Safety

Your 900 MHz BCR is ergonomically designed for safe, comfortable

use. However, as with all equipment, you should follow good

working practices while using it.

Some people experience discomfort while using electronic

equipment. If ignored, this discomfort can lead to repetitive stress

injury (RSI), also known as cumulative trauma disorder or repetitive

motion injury.

Minimize the risk by following these guidelines:

• Maintain good posture while using the radio. Keep your fingers

and body relaxed whenever possible.

• Avoid keeping your muscles tense for long periods. Change

tasks often to avoid prolonged muscle strain. Support the radio

while using it.

• Take frequent short breaks. Use these breaks to exercise the

muscles in your hands, arms, shoulders, neck, and back.

AC Power Adapter

The 900 MHz BCR’s AC power adapter (see Unpacking Your 900

MHz Belt Clip Radio on page 3) is safe and simple to use.

Follow these instructions to help insure your safety and extend the

life of the adapter:

• Use the adapter indoors only.

• Avoid spilling liquid on the adapter.

Do not connect it if it is damp.

• Make sure ventilation around the adapter is not restricted while it

is in use.

• Use only the AC adapter supplied with your 900 MHz BCR.

Do not substitute an alternative or unapproved adapter; this may

damage the BCR and void the warranty.
