Safe Use of Your Unit
Carrying the unit
Due to radio frequency emissions, it is unsafe to operate the radio
with the unit in a holster, dangling from a lanyard, or with any
method that keeps the powered unit in very close proximity to the
head or torso. For safe operation, carry the unit in your hand with
the antennas located at least 20 cm (~8 inches) from the head or
torso. See the following illustration for the correct and incorrect
way to operate the unit.

Please do not attempt to dismantle the unit for repair. There are no
user-serviceable parts inside. For service, please use the contact
details listed on the last page of this manual or your local dealer.
Battery safety
• Use only the battery supplied with your unit to power the unit.
Use of other power sources could damage the unit, void your
warranty and pose safety hazards.
• Caution: Do not attempt to disassemble the battery pack. There
are no user serviceable parts in the battery pack. If it is defective
return it to the manufacturer for service. Disassembly or
modification of the pack could pose safety hazards of burn, fire
and exposure to harmful chemicals.
• Handle a damaged or leaking battery with extreme care. If the
electrolyte comes in contact with your skin, wash the exposed
area with soap and water. If it comes in contact with the eye, flush
the eye with water for 15 minutes and seek medical attention.
