The radar antenna emits electromagnetic radio frequency (RF) energy that can be harmful,
particularly to your eyes. Never look directly into the antenna aperture from a close distance
while the radar is in operation or expose yourself to the transmitting antenna at a close distance.
Distances at which RF radiation level of 100, 50 and 10 W/m

are given in the table below.
Note: If the antenna unit is installed at a close distance in front of the wheel house, your admin-
istration may require halt of transmission within a certain sector of antenna revolution. This is
possible. Ask your FURUNO representative or dealer to provide this feature.
