RF ENERGY EXPOSURE AWARENESS, CONTROL

INFORMATION, AND OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR

FCC OCCUPATIONAL USE REQUIREMENTS

BEFORE USING YOUR MOBILE TWO-WAY RADIO, READ THIS

IMPORTANT RF ENERGY AWARENESS AND CONTROL

INFORMATION AND OPERATIONAL INSTRUCTIONS TO ENSURE

COMPLIANCE WITH THE FCC’S RF EXPOSURE GUIDELINES.

NOTICE: This radio is intended for use in occupational/controlled

conditions, where users have full knowledge of their exposure and can

exercise control over their exposure to meet FCC limits. This radio

device is NOT authorized for general population, consumer, or any other

use.

This two-way radio uses electromagnetic energy in the radio frequency (RF)

spectrum to provide communications between two or more users over a

distance. It uses RF energy or radio waves to send and receive calls. RF

energy is one form of electromagnetic energy. Other forms include, but are

not limited to, electric power, sunlight, and x-rays. RF energy, however,

should not be confused with these other forms of electromagnetic energy,

which, when used improperly, can cause biological damage. Very high levels

of x-rays, for example, can damage tissues and genetic material.

Experts in science, engineering, medicine, health, and industry work with

organizations to develop standards for exposure to RF energy. These

standards provide recommended levels of RF exposure for both workers and

the general public. These recommended RF exposure levels include

substantial margins of protection. All two-way radios marketed in North

America are designed, manufactured, and tested to ensure they meet

government established RF exposure levels. In addition, manufacturers also

recommend specific operating instructions to users of two-way radios. These

instructions are important because they inform users about RF energy

exposure and provide simple procedures on how to control it. Please refer to

the following websites for more information on what RF energy exposure is

and how to control your exposure to assure compliance with established RF

exposure limits.
