Q Ensure this RF exposure information accompanies the radio when it is transferred to other users. Q Do not use the radio if you do not adhere to the guidelines on controlling your exposure to RF. Controlling your exposure to RF energy This radio emits radio frequency (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.
Q Use the radio only with Tait-approved antennas and attachments, and make only authorized modifications to the antenna otherwise you could damage the radio and violate FCC regulations. For more information on what RF energy is and how to control your exposure to it, visit the FCC website at http://www.fcc.gov/oet/rfsafety/rf-faqs.html.
