To assure op mal radio performance and to ensure that exposure to RF energy is within the guidelines in the
above standards, the following opera ng procedures should be observed:
• Do not operate a transceiver when someone is within the distance noted below of the antenna
(unity gain).
120 cm (approx. 4 feet) for ADL Vantage Pro @ 35 Wa s
30 cm (approx. 12 inches) for ADL Vantage/ADL Vantage Pro @ 2 Wa s - 60 cm
(approx. 2 feet) for ADL Vantage/ADL Vantage Pro @ 4 Wa s
15 cm (approx. 6 inches) for ADL Vantage @ 1 Wa
• Do not operate the transceiver unless all RF connectors are secure and any open connectors
are properly terminated.
• Avoid contact with the antenna while opera ng the transceiver.
• Do not operate the transceiver with a damaged antenna. If a damaged antenna comes in contact
with the skin, a minor burn may result.
