Speaker Microphone Safety Instruction

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.
