For your safety
Please read the following safety and compliance
information before using your radio.
Radio frequency exposure information
For your own safety and to ensure you comply with the
Federal Communication Commission’s (FCC) radio
frequency (RF) exposure guidelines, please read the
following information before using this radio.
Using this radio
For your safety
You should use this radio only for work-related
purposes (it is not authorized for any other use) and if
you are fully aware of, and can exercise control over,
your exposure to RF energy. To prevent exceeding FCC
RF exposure limits, you must control the amount and
duration of RF that you and other people are exposed
to.
It is also important that you:
■
Do not remove the RF Exposure label from the
radio.
■
Ensure this RF exposure information accompanies
the radio when it is transferred to other users.
■
Do not use the radio if you do not adhere to the
guidelines on controlling your exposure to RF.
Controlling your exposure to RF energy
This radio emits radio frequency (RF) energy or radio
waves primarily when calls are made. RF is a form of
electromagnetic energy (as is sunlight), and there are
recommended levels of maximum RF exposure.
To control your exposure to RF and comply with the
maximum exposure limits for occupational/controlled
environments, follow these guidelines:
■
Do not talk (transmit) on the radio more than the
rated transmit duty cycle. This is important because
For your safety
the radio radiates more energy when it is transmitting than when it is receiving.
■
While you are transmitting (talking or sending data)
on the radio, you must ensure that there is always a
distance of 0.9m (35 inches) between people and
the antenna. This is the minimum safe distance.
■
Use the radio only with Tait-approved antennas and
attachments, and make only authorized modifications to the antenna otherwise you could damage
the radio and violate FCC regulations.
For more information on what RF energy is and how to
control your exposure to it, visit the FCC website at
http://www.fcc.gov/oet/rfsafety/rf-faqs.html.
For your safety
Compliance with RF energy exposure
standards
This two-way radio complies with these RF energy
exposure standards and guidelines:
■
United States Federal Communications Commission, Code of Federal Regulations; 47 CFR §§
1.1307, 1.1310, and 2.1091.
■
American National Standards Institute (ANSI) / Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE)
C95.1-1992
■
Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE)
C95.1-1999 Edition.
This radio complies with the IEEE (FCC) and ICNIRP
exposure limits for occupational/controlled RF exposure
environments at operating duty factors of up to 50%
talk to 50% listen.
Radio frequency emissions limits in the
USA
Part 15 of the FCC Rules imposes RF emission limits on
electronic equipment to prevent interference to
reception of broadcast services.
ii
For your safety
This radio complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
Operation is subject to the condition that this device
does not cause harmful interference.
Unapproved modifications or changes to
radio
The radio is designed to satisfy the applicable
compliance regulations. Do not make modifications or
changes to the radio that are not expressly approved by
Tait Electronics Ltd. Failure to do so could invalidate
compliance requirements and void the user’s authority
to operate the radio.
Interference to radio communications
For your safety
This radio complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules which
specifies the limits for a Class B digital device.
This radio generates, uses, and can radiate RF energy.
This energy may cause harmful interference to radio
communications if the radio is not installed and used
according to the instructions in the user guide. If this
radio does cause harmful interference, you should
contact your radio provider for assistance.
Frequency band reserved for distress
beacons
Frequency band 406 to 406.1 MHz is reserved for use by
distress beacons. Transmissions should not be made
within this frequency band.
Safe radio operation
Switch off the radio:
■
at petrol filling stations or near flammable liquids
or gases
■
in the vicinity of explosive devices and blasting
zones
For your safety
iii
Using a handheld microphone or a radio while driving a
vehicle may violate the laws and legislation that apply in
your country or state. Please check the vehicle
regulations in your area.
Interference with electronic devices
Some electronic devices may be prone to malfunction
due to the lack of protection from RF energy that is
present when your radio is transmitting.
For your safety
Examples of electronic devices that may be affected by
RF energy are:
■
vehicular electronic systems such as fuel injection,
anti-skid brakes, and cruise control
■
medical devices such as hearing aids and pacemakers
■
medical equipment in hospitals or health care facilities.
Consult the manufacturer (or its representative) of the
equipment to determine whether these electronic
circuits will perform normally when the radio is
transmitting.
High temperatures
The bottom surface of the radio and the heatsink fins
can become hot during prolonged operation. Do not
touch these parts of the radio.
Radio protection
Always remove the fuses from the radio power cable
before charging the vehicle battery, connecting a
second battery or using power from another vehicle
(e.g. when “jump-starting” the vehicle).

About your digital radio
You may notice some differences in the way digital and
analog radios perform: the lack of static in low signal
areas and consequently where you notice that coverage
is poor.
Lack of static noise
You may notice the lack of static noise on digital
channels. This lack of static is because your digital radio
removes the “noise” from the transmission so that you
hear only clear voice.
Coverage
A b o u t y o u r ra d i o
With analog radios, a transmission gets progressively
worse when you are in fringe areas or even slightly
outside normal coverage areas. In these circumstances,
you are probably able to still understand the
transmission despite the amount of static because the
human brain can interpret speech even when it is not
perfectly clear.
With digital radios, the signal remains clear and then
drops off quite quickly at the border of a transmission
area. The reason for this is that a digital transmission is
either received or it isn't.
Because of this difference you may notice that digital
radios have different coverage patterns to analog
radios. However, the actual coverage area between an
analog and a digital voice system is very similar.
About your digital radio
Basic operation
