Safety
Read these safety instructions carefully.
Attention!
Sepura mobiles are designed for use by mobile workforces,
often working alone, and are intended for use in occupational
and controlled conditions. This product is restricted for
occupational use and is not intended or authorised for use by
the general population.
It is the responsibility of the person operating the product to
ensure that it is operated safely at all times, and that local laws
and regulations governing the usage of Radio Frequency (RF)
products are observed.
Users must be trained to operate this product safely. Their
personal safety could be affected if they do not understand how
to operate this product correctly.
Exposure to RF energy
Sepura designs and manufactures products to meet strict
guidelines and international standards relating to Radio
Frequency energy and the potential health risks associated with
using such products.
Sepura terminals are low powered radio transmitters and
receivers that receive and transmit Radio Frequency (RF)
signals when switched on. The antenna radiates RF energy only
when transmitting and not in standby mode.
Users should be informed of the potential health risks
associated with long term exposure to RF energy by their
employer.
RF energy interference with electronic equipment
Some personal medical devices, such as hearing aids and
pacemakers, can be affected by RF energy. Always consult your
Service Provider or the manufacturer of the medical device
before using RF wireless devices.
Some electronic devices are sensitive to RF energy. Always
obey signs restricting the use of wireless devices.
Safely operating the product
Users should always ensure that the mobile is operating
correctly before entering any environment that has a potential
risk to personal safety.
Operate the fist microphone in a vertical position and with the
microphone 5 cm (2 in.) away from your mouth when
transmitting.
Safety in hazardous environments
Always switch off the mobile in environments where RF wireless
devices could potentially cause an explosion. Potentially
hazardous areas are not always signed. Obey all signs and
instructions relating to the usage of RF wireless devices.
Do not use the mobile in the presence of gas fumes, explosives
dust situations, nuclear facilities, fuel or chemical transfer or
storage facilities.
This mobile is not designed for use in potentially explosive
environments where RF wireless devices could potentially cause
an explosion. SWITCH OFF the mobile if you are unsure if the
mobile is a risk in these environments. Potentially hazardous
areas are not always signed. Obey all signs and instructions
relating to the usage of RF wireless devices.
Safety when driving a vehicle
Always obey local laws and regulations governing the operation
of RF wireless devices when driving and whilst at locations.
Do not operate the product if it creates a distraction from driving
safely and observing road conditions.
Always switch off the mobile at refuelling stations. Always
observe and obey warning signs relating to the use of RF
wireless devices in the vicinity of refuelling stations.

FCC NOTICE
Any Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the
party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority
to operate the equipment.
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation
is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may
not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept
any interference received, including interference that may
cause undesired operation.
FCC Radiation Exposure Statement:This equipment complies
This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in
conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
Note: This equipment has been tested and found to comply
with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of
the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful interference in a
residential installation. This equipment generates uses and can
radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in
accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful
interference to radio communications. However, there is no
guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular
installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference
to radio or television reception, which can be determined by
turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try
to correct the interference by one or more of the following
measures:
—Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
—Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
—Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different
from that to which the receiver is connected.
—Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for
help.
IC Warning
This device complies with Industry Canada licence-exempt RSS
standard(s). Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) this device may not cause interference, and (2) this device
must accept any interference, including interference that may
cause undesired operation of the device.
Le présent appareil est conforme aux CNR d'Industrie Canada
applicables aux appareils radio exempts de licence.
L'exploitation est autorisée aux deux conditions suivantes:
(1) l'appareil ne doit pas produire de brouillage, et

(2) l'utilisateur de l'appareil doit accepter tout brouillage
radioélectrique subi, même si le brouillage est susceptible d'en
compromettre le fonctionnement.
The term “IC:” before the certification/registration number only
signifies that the Industry Canada technical specifications were
met.Under Industry Canada regulations, this radio transmitter
may only operate using an antenna of a type and maximum (or
lesser) gain approved for the transmitter by Industry Canada. To
reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna
type and its gain should be so chosen that the equivalent
isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than that
necessary for successful communication.
Conformément à la réglementation d'Industrie Canada, le
présent émetteur radio peut fonctionner avec une antenne d'un
type et d'un gain maximal (ou inférieur) approuvé pour
l'émetteur par Industrie Canada.
Dans le but de réduire les risques de brouillage radioélectrique à
l'intention des autres utilisateurs, il faut choisir le type d'antenne
et son gain de sorte que la puissance isotrope rayonnée
équivalente (p.i.r.e.) ne dépasse pas l'intensité nécessaire à
l'établissement d'une communication satisfaisante.
This radio transmitter (identify the device by certification number,
or model number if
Category II) has been approved by Industry Canada to operate
with the antenna types listed below with the maximum
permissible gain and required antenna impedance for each
antenna type indicated. Antenna types not included in this list,
having a gain greater than the maximum gain indicated for that
type, are strictly prohibited for use with this device.
Le présent émetteur radio (identifier le dispositif par son numéro
