SAFE AND EFFICIENT OPERATION
OF MOTOROLA TWO-WAY RADIOS
This document provides information and
instructions for the safe and efficient operation of
Motorola Portable Two-Way Radios.
For information regarding radio use in hazardous
areas, please refer to the Factory Mutual (FM)
approval manual supplement or Instruction Card
which is included with radio models that offer this
capability.
Exposure To Radio Frequency Energy
Your Motorola Two-Way Radio, which generates
and radiates radio frequency (RF)
electromagnetic energy (EME) is designed to
comply with the following National and
International Standards and Guidelines
regarding exposure of human beings to radio
frequency electromagnetic energy:
Federal Communications Commission
Report and Order No. FCC 96-326 (August
1996)
American National Standards Institute
(C95.1 - 1992)
National Council on Radiation Protection and
Measurements (NCRP-1986)
International Commission on Non-Ionizing
Radiation Protection (ICNRP- 1986)
European Committee for Electrotechnical
Standardisation (CENELEC):
To assure optimal radio performance and to
ensure that your exposure to radio frequency
electromagnetic energy is within the guidelines
in the above standards, always adhere to the
following procedures:
ENV 50166-1
1995 E Human exposure to electro-
magnetic fields Low fre-
quency (0 Hz to 10 kHz)
ENV 50166-2
1995 E Human exposure to electro-
magnetic fields High fre-
quency (10 kHz to 300 GHz)
Proceedings of
SC211/B 1996 “Safety Considerations for
Human Exposure to EMFs
from Mobile Telecommunica-
tion Equipment (MTE) in the
Frequency Range 30MHz - 6
GHz.”(EMF - Electro-Mag-
netic Fields)

Portable Radio Operation
and EME Exposure
•When transmitting with a
portable radio, hold radio in a
vertical position with the
microphone 2.5 to 5 centimeters
(one or two inches) away from
the mouth. Keep antenna at least 2.5
centimeters (one inch) from your head or
body when transmitting.
If you wear a portable Two-Way radio on your
body, ensure that the antenna is at least 2.5
centimeters (one inch) from the body when
transmitting.
Electromagnetic
Interference/Compatibility
Note:Nearly every electronic device is susceptible
to electromagnetic interference (EMI) if
inadequately shielded, designed or otherwise
configured for electromagnetic compatibility.
To avoid electromagnetic interference and/or
compatibility conflicts, turn off your radio in
any facility where posted notices instruct you
to do so. Hospital or health facilities may be
using equipment that is sensitive to external
RF energy.
When instructed to do so, turn off your radio
when on board an aircraft. Any use of a radio
must be in accordance with airline
regulations or crew instructions.
Operational Warnings
Vehicles with an air bag
Do not place a portable radio in
the area over an airbag or in the
air bag deployment area. Air bags inflate with
great force. If a portable radio is placed in the
air bag deployment area and the air bag
inflates, the radio may be propelled with
great force and cause serious injury to
occupants of vehicle.

Potentially explosive atmospheres
Turn off your Two-Way radio when you are in
any area with a potentially explosive
atmosphere, unless it is a radio type
especially qualified for use in such areas
(e.g. FM or Cenelec approved). Sparks in a
potentially explosive atmosphere can cause
an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury
or even death.
Batteries
Do not replace or recharge batteries in a
potentially explosive atmosphere. Contact
sparking may occur while installing or
removing batteries and cause an explosion.
Blasting caps and areas
To avoid possible interference with blasting
operations, turn off your radio when you are
near electrical blasting caps. In a “
blasting
area
or in areas posted “
turn off two-way
radio
”, obey all signs and instructions.
Note: The areas with potentially explosive
atmospheres referred to above include
fuelling areas such as: below decks on boats;
fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities;
areas where the air contains chemicals or
particles, such as grain, dust or metal
powders; and any other area where you
would normally be advised to turn off your
vehicle engine. Areas with potentially
explosive atmospheres are often but not
always posted.
Operational Cautions
Damaged antennas
Do not use any portable two-way
radio that has a damaged antenna.
If a damaged antenna comes into contact
with your skin, a minor burn can result.
Batteries
All batteries can cause property damage
and/or bodily injury such as burns if a
conductive material such as jewellery, keys
or beaded chains touch exposed terminals.
The conductive material may complete an
electrical circuit (short circuit) and become
quite hot. Exercise care in handling any
charged battery, particularly when placing it
inside a pocket, purse or other container with
metal objects.
