• DO NOT operate the transmitter in areas that are sensitive to electromagnetic radiation such as
hospitals, aircraft, and blasting sites.
• Portable Device, this transmitter may operate with the antenna(s) documented in this filing in Push-
to-Talk and body-worn configurations. RF exposure compliance is limited to the specific belt-clip
and accessory configurations as documented in this filing and the separation distance between
user and the device or its antenna shall be at least 2.5 cm.
• Mobile Device, during operation, the separation distance between user and the antenna subjects
to actual regulations, this separation distance will ensure that there is sufficient distance from a
properly installed externally-mounted antenna to satisfy the RF exposure requirements.
• Occupational/Controlled Radio, this radio is designed for and classified as "Occupational/Controlled
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; NOT intended for use in a General
population/uncontrolled environment.
• General population/uncontrolled Radio, this radio is designed for and classified as "General
population/uncontrolled Use".
RF Exposure Compliance and Control Guidelines and Operating Instructions
To control your exposure and ensure compliance with the occupational/controlled environment
exposure limits, always adhere to the following procedures.
Guidelines:
• User awareness instructions should accompany the device when transferred to other users.
• Do not use this device if the operational requirements described herein are not met.
Operating Instructions:
• Transmit no more than the rated duty factor of 50% of the time. To Transmit (Talk), push the Push
to Talk (PTT) button. To receive calls (listen), release the PTT button. Transmitting 50% of the time,
or less, is important because the radio generates measurable RF energy exposure only when
transmitting in terms of measuring for standards compliance.
• Transmit only when people outside the vehicle are at least the recommended minimum lateral distance
away from a properly installed according to installation instructions, externally mounted antenna.
• When operating in front of the face, worn on the body, always place the radio in a approved clip,
holder, holster, case, or body harness for this product. Using approved body-worn accessories is
important because the use of approved accessories may result in exposure levels, which exceed
the IEEE/ICNIRP RF exposure limits.
