nly.” In addition, your Handheld radio complies with the following Standards and Guidelines with re
gard to RF energy and electromagnetic
energy levels and evaluation of such levels for exposure to humans:
• FCC OET Bulletin 65 Edition 01-01 Supplement C, Evaluating Compliance with FCC Guidelines f
or Human Exposure to Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Fields.
• American National Standards Institute (ANSI) (C95.1 1992), IEEE Standard for Safety Levels wit
