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 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.
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 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.

Federal Communication Commission Regulations
The FCC rules require manufacturers to comply with the FCC RF energy
exposure limits for mobile two-way radios before they can be marketed in the
U.S. 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 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.
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 only. 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.

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
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.
English

Instructions:
• Transmit no more than the rated duty factor of 50% of the time. To transmit
(talk), push the Push-To-Talk (PTT) button or, for radios equipped with VOX,
speak into the microphone. The red LED will illuminate when the radio is
transmitting. To receive calls, release the PTT button, or, for radios equipped
with VOX, stop talking. The red LED will extinguish when the radio stops
transmitting. 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).
• 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 people 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.

• When a mobile radio is used in conjunction with another co-located transmitter such
as a Vehicular Repeater, it is the vehicle operator’s responsibility to take appropriate
steps to keep bystanders at the required separation distance from the vehicle to
ensure compliance with the FCC's RF energy exposure limits for the general
population. See the co-located transmitter’s user manual for more details.
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. Users of multi-band
radios subject to different separation distances in different operating bands
according to Table 1 should select the larger applicable distance as the
minimum lateral distance for bystanders outside the vehicle. The maximum
power shown on the FCC Grant may be higher than the rated power
allowing for production variation.
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
