Safety Information
The Federal Communications Commission (FCC), with its action in General Docket 79-144, March 13,
1985, has adopted a safety standard for human exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) electromagnetic energy
emitted by FCC regulated equipment. Maxon subscribes to the same safety standard for the use of its
products. Proper operation of this radio will result in user exposure far below the Occupational Safety and
Health Act and Federal Communications Commission limits.
WARNING - DO NOT hold the radio in such a manner that the antenna is next to, or touching, exposed
parts of the body, especially the face or eyes, while transmitting.
WARNING - DO NOT allow children to operate transmitter - equipped radio equipment.
CAUTION - DO NOT operate the radio near unshielded electrical blasting caps or in an explosive
atmosphere unless it is a type especially designed and qualified for such use.
CAUTION - DO NOT press and hold the transmit switch (P-T-T) when not actually wishing to transmit.
NOTE: This radio operates in FCC regulated frequency bands. All radios must be licensed by the
FCC before use. Because this radio contains a transmitter, Federal law prohibits unauthorized use or
adjustments of this radio.
