earphones and headphones can cause
hearing loss
Note: Exposure to loud noises from any sour-
ce for extended periods of time may tempora-
rily or permanently affect your hearing. The
louder the radio's volume, the less time is
required before your hearing could be
affected. Hearing damage from loud
noise is sometimes undetectable at
first and can have a cumulative effect.
WARNING
Antennas
•Do not use any portable radio that has a
damaged antenna. If a damaged antenna
comes into contact with the skin when the
radio is in use, a minor burn can result.
Batteries (If appropriate)
•When the conductive material such as
jewelry, keys or chains touch exposed
terminals of the batteries, may complete an
electrical circuit (short circuit the battery) and
become hot to cause bodily injury such as
burns. Exercise care in handling any battery,
particularly when placing it inside a pocket,
purse or other container with metal objects
Long transmission
•When the transceiver is used for long
transmissions, the radiator and chassis will
become hot.
