SAFETY TRAINING INFORMATION
WARNING
Your Com-Net Ericsson radio generates RF
electromagnetic energy during transmit mode. This radio
is designed for and classified as “Occupational Use Only,”
meaning it must be used only during the course of
employment by individuals aware of the hazards and the
ways to minimize such hazards. This radio is NOT
intended for use by the “General Population” in an
uncontrolled environment.
This radio has been tested and complies with the FCC RF exposure limits
for “Occupational Use Only.” In addition, your Com-Net Ericsson radio
complies with the following Standards and Guidelines with regard to RF
energy and electromagnetic energy levels and evaluation of such levels for
exposure to humans:
•
FCC OET Bulletin 65 Edition 97-01 Supplement C, Evaluating
Compliance with FCC Guidelines for Human Exposure to Radio
Frequency Electromagnetic Fields.
•
American National Standards Institute (C95.1 – 1992), IEEE Standard
for Safety Levels with Respect to Human Exposure to Radio Frequency
Electromagnetic Fields, 3 kHz to 300 GHz.
•
American National Standards Institute (C95.3 – 1992), IEEE
Recommended Practice for the Measurement of Potentially Hazardous
Electromagnetic Fields – RF and Microwave.
CAUTION
To ensure that your exposure to RF electromagnetic
energy is within the FCC allowable limits for
occupational use, always adhere to the following
guidelines:
•
DO NOT operate the radio without a proper antenna attached, as this
may damage the radio, and may also cause you to exceed FCC RF
exposure limits. A proper antenna is the antenna supplied with this
radio or an antenna specifically authorized by Com-Net Ericsson for
use with this radio.
•
DO NOT transmit for more than 50% of total radio use time (50% duty
cycle). Transmitting more than 50% of the time can cause FCC RF
exposure compliance requirements to be exceeded. The radio is
transmitting when the “TX” LED in the radio’s display is illuminated.
