It uses radio frequency (RF) energy or radio waves to send and re-ceive information. RF energy is one form of electromagnetic energy. Other forms in-clude, 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 im-properly, 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 organiza-tions 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.All Motorola two-way radio products are designed, manufactured, and tested to en-sure they meet government-established RF exposure levels. In addition, manufac-turers also recommend specific operating instructions to users of two-way radio products. These instructions are important because they inform users about RF en-ergy exposure and provide simple procedures on how to control it.Please refer to the following websites for more information on what RF energy ex-posure is and how to control your exposure to assure compliance with established RF exposure limits:http://www.fcc.gov/oet/rfsafety/rf-faqs.html http://www.osha.gov/SLTC/radiofrequencyradiation/index.htmlHANDHELD DATA COMPUTER WITH RADIO - PRODUCT OPERA-TION AND EME EXPOSUREYour Motorola two-way radio device complies with the following RF energy exposure standards and guidelines:•United States Federal Communications Commission, Code of Federal Regula-tions; 47CFR part 2 sub-part J•American National Standards Institute (ANSI) / Institute of Electrical and Elec-tronic Engineers (IEEE) C95. 1-1992•Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) C95.1-1999 Edition•International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) 1998•Ministry of Health (Canada) Safety Code 6.

Operating Instructions•Hold the handheld data computer in a vertical position in front of the face with the microphone (and other parts of the computer) at least one inch (2.5 centi-meters) away from the nose or lips. Keeping the handheld data computer at a proper distance is important since RF exposures decrease with increasing dis-tance from the antenna.•When worn on the body, always place the handheld data computer in a Motor-ola-approved clip, holder, holster, case, or body harness for this product. Using approved bodyworn accessories is important because the use of non-Motorola-approved accessories may result in exposure levels, which exceed the FCC environment RF exposure limits.Approved AccessoriesUse only Motorola-approved supplied or replacement batteries and accessories. Use of Non-Motorola approved batteries and accessories may exceed the FCC (IEEE) and ICNIRP RF exposure guidelines.For additional information on exposure requirements or other training information, visit http://www.motorola.com/rfhealth.Electromagnetic Interference/CompatibilityNOTE: Nearly every electronic device is susceptible to electromagnetic interference (EMI) if inadequately shielded, designed, or otherwise configured for electromagnet-ic compatibility.FacilitiesTo avoid electromagnetic interference and/or compatibility conflicts, turn off your handheld data computer in any facility where posted notices instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may be using equipment that is sensitive to exter-nal RF energy.AircraftWhen instructed to do so, turn off your handheld data computer when on board an aircraft. Any use of a handheld data computer must be in accordance with applicable regulations per airline crew instructions.Medical Devices PacemakersThe Advanced Medical Technology Association (AdvaMed) recommends that a minimum separation of 6 inches (15 centimeters) be maintained between a hand-held wireless radio and a pacemaker. These recommendations are consistent with Persons with pacemakers should:•ALWAYS keep the handheld data computer more than 6 inches (15 centime-ters) from their pacemaker when the radio is turned ON.•Not carry the handheld data computer in the breast pocket.•Use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for interference.•Turn the handheld data computer OFF immediately if there is any reason to suspect that interference is taking place.•Hearing AidsSome digital 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.Other Medical DevicesIf you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of your de-vice to determine if it is adequately shielded from RF energy. Your physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this information.Use of Communication Devices While DrivingAlways check the laws and regulations on the use of radios in the areas where you drive.•Give full attention to driving and to the road.•Use hands-free operation, if available.•Pull off the road and park before using the handheld data computer, if driving conditions or regulations so require.those of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
