Safety Training Information
Your RITRON FM Handheld Transceiver generates RF
electromagnetic energy during transmit mode.
FCC RF exposure limits. A proper antenna is the antenna
supplied with this radio by the manufacturer for use with
this radio.
Do not transmit for more than 50% of total radio use time
(“50% duty cycle”). Transmitting more than 50% of the
time can cause FCC RF exposure compliance
requirements to be exceeded.
This radio is designed for and classified as “Controlled
Exposure/Occupation Environment,” meaning it must be
used only during the course of employment by individuals
aware of the hazards, and the ways to minimize such
hazards.
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.
