RF Energy Exposure Awareness and
Control Information and Operational
Instructions for Occupational Use
NOTICE:
This radio is intended for use in
occupational/controlled conditions
where users have full knowledge of their
exposure and can exercise control over
their exposure to meet the occupational
limits in FCC and International
standards. This radio device is NOT
authorized for general population
consumer use.
This two-way radio uses electromagnetic energy in
the radio frequency (RF) spectrum to provide
communications between two or more users over a
distance. It uses radio frequency (RF) energy or radio
waves to send and receive calls. RF energy is one
form of electromagnetic energy. Other forms include,
but are not limited to, sunlight and x-rays. RF energy,
however, should not be confused with these other
forms of electromagnetic energy, which when used
improperly, can cause biological damage. Very high
levels of x-rays, for example, can damage tissues and
genetic material.
Experts in science, engineering, medicine, health, and
industry work with organizations to develop standards
for safe exposure to RF energy. These standards
provide recommended levels of RF exposure for both
workers and the general public. These recommended
RF exposure levels include substantial margins of
protection.
English
MainContent_NAG-LACR.fm Page 3 Friday, September 5, 2014 10:59 AM
All Motorola two-way radios are designed,
manufactured, and tested to ensure they meet
government-established RF exposure levels. In
addition, manufacturers also recommend specific
operating instructions to users of two-way radios.
These instructions are important because they inform
users about RF energy exposure and provide simple
procedures on how to control it.
Please refer to the following websites for more
information on what RF energy exposure is and how
to control your exposure to assure compliance with
established RF exposure limits:
http://www.fcc.gov/oet/rfsafety/rf-faqs.html
www.who.int/en/
www.motorolasolutions.com/rfhealth
Federal Communication Commission
(FCC) Regulations
When two-way radios are used as a consequence of
employment, the FCC requires users to be fully aware
of and able to control their exposure to meet
occupational requirements. Exposure awareness can
be facilitated by the use of a product label directing
users to specific user awareness information. Your
Motorola two-way radio has a RF Exposure Product
Label. Also, your Motorola user manual, or separate
safety booklet includes information and operating
instructions required to control your RF exposure and
to satisfy compliance requirements.
English
MainContent_NAG-LACR.fm Page 4 Friday, September 5, 2014 10:59 AM
Compliance with RF Exposure Standards
Your Motorola two-way radio is designed and tested to
comply with a number of national and International
standards and guidelines (listed below) for human
exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic energy.
This radio complies with the IEEE (FCC) and
ICNIRP exposure limits for occupational/
controlled RF exposure environments at
operating duty factors of up to 50% talk-50% listen
and is approved for occupational use only. In
terms of measuring RF energy for compliance with
these exposure guidelines, your radio generates
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 factor (5%
talk-5% listen-90% standby) even though
this radio complies with FCC occupational
exposure limits and may operate at duty
factors of up to 50% talk.
Your Motorola two-way radio complies with the
following RF energy exposure standards and
guidelines:
• United States Federal Communications
Commission (FCC), Code of Federal Regulations;
47 CFR et seq. & FCC, OET Bulletin 65
• Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers
(IEEE) C95.1
• International Commission on Non-Ionizing
Radiation Protection (ICNIRP)

• Ministry of Health (Canada) Safety Code 6 &
Industry Canada RSS-102
• Australian Communications Authority
Radiocommunications Standard et seq.
• ANATEL ANNEX to Resolution No. 303 et seq.
RF Exposure Compliance and Control
Guidelines and Operating Instructions
for Two-Way Radio Operations
To control your exposure and ensure compliance with
the occupational/controlled environment exposure
limits, always adhere to the following procedures.
• DO NOT remove the RF Exposure Label from the
device.
• User awareness instructions should accompany
device when transferred to other users.
Two-Way Radio Operation
• Transmit no more than the rated duty factor of 50%
of the time. To transmit (talk), push the Push-ToTalk (PTT) button. To receive calls, release the PTT
button. The PTT button may reside on the radio
itself or may be hosted on approved wired or
wireless (for example, a Bluetooth-enabled remote
PTT button) accessories. Transmitting 50% of the
time, or less, is important because this radio
generates measurable RF energy exposure only
when transmitting (in terms of measuring for
standards compliance).
English
MainContent_NAG-LACR.fm Page 6 Friday, September 5, 2014 10:59 AM
• In front of the face. Hold the radio in
a vertical position with the
microphone (and other parts of the
radio including the antenna) at least
one inch (2.5 centimeters) away from
the nose or lips. Keeping the radio at
a proper distance is important to ensure
compliance.
NOTE: RF exposures decrease with increasing
distance from the antenna.
• Body Worn Operation. When worn on the body,
always place the radio in a Motorola-approved clip,
holder, holster, case, or body harness for this
product. Using approved body-worn accessories is
important because the use of non-Motorolaapproved accessories may result in exposure
levels, which exceed the occupational/controlled
environment RF exposure limits.
• Use only Motorola-approved supplied or
replacement antennas, batteries, and audio
accessories. Use of non-Motorola-approved
antennas, batteries, and wired or wireless
accessories may exceed the applicable RF
exposure guidelines (iEEE, ICNIRP or FCC).

Acoustic Safety
Exposure to loud noises from any source for extended
periods of time may temporarily or permanently affect
your hearing. The louder the radio's volume, the less
time is required before your hearing could be affected.
Hearing damage from loud noise is sometimes
undetectable at first and can have a cumulative effect.
To protect your hearing:
• Use the lowest volume necessary to do your job.
• Turn up the volume only if you are in noisy
surroundings.
• Turn down the volume before adding headset or
earpiece.
• Limit the amount of time you use headsets or
earpieces at high volume.
