CAUTION
SAFETY INFORMATION
Your wireless hand-held portable transceiver contains a low power
transmitter. When the PTT button is pushed (or the VOX mode is enabled)
it sends out radio frequency (RF) signals. The device is authorized to operate
at a duty factor not to exceed 50%. In August 1996, the Federal
Communications Commissions (FCC) adopted RF exposure guidelines
with safety levels for hand-held wireless devices.
Important: To maintain compliance with the FCC’ s RF exposure guidelines
hold the transmitter at least 1 inch (2.5 centimeters) from your
face and speak in a normal voice, with the antenna pointed up
and away. If you wear the handset on your body while using the
headset accessory, use only the Audiovox supplied carry clip
for this product and ensure that the antenna is at least 1 inch
(2.5 centimeters) from your body when transmitting. Use only
the supplied antenna. Do not use your transceiver with a
damaged antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or
attachments could damage the transmitter and may violate
FCC regulations.
Performance:
Your transceiver will only achieve its maximum operating range when
communicating with other transceivers across open and flat areas or
between elevated points. Normally occurring environmental factors such
as buildings, trees, terrain and weather, or interference from other radio or
electrical equipment, may have adverse effects on the transceiver’s effective
range. These are not indicative of a fault condition.
Avoid placing the GMRS1202 radio transceiver for prolonged periods of
time in direct sunlight or temperatures below -4° F(-20 ° C) or above
140°F (60°C).
Place the rubber cover on jacks when not in use.

NOTES FOR GOOD COMMUNICATION
1 . The GMRS1202 22 channels are shared on a ‘take turns’ basis.
This means other groups may be talking on any of the channels.
A common code of ethics/courtesy is to switch to another vacant
channel and not to attempt to talk over someone who is already using
the channel you first selected.
2. The GMRS1202 has been designed to maximize performance
and improve transmission range in the field. To avoid interference,
it is recommended that you do not use the units closer than 5 feet
apart.
3. For best transmission results, always keep your mouth about 2-3
inches from the microphone (9) and speak slowly in a normal voice.
4. To increase battery life, avoid features such as Scan and Dual
Watch. These features will reduce operating time considerably.

[RF EXPOSURE STATEMENT
PDHGMRS1202 / TTI TECH CO., LTD.]
- CAUTION! -
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Your wireless hand-held portable transceiver contains a radio frequency
transmitter. When the PTT button is pushed, the transmitter sends out RF
signals. The device is authorized to operate at a transmit duty factor not
exceeding 50% using Ni-Mh / alkaline “AAA” size batteries to comply with
Federal Communications Commissions (FCC) RF exposure safety level
guidelines for hand-held wireless devices.
For body-worn operation, this device has been tested for SAR (Specific
Absorption Rate) and meets the FCC RF exposure guidelines when used with
the accessories supplied or designated for this device by the manufacturer.
Use of other accessories may not ensure compliance with FCC RF exposure
guidelines. Use the manufacturer-supplied antenna only. Unauthorized
antennas, modifications, or attachments could damage the transmitter and may
violate FCC regulations. To maintain compliance with the FCC’s RF exposure
guidelines, hold the transceiver at least 1 inch (2.5 centimeters) from your face
and speak in a normal voice, with the antenna pointed up and away.
GMRS License
Use of GRMS radios within the United States requires a FCC GMRS license.
An individual of 18 years of age or older, who is not a representative of a foreign
government is eligible to apply for a GMRS system license. You will need two
forms from the FCC - FCC FORM 159 and FCC Form 605 Main Form and
Schedule F.
You can find the forms online at http://www.fcc.gov/formpage.html or call 1-800418-3676.
