In terms of measuring RF energy for compliance with these exposure guidelines, your radio generates
measurable RF energy only while it is transmitting (during talking), not when it is receiving (listening) or in
standby mode.
Federal Communication Commission (FCC) Regulations
The FCC rules require manufacturers to comply with the FCC RF energy exposure limits for two-way radios
before they can be marketed in the U.S.
When two-way radios are used as a consequence of employment, the FCC requires users to be fully aware
of and able to control their exposure to meet occupational requirements. The use of a product label directing
users to specific user awareness information can facilitate exposure awareness. Your Motorola Solutions two-
way radio has Exposure Product Label. Do not remove this RF Exposure Label from the device. Also, your
Motorola Solutions user manual, or separate safety booklet includes information and operating instructions
required to control your RF exposure and to satisfy compliance requirements.
RF Energy Exposure Awareness, Control Information,
and Operational Instructions for Occupational Use
NOTE: This radio is intended for use in occupational/controlled conditions where users have full
knowledge of their exposure and can exercise control over their exposure to meet the occupational
limits in FCC/ICNIRP and International standards. This radio device is not authorized for general
population consumer use.
This two-way radio uses electromagnetic energy in the radio frequency (RF) spectrum to provide
communications between two or more users over a distance. It uses radio frequency (RF) energy or radio
waves to send and receive calls. RF energy is one form of electromagnetic energy. Other forms include, but
are not limited to, sunlight and x-rays. RF energy, however, should not be confused with these other forms of
electromagnetic energy, which when used improperly, can cause biological damage. High levels of x-rays, for
example, can damage tissues and genetic material.
Experts in science, engineering, medicine, health, and industry work with organizations to develop standards
for safe exposure to RF energy. These standards provide recommended levels of RF exposure for both
workers and the general public. These recommended RF exposure levels include substantial margins of
protection.
All Motorola Solutions two-way radios are designed, manufactured, and tested to ensure that they meet
government-established RF exposure levels. In addition, manufacturers also recommend specific operating
instructions to users of two-way radios. These instructions are important because they inform users about RF
energy exposure and provide simple procedures on how to control it.
Refer to the following websites for more information on what RF energy exposure is and how to control your
exposure to assure compliance with established RF exposure limits:

RF Exposure Compliance and Control Guidelines
Always adhere to the following procedures to control RF exposure to yourself and others and also to comply
to the occupational/controlled environment exposure limits.
● Do not remove the RF Exposure Label from the device.
● User awareness instructions should accompany device when transferred to other users.
● Do not use this device if it does not meet the operational requirements.
