key to transmit.
Time-out Timer (TOT)
The purpose of TOT is to prevent any user from occupying a
channel for an extended period. If the preset time expires, the
product will automatically terminate transmission and keep
beeping. To stop beeping, please release the PTT key. You
must wait for a certain time period (preset by your dealer) to
initiate another transmission.
If the pre-alert function is set by your dealer, your radio will
alert you to the TOT expiration in advance.
Note: This feature is null in Emergency mode.
