•DO NOT transmit for more than 50% of total radio use time, more than 50%
of the time can cause RF exposure compliance requirements to be exceeded.
•During transmissions, your radio generates RF energy that can possibly
cause interference with other devices or systems. To avoid such interference,
turn off the radio in areas where signs are posted to do so.
•DO NOT operate the transmitter in areas that are sensitive toelectromagnetic
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/Con trolled 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 (if applicable):
•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 Retevis approved clip, holder, holster, case, or body harness for this
product. Using approved body-worn accessories is important because the use
of Non-Retevis approved accessories may result in exposure levels, which
