RF Energy Exposure Awareness and Control Information and
Operational Instructions for Occupational Use
NOTICE: This radio is intended for use in occupational/controlled conditions where
users have full knowledge of their exposure and can exercise control over
their exposure to meet the occupational limits in FCC and International
standards. This radio device is NOT authorized for general population
consumer use.
This two-way radio uses electromagnetic energy in the radio frequency (RF) spectrum to
provide communications between two or more users over a distance.
It applies radio waves or radio frequency (RF) energy to transmit and receive voice calls or
data. RF energy is one form of electromagnetic energy. Other forms include, but are not limited
to, sunlight and x-rays. RF energy, however, should not be confused with these other forms of
electromagnetic energy, which when used improperly, can cause biological damage. Very high
levels of x-rays, for example, can damage tissues and genetic material.
Experts in science, engineering, medicine, health, and industry work with organizations to
develop standards for safe exposure to RF energy. These standards provide recommended
levels of RF exposure for both workers and the general public. These recommended RF
exposure levels include substantial margins of protection.
All Unication two-way radios are designed, manufactured, and tested to ensure they meet
government-established RF exposure levels. Additionally, manufacturers also recommend
specific operating instructions to users of two-way radios. These instructions are essential as
they inform users about RF energy exposure and provide simple procedures on how to control
it.
