Safety Information
Your Handheld Radio generates RF electromagnetic energy during transmit
mode. This radio is designed for and classified as “ Occupational Use Only”,
meaning it must be used only during the course of employment by individuals
aware of the hazards, and the ways to minimize such hazards. This radio is NOT
intended for use by the “General Population” in an uncontrolled environment.
This radio has been tested and complies with the FCC RF exposure limits for
“Occupational Use Only.” In addition, your Handheld radio complies with the following
Standards and Guidelines with regard 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 for Human Exposure to Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Fields.
• American National Standards Institute (ANSI) (C95.1 1992), IEEE Standard for
Safety Levels with Respect to Human Exposure to Radio Frequency Electromagnetic
Fields, 3 kHz to 300 GHz.
• American National Standards Institute (C95.3 1999), IEEE Recommended Practice for
the Measurements of Potentially Hazardous Electromagnetic Fields — RF and
Microwave.
To ensure that your exposure to RF electromagnetic energy is within the FCC
allowable limits for occupational use, always adhere to the following guidelines:
DO NOT operate the radio without a proper antenna attached, as this may damage the
radio and may also cause you to exceed FCC RF exposure limits. A proper antenna is
the antenna supplied with the radio by the manufacturer or an antenna specifically
authorized by the manufacturer for use with this radio.
For body worn operation, this handheld radio has been tested and meets the FCC RF
exposure guidelines when used with the TTI or authorized OEM dealers accessories
supplied or designated for this product. Use of other accessories may not ensure
compliance with FCC RF exposure guideline.
To provide the recipients of your transmission the best sound quality, hold the antenna
at least 2.5 cm (1 inch) from your mouth.
USE ONLY authorized accessories (speaker/microphones, handstraps, etc.) with your
radio. Use of unauthorized accessories can cause the FCC RF exposure compliance
requirements to be exceeded.
The information listed above provides the user with the information needed to
make him or her aware of RF exposure, and what to do to assure that this radio
operates within the FCC RF exposure limits of the radio.
