Radio frequency exposure information
For your own safety and to ensure you comply with the
Federal Communication Commission’s (FCC) radio
frequency (RF) exposure guidelines, please read the following
information before using this radio.
Using this radio
You should use this radio only for work-related purposes (it is
not authorized for any other use) and if you are fully aware
of, and can exercise control over, your exposure to RF energy.
To prevent exceeding FCC RF exposure limits, you must
control the amount and duration of RF that you and other
people are exposed to.
It is also important that you:
■ Do not remove the RF exposure label from the radio.
■ Ensure this RF exposure information accompanies the
radio when it is transferred to other users.
■ Do not use the radio if you do not adhere to the guide-
lines on controlling your exposure to RF.
Controlling your exposure to RF energy
This radio emits RF energy or radio waves primarily when
calls are made. RF is a form of electromagnetic energy (as is
sunlight), and there are recommended levels of maximum
RF exposure.
To control your exposure to RF and comply with the maxi-
mum exposure limits for occupational/controlled environ-
ments, follow these guidelines:
■ Do not talk (transmit) on the radio more than the rated
transmit duty cycle. This is important because the radio
radiates more energy when it is transmitting than when
it is receiving.
