(applicable to wireless phones only)
To assure optimal radio performance and make sure human exposure to radio
frequency electromagnetic energy is within the guidelines set forth in the above
standards, always adhere to the following procedures:
PORTABLE RADIO OPERATION AND EME EXPOSURE
Antenna Care
Use only the supplied or an approved replacement antenna. Unauthorized
antennas, modifications, or attachments could damage the radio and may violate
FCC regulations.
DO NOT hold the antenna when the radio is “IN USE.” Holding the antenna
affects call quality and may cause the radio to operate at a higher power level than
needed.
Two-way Radio Operation
When using your radio as a traditional two-way radio, hold the radio in a vertical
position with the microphone one to two inches (2.5 to 5 cm) away from the
lips.
To maintain compliance with FCC/Health Canada RF exposure guidelines, if you
wear a radio on your body when transmitting, always place the radio in a Motorola
supplied or approved clip, holder, holster, case, or body harness for this
product. Use of non-Motorola-approved accessories may exceed FCC/Health
Canada RF exposure guidelines. If you do not use a body-worn accessory, and
are not using the radio held in the normal use position at the ear, ensure the radio
and its antenna are at least one inch (2.5 cm) from your body when
transmitting.
Data operation
When using any data feature of the radio, with or without an accessory cable,
position the radio and its antenna at least one inch (2.5 cm) from the body.
Approved Accessories
For a list of approved Motorola accessories visit our website at www.mot.com.

AIRCRAFT
When instructed to do so, turn off your radio when on board an aircraft. Any use
of a radio must be in accordance with applicable regulations per airline crew
instructions.
MEDICAL DEVICES
Pacemakers
The Advanced Medical Technology Association recommends that a minimum
separation of 6 inches (15 centimeters) be maintained between a handheld
wireless radio and a pacemaker.These recommendations are consistent with
the independent research by, and recommendations of, the United States Food
and Drug Administration.
Persons with pacemakers should:
• ALWAYS keep the radio more than six inches (15 centimeters) from their
pacemaker when the radio is turned ON.
• not carry the radio in the breast pocket.
• use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for
interference.
• turn the radio OFF immediately if you have any reason to suspect that
interference is taking place.
Hearing Aids
Some analogue wireless radios may interfere with some hearing aids. In the
event of such interference, you may want to consult your hearing aid
manufacturer to discuss alternatives.
If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of your
device to determine if it is adequately shielded from RF energy. Your physician
may be able to assist you in obtaining this information.
SAFETY AND GENERAL USE WHILE DRIVING
Check the laws and regulations on the use of radio in the area where you drive.
Always obey them.
When using your radio while driving, please:
• Give full attention to driving and to the road.
• Use hands-free operation, if available.
• Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call if driving
condtions so require.
OPERATIONAL WARNINGS

Privacy
Just between you and me, there are many things we need to keep
under wraps ...
Your radio has the Eavesdrop Reducer feature, a scramble code that
makes your transmissions sound garbled to anyone listening. It
doesn’t guarantee secrecy, but it adds an extra layer of privacy. Don’t
forget -- all the radios have to be set to the same scramble code for
the transmissions to be clear.
To set the scramble code, select the TWO WAY mode and the SETSCRAM menu, then
select code SCRM 1, SCRM 2 or SCRM 3. Your display will now show e. To turn
scramble code off, select SCRM OFF.

Channel Scanning
By using SCAN, you can monitor channels and codes for
transmissions and lock in on the one that interests you.You don’t
have to set a new channel or code, the radio just resets itself
temporarily to that channel and code and you can start talking.
However, if no transmissions take place for five seconds, scanning
resumes.
After you turn on SCAN, your radio scans channels and codes until it finds an active
one and locks on to it. If you do not begin talking or no one else transmits within a
short time, it will resume scanning.
If you want to scan channel frequencies without interference eliminator codes,
change your code to 0.
