SAFETY TRAINING INFORMATION
ii
•DO NOT operate the radio without a proper antenna attached, as
this may damaged the radio and may also cause you to exceed FCC
RF exposure limits. A proper antenna is the antenna supplied with
this radio by the manufacturer or antenna specifically authorized by
the manufacturer for use with this radio.
•DO NOTtransmitformorethan50%oftotalradiousetime(“50%
dutycycle”).Transmittingmorethan50%ofthetimecancauseFCC
RF exposure compliance requirements to be exceeded. The radio
is transmitting when the “TX indicator” lights red. You can cause the
radio to transmit by pressing the “PTT” switch.
•ALWAYS keeptheantennaatleast2.5cm(1inch)awayfrom
thebodywhentransmittingandonlyusetheIcombelt-clipwhich
islistedonpage38whenattachingtheradiotoyourbelt,etc.,
to ensure FCC RF exposure compliance requirements are not
exceeded. To provide the recipients of your transmission the best
soundquality,holdtheantennaatleast5cm(2inches)fromyour
mouth, and slightly off to one side.
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 with the FCC RF exposure limits of this
radio.
Electromagnetic Interference/Compatibility
During transmissions, your Icom radio generates RF energy that can
possibly cause interference with other devices or systems. To avoid
such interference, turn off the radio in areas where signs are posted
to do so. DO NOT operate the transmitter in areas that are sensitive to
electromagnetic radiation such as hospitals, aircraft, and blasting sites.
Occupational/Controlled Use
The radio transmitter is used in situations in which persons are exposed
as consequence of their employment provided those persons are fully
aware of the potential for exposure and can exercise control over their
exposure.
