Potentially Hazardous Electromagnetic Fields – RF
and Microwave.
CAUTION
To ensure that 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
by M/A-COM or an antenna specifically authorized by
M/A-COM 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” indicator appears in the
display. The radio will transmit by pressing the “PTT”
button.
· ALWAYS use M/A-COM authorized accessories
(antennas, batteries, belt clips, speaker/mics, etc).
Use of unauthorized accessories may cause the FCC
Occupational/Controlled Exposure RF compliance
requirements to be exceeded.
