FCC RF EXPOSURE INFORMATION
FCC INFORMATION
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.
(2) This device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired
operation.
Important: Changes or modifications to this unit not
expressly approved by Uniden could void your
authority to operate this unit. Your radio is set up to
transmit a regulated signal on an assigned frequency.
It is against the law to alter or adjust the settings
inside the radio to exceed those limitations. Any
adjustments to your radio must be made by qualified
technicians.
To be safe and sure:
• Never open your radio’s case.
CH
Your radio allows you to listen for weak signals on the
current channel at the press of a key.
Press and hold CALL/MON for 2 seconds. On a
channel that does not have activity, you will hear only
an open-squelch hissing noise and rx displays.
Operating
Frequency
• Never change or replace anything in your radio
except the batteries.
Your radio might cause TV or radio interference even
when it is operating properly. To determine whether
your radio is causing the interference, turn it off. If the
interference goes away, your radio is causing it. Try to
eliminate the interference by moving your radio away
from the receiver. If you cannot eliminate the
interference, the FCC requires that you stop using the
radio.
Hazardous Environments: Do not operate the radio in
hazardous environments. Explosion or fire may result.
Do not operate the radio near unshielded electrical
blasting caps.
Under certain conditions, radios can interfere with
blasting operations and may cause an explosion. Turn
your radio OFF to prevent accidental transmission
when in a blasting area or in areas posted: "Turn off
two-way radio." Construction crews often use remote
control RF devices to set off explosives.
Care and Safety: To clean the radio, use a soft cloth
dampened with water. Do not use cleaners or solvents
because they can harm the body of the unit and leak
inside, causing permanent damage. Use a dry, lintfree cloth to clean the battery contacts. Do not
submerge the unit in water. If the unit gets wet, turn it
off and remove the batteries immediately.
WARNING! Read this information before using the radio.
In August 1996 the Federal Communications Commission (FCC)
of the United States with its action in Report and Order FCC
96-326 adopted an updated safety standard for human exposure
to radio frequency electromagnetic energy emitted by FCC
regulated transmitters. Those guidelines are consistent with the
safety standard previously set by both U.S. and international
standards bodies. The design of the radio complies with the FCC
guidelines and these international standards. Never allow children
to operate the radio without adult supervision and the knowledge
of the following guidelines.
WARNING! It is up to the user to properly operate this radio
transmitter to insure safe operation. Please adhere to the
following: Use only the supplied or an approved antenna.
Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments could
impair call quality, damage the radio, or result in violation of FCC
regulations.
Do not use the radio with a damaged antenna. If a damaged
antenna comes into contact with the skin, a minor burn may
result. Please contact your local dealer for a replacement
antenna.
