SAFETY TRAINING INFORMATION
Your Icom 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 Icom 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:
•FCCOETBulletin65Edition97-01SupplementC,Evaluating
Compliance with FCC Guidelines for Human Exposure to Radio

To ensure that your expose to RF electromagnetic
energy is within the FCC allowable limits for
occupational use, always adhere to the following
guidelines:
