FCC RF EXPOSURE COMPLIANCE REQUIREMENTS FOR OCCUPATIONAL USE ONLY
The Federal Communications Commission (FCC), with its action in General Docket 93-62, November 7, 1997, has adopted a
safety standard for human exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) electromagnetic energy emitted by FCC regulated equipment.
Proper operation of this radio will result in user exposure far below the Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA) and Federal
Communications Commission limits.
DO NOT transmit for more than 50% of total radio use time (50% duty cycle). Transmitting more than 50% of the time
can cause FCC RF exposure compliance requirements to be exceeded.
This radio is NOT approved for use by the general population in an uncontrolled environment. This radio is restricted
to occupational use, work related operations only where radio operator must have the knowledge to control the user’s
exposure conditions for satisfying the higher exposure limit allowed for occupational use.
When transmitting, hold the radio in a vertical position with its microphone 1 inches (2.5 cm) away from your mouth.
The radio is transmitting when the red LED on the front of the radio is illuminated. You can cause the radio to transmit
by pressing the PTT bar on the radio.
These are required operating configurations for meeting FCC RF exposure compliance. Failure to observe thes
e restrictions means violation.
This device complies with part 15 of FCC rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:(1)
This device may not cause harmful interference and (2) This device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired operation.
