Always use the supplied accessories (antenna, batteries, belt clips, speaker/mic, etc.) This radio is not for use by the General Population/ Uncontrolled Environment. Always keep the antenna at least 2.5 cm (1 inch) away from the body when transmitting and only use the beltclips, when attaching the radio to your belt, etc., to ensure FCC RF exposure compliance requirements are not being exceeded. This radio complies with FCC RF radiation exposure limits set forth for a controlled environment. This radio should be installed and operated with a minimum distance of 2.5 centimeters between the radio and yoru body. Therefore, to ensure that your exposure to RF electromagnetic energy is within the FCC allowable limits for occupational use, always follow below information. Do not operate the radio without a proper antenna as this may damage the radio and may also cause you to exceed Use of unauthorized accessories can cause the FCC RF exposure compliance requirements to be exceeded. 2.
