RF Exposure Safety Statement
RF Exposure Notice:
Do not operate this VHF handheld marine radio without first reading and complying with the warnings
stated on this addendum and within the O/M. Failure to do so may result in illegal and unsafe operation.
SAFETY INFORMATION
Your wireless handheld portable transceiver contains a low power transmitter. When the Push-to-Talk
(PTT) button is pushed, the transceiver sends out radio frequency (RF) signals. In August 1996, the
Federal Communications Commission adopted RF exposure guidelines with safety levels for hand-held
wireless devices.
This device is authorized to operate at a duty factory not to exceed 50% (this corresponds to 50%
transmission time and 50% reception time).
CAUTION: To maintain compliance with the FCC’s RF exposure guidelines, this transmitter and its
antenna must maintain a separation distance of at least 1 inch (2.5 centimeters) from your body when
transmitting. Speak in a normal voice, with the antenna pointed up and away from the face at the required
separation distance.
CAUTION: When attaching the optional speaker microphone accessory, you must attach the two
spacers that are included in this box. First, clean the top area of the belt clip with rubbing alcohol to
remove any build up of dirt or oil. Second, the two spacers must be attached to the top portion of the belt
clip as illustrated in the owners’ manual. This will reduce the amount of RF exposure to work in
compliance with FCC guidelines.
Use only the supplied antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments could damage the
transmitter, and may violate FCC regulations.
