•
If you wear a portable radio on your body, ensure the antenna is at least 1 inch from your body
when transmitting.
ELECTROMAGNETIC INTERFERENCE / COMPATIBILITY
Most electronic devices are susceptible to electromagnetic interference (EMI) if inadequately
shielded, designed or otherwise configured for electromagnetic compatibility.
•
Turn off your radio in any facilities where posted notices instruct you to do so. Hospitals or
health care facilities may be using equipment that is sensitive to external RF energy.
•
Turn off your radio when on board aircraft when instructed to do so. Any use of the radio must
be in accordance with airline regulations or crew instructions.

CAUTION
Damaged Antenna
Do not use any radio with a damaged antenna. If a damaged antenna comes in contact with the
skin, a minor burn may result.
Batteries
Do not short circuit exposed terminals of any batteries with any conductive materials. In doing so,
the material may become quite hot and cause property damage and/or body injury such as burns.
WARNING
Parts Replacement or Substitution
Replacement or substitution of parts other than those recommended by CP Tech may cause a
violation of the technical regulations of the ETS-300-296 Rules, or violation of Type Acceptance
requirements of the ETS-300-296 Rules.
Vehicles with an Air Bag
Do not place a portable radio in the area over an air bag or in the air bag deployment area. Air
bags inflate with great force. If a portable radio is placed in the air bag deployment area and the
air bag inflates, the radio may be propelled with great force and cause serious injury to occupants
of vehicle.
Potentially Explosive Atmospheres
Turn your radio off when in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere, unless it is a type
especially qualified for such use. Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting
in body injury or even death.
Batteries
Do not replace or charge batteries in a potentially explosive atmosphere. Contact sparking may
occur while installing or removing batteries and cause an explosion.
