Antenna Information
Antennas should be installed according to the installation
instructions supplied with the equipment. To ensure compliance
with the standards listed above, use only Motorola-approved, supplied
antenna or a Motorola-approved replacement antenna.
Electronic Devices
Most modern electronic equipment, for example, equipment in ambulances,
navigation equipment, and so on, is shielded from RF energy, however, RF
energy from your APX VA may affect some electronic equipment.
Consult your physician or the manufacturer of any personal medical devices
(such as pacemakers, hearing aids, and so on) to determine if they are
adequately shielded from external RF energy. The operation of inadequately
shielded medical devices may be adversely affected when operated near an
APX VA.
Turn the radio OFF in health-care facilities when any regulations posted in
the areas instruct you to do so. Always request permission before using the
radio or APX VA near medical equipment.
RF energy may affect electronics systems in some motor vehicles. Check
with your vehicle manufacturer’s representative to be sure that the APX VA
will not affect your vehicle’s electronic system.
