RF Energy Exposure Awareness and Control Information,
and Operational Instructions for FCC Occupational Use
Requirements
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 FCC limits. This
radio device is NOT authorized for general population, consumer,
or any other use.
This 2-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.
All Motorola 2-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 2-way radios. These
instructions are important because they inform users about RF energy exposure
and provide simple procedures on how to control it.
English
Please refer to the following Web sites 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
http://www.osha.gov/SLTC/radiofrequencyradiation/index.html
Federal Communication Commission Regulations
The FCC rules require manufacturers to comply with the FCC RF energy
exposure limits for mobile 2-way radios before they can be marketed in the U.S.
When 2-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 label directing users to specific user awareness information. Your Motorola
2-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.
Compliance with RF Exposure Standard
Your Motorola two-way radio is designed and tested to comply with a number of
national and international standards and guidelines (listed below) regarding
human exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic energy. This radio complies
with the IEEE and ICNIRP exposure limits for occupational/controlled RF
exposure environment at duty factors of up to 50% talk-50% listen and is
authorized by the FCC for occupational use. In terms of measuring RF energy for
compliance with the FCC exposure guidelines, your radio antenna radiates
measurable RF energy only while it is transmitting (during talking), not when it is
receiving (listening) or in standby mode.
English
Your Motorola two-way radio complies with the following RF energy
exposure standards and guidelines:
• 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 Edition
• International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) 1998
• Ministry of Health (Canada) Safety Code 6. Limits of Human Exposure to
Radiofrequency Electromagnetic Fields in the Frequency Range from 3 kHz to
300 GHz, 1999
• Australian Communications Authority Radiocommunications (Electromagnetic
Radiation - Human Exposure) Standard, 2003
• ANATEL, Brasil Regulatory Authority, Resolution 256 (April 11, 2001) “additional
requirements for SMR, cellular, and PCS product certification.”
RF Exposure Compliance and Control Guidelines and Operating
Instructions
To control exposure to yourself and others and to ensure compliance with the RF
exposure limits, always adhere to the following procedures.
Guidelines:
• User awareness instructions should accompany device when transferred to
other users.
• Do not use this device if the operational requirements described herein are not
met.
Instructions:
• Transmit no more than the rated duty factor of 50% of the time. To transmit
(talk), push the Push-To-Talk (PTT) button. To receive calls, release the PTT
button. Transmitting 50% of the time, or less, is important because this radio
English
generates measurable RF energy exposure only when transmitting (in terms of
measuring for standards compliance).
• Transmit only when people outside the vehicle are at least the
recommended minimum lateral distance away, as shown in Table 1, from
the body of a vehicle with a properly installed antenna. This separation
distance will ensure that there is sufficient distance from a properly installed
(according to installation instructions) externally-mounted antenna to satisfy
the RF exposure requirements in the standards listed above.
NOTE: Table 1 below lists the recommended lateral distance for bystanders in an
uncontrolled environment from the body of a vehicle with an approved,
properly installed transmitting antenna (i.e., monopoles over a ground
plane, or dipoles) at several different ranges of rated radio power for
mobile radios installed in a vehicle.

NOTE: If you are not sure of the rated power of your radio, contact your
Motorola representative or dealer and supply the radio model number
found on the radio model label. If you can not determine the rated power
out, then assure 3-feet separation from the body of the vehicle.

Mobile Antenna Installation Guidelines
• These mobile antenna installation guidelines are limited to metal body motor
vehicles or vehicles with appropriate ground planes.
• Antennas should be installed in the center area of the roof or the trunk lid taking
into account the bystander exposure conditions of backseat passengers and
according to the specific instructions and restrictions in the Radio Installation
Manual along with the requirements of the antenna supplier.
• Trunk lid installations are limited to vehicles with clearly defined flat trunk lids,
and in some cases, to specific radio models and antennas. See the Radio
Installation Manual for specific information on how and where to install specific
types of approved antennas to facilitate recommended operating distances to
all potentially exposed persons.
• Use only the Motorola-approved, supplied antenna or a Motorolaapproved replacement antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or
attachments could damage the radio and may result in non-compliance with RF
Safety Standards.
Approved Accessories
• This radio has been tested and meets RF Safety Standards when used with the
Motorola accessories supplied or designated for this product. Use of other

Compliance and Control Guidelines and Operating Instructions for
Mobile Two-Way Radios Installed as Fixed Site Control Stations
If mobile radio equipment is installed at a fixed location and operated as a control
station or as a fixed unit, the antenna installation must comply with the following
requirements in order to ensure optimal performance and compliance with the RF
energy exposure limits in the standards and guidelines listed on page 4:
• The antenna should be mounted outside the building on the roof or a tower if at
all possible.
• As with all fixed site antenna installations, it is the responsibility of the licensee
to manage the site in accordance with applicable regulatory requirements and
may require additional compliance actions such as site survey measurements,
signage, and site access restrictions in order to ensure that exposure limits are
not exceeded.
Electromagnetic Interference/Compatibility
NOTE: Nearly every electronic device is susceptible to electromagnetic
interference (EMI) if inadequately shielded, designed, or otherwise
configured for electromagnetic compatibility. It may be necessary to
conduct compatibility testing to determine if any electronic equipment
used in or around vehicles or near fixed site antenna is sensitive to
external RF energy or if any procedures need to be followed to eliminate
or mitigate the potential for interaction between the radio transmitter and
the equipment or device.
Facilities
To avoid electromagnetic interference and/or compatibility conflicts, turn off your
radio in any facility where posted notices instruct you to do so. Hospitals or
health care facilities may be using equipment that is sensitive to external RF
energy.
English
Vehicles
To avoid possible interaction between the radio transmitter and any vehicle
electronic control modules, such as ABS, engine, or transmission controls, the
radio should be installed only by an experienced installer and the following
precautions should be used when installing the radio:
1. Refer to the manufacturer’s instructions or other technical bulletins for
recommendations on radio installation.
2. Before installing the radio, determine the location of the electronic control
modules and their harnesses in the vehicle.
3. Route all radio wiring, including the antenna transmission line, as far away as
possible from the electronic control units and associated wiring.
Driver Safety
Check the laws and regulations on the use of radios 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.
• Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call if driving conditions
so require.
