Safety and General Information
Important Information on Safe and Efficient Operation
Read This Information Before Using Your Radio
The information provided in this document supersedes the general safety information contained in user guides published prior to
October 2000. For information regarding radio use in a hazardous atmosphere please refer to the Factory Mutual (FM) Approval
Manual Supplement or Instruction Card, which is included with radio models that offer this capability.
RF Operational Characteristics
Your radio contains a transmitter and a receiver. When it is ON, it receives and transmits radio frequency (RF) energy. That radio
operates in the frequency range of 450 MHz to 470 MHz.
Exposure to Radio Frequency Energy
Your Motorola radio is designed to comply with the following national and international standards and guidelines regarding
exposure of human beings to radio frequency electromagnetic energy (EME):
• United States Federal Communications Commission, Code of Federal Regulations; 47 CFR part 2 sub-part J
• 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
• National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP) of the United States, Report 86, 1986
• International Commission on Non- Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) 1998
• National Radiological Protection Board of the United Kingdom 1995
• Ministry of Health (Canada) Safety Code 6. Limits of Human Exposure to Radiofrequency Electromagnetic Fields in the
Frequency Range from 3 kHz to 300 GHz, 1999
•
12
![](/img.php?id=146642&img=bge.png)
To assure optimal radio performance and to make sure human exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic energy is within the
guidelines set forth in the above standards, always adhere to the following procedures:
Portable Radio Operation and EME Exposure
Antenna Care
Use only the supplied or an approved replacement antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments could
damage the radio and may violate FCC regulations.
DO NOT hold the antenna when the radio is “IN USE”. Holding the antenna affects the effective range.
Two-way Radio Operation
When using your radio as a traditional two-way
radio, hold the radio in a vertical position with
the microphone 2 to 3 inches (5.0 to 7.5 cm)
away from your lips.
Body-worn Operation
To maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure
guidelines, if you wear a radio on your body when
transmitting, always place the radio in a Motorola supplied or approved clip, holder, holster, case, or body harness. Use of
non-Motorola approved accessories may exceed FCC RF exposure guidelines. If you do not use a body-worn accessory,
ensure the antenna is at least 1 inch (2.5 cm) from your body when transmitting.
Approved Accessories
For a list of approved Motorola accessories refer to the two-way radio section of
www.motorola.com/store.
13
Electromagnetic Interference/Compatibility
Note: Nearly every electronic device is susceptible to electromagnetic interference (EMI) if inadequately shielded,
designed or otherwise configured for electromagnetic compatibility.
Facilities
To avoid electromagnetic interference and/ or compatibility conflicts, turn off your radio in any facility where posted notices instruct
you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may be using equipment that is sensitive to external RF energy.
Aircraft
When instructed to do so, turn off your radio when on board an aircraft. Any use of a radio must be in accordance with applicable
regulations per airline crew instructions.
Medical Devices
• Pacemakers
The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that a minimum separation of 6 inches (15 cm) be maintained
between a hand-held wireless radio and a pacemaker. These recommendations are consistent with the independent
research by, and recommendations of, Wireless Technology Research.
Persons with pacemakers should:
• ALWAYS keep the radio more than 6 inches (15 cm) from their pacemaker when the radio is turned ON.
• not carry the radio in the breast pocket.
• use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for interference.
• turn the radio OFF immediately if you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place.
• Hearing Aids
Some wireless radios may interfere with some hearing aids. In the event of such interference, you may want to consult your
hearing aid manufacturer to discuss alternatives.
• Other Medical Devices
If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of your device to determine if it is adequately
shielded from RF energy. Your physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this information.

Operational Warnings
For Vehicles with an Air Bag
Do not place a portable radio in the area over an air bag or in the air bag deployment area. Air bags inflate with great force. If a
portable radio is placed in the air bag deployment area and the air bag inflates, the radio may be propelled with great force and
cause serious injury to occupants of the vehicle.
Potentially Explosive Atmospheres
Turn off your radio prior to entering any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere, unless it is a radio type especially qualified
for use in such areas as “Intrinsically Safe” (for example, Factory Mutual, CSA, or UL Approved). Do not remove, install, or
charge batteries in such areas. Sparks in a potentially explosive atmosphere can cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily
injury or even death.
Note: The areas with potentially explosive atmospheres referred to above include fueling areas such as below decks on
boats, fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities, areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain,
dust or metal powders, and any other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle engine.
Areas with potentially explosive atmospheres are often but not always posted.
Blasting Caps and Areas
To avoid possible interference with blasting operations, turn off your radio when you are near electrical blasting caps, in a
blasting area, or in areas posted: “Turn off two-way radio.” Obey all signs and instructions. 15
Safety and General Use While Driving
Check the laws and regulations on the use of radios in the area where you drive. Always obey them.
When using your radio while driving, please:
• Give full attention to driving and to the road.
• Use hands-free operation, if available.
• Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call if driving conditions so require.
Operational Cautions
Antennas
Do not use any portable radio that has a damaged antenna. If a damaged antenna comes into contact with your skin, a
minor burn can result.
Batteries
All batteries can cause property damage and/ or bodily injury such as burns if a conductive material such as jewelry, keys, or
beaded chains touch exposed terminals. The conductive material may complete an electrical circuit (short circuit) and become
quite hot. Exercise care in handling any charged battery, particularly when placing it inside a pocket, purse, or other container
with metal objects.
