RF EXPOSURE COMPLIANCE AND CONTROL
GUIDELINES AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
To control your exposure and ensure compliance
with the occupational/controlled environment exposure
limits, always adhere to the following procedures.
Guidelines
:
• Do not remove the RF Exposure Label from the
device.
• User awareness instructions should accompany the
device when it is transferred to other users.
• Do not use this device if the operational requirements
described herein are not met.
Operating Instructions
:
• Transmit no more than the rated duty factor of 50% of
the time. To transmit (talk), push the Push-To-Talk
(PTT) button. To receive calls, release the PTT button.
Transmitting 50% of the time, or less, is important
because this radio generates measurable RF energy
exposure only when transmitting (in terms of
measuring for standards compliance).
• Hold the radio in a vertical position in front of face
with the microphone (and the other parts of the radio,
including the antenna) at least one inch (2.5 cm) away
from the nose. Keeping the radio at the proper distance
is important because RF exposures decrease with
distance from the antenna. The antenna should be kept
away from eyes.
• When worn on the body, always place the radio in an
EFJohnson approved clip, holder, holster, case, or
body harness for this product. Using approved body-
worn accessories is important because the use of
EFJohnson or other manufacturer’s non-approved
accessories may result in exposure levels which
exceed the FCC’s occupational/controlled environ-
ment RF exposure limits.
• Use only EFJohnson approved supplied or replace-
ment antennas, batteries, and accessories. Use of non-
EFJohnson approved antennas, batteries, and accesso-
ries may exceed the FCC RF exposure guidelines.
• For a list of EFJohnson approved accessories, see the
service manual or marketing accessory lists or contact
the E.F. Johnson Company

ELECTROMAGNETIC INTERFERENCE
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC rules.
Operation is subject to the condition that this device does
not cause harmful interference. In addition, changes or
modification to this equipment not expressly approved
by the E.F. Johnson Company could void the user’s
authority to operate this equipment (FCC Rules, 47CFR
Part 15.19).
USAGE COMPATIBILITY
DO NOT operate it in areas that are sensitive to RF
energy such as aircraft, hospitals, blasting sites, and fuel
storage sites. Areas with potentially flammable atmo-
spheres are usually, but not always, clearly posted. These
may include gas stations, fuel and chemical storage and
transfer stations, below deck on boats, and areas where
the air contains flammable chemicals or particles such as
grain dust or metal powders.
BATTERY DISPOSAL
Dispose of the nickel metal-hydride (NiMH) battery
used by this radio in accordance with local regulations.
DO NOT dispose of it in fire because it can explode.
Also, do not short the terminals because it may become
very hot.
