Warning:
Compliance with RF Energy Exposure Standards
Your two-way radio is designed and tested to comply with a number of national and international
standards and guidelines (listed below) regarding human exposure to radio frequency
electromagnetic energy.
This radio complies with the IEEE (FCC) and ICNIRP exposure limits for occupational/controlled
RF exposure environment at duty cycles of up to 50% talk-50% listen and should be used for
occupational use only. In terms of measuring RF energy for compliance with the FCC exposure
guidelines, your radio radiates measurable RF energy only while it is transmitting (during talking),
not when it is receiving (listening) or in standby mode.
Note: The approved batteries supplied with this radio are rated for a 5-5-90 duty cycle (5% talk-5%
listen-90% standby), even though this radio complies with the FCC occupational RF exposure limits
at duty cycles of up to 50% talk.
Your two-way radio complies with the following of RF energy exposure standards and
guidelines:
• United States Federal Communications Commission, Code of Federal Regulations; 47CFR part 2
sub-part J
• American National Standards Institute (ANS)/Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers
(IEEE) C95. 1-1992
• Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) C95. 1-1999 Edition
• International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) 1998
• Ministry of Health (Canada) Safety Code 6. Limits of Human Exposure to Radiofrequency
Electromagnetic Fields in the Frequency Range from 3kHz to 300GHz, 1999
• Australian Communications Authority Radiocommunications (Electromagnetic Radiation-Human
Exposure) Standard 1999 (applicable to wireless phones only)
Operational Instructions and Training Guidelines
To ensure optimal performance and compliance with the occupational/controlled environment RF
energy exposure limits in the above standards and guidelines, users should transmit no more than
50% of the time and always adhere to the following procedures:
Transmit and Receive
To transmit (talk), push the Push-To-Talk (PTT) button; to receive, release the PTT button.
Hand-held radio operation
Hold the radio in a vertical position with the microphone one to two inches (2.5 to 5 cm) away from
the lips.
