SAFETY AND GENERAL INFORMATION 
Product Operation 
This section contains important information on the safe and efficient operation of 
your mobile device. Read this information before using your integrated multi-service 
portable radio.* 
When placing or receiving a phone call, hold your radio product as you would a wire 
line telephone. 
Speak directly into the microphone. 
Exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) Energy 
 
If you wear a radio product on your body when transmitting, always place the radio 
product in a Motorola approved clip, holder, holster, case or body harness. If you 
do not use a body-worn accessory supplied or approved by Motorola and are not 
using the radio product in the intended use positions along side the head in 
the phone mode or in front of the face in the two-way radio mode—or if you hang 
your device from a lanyard around your neck—keep the device at least 2.5 
centimeters (1 inch) from your body when transmitting. 
Your phone contains a transmiter and receiver. When it is ON, it receives and 
transmits RF energy. When you communicate with your phone, the system 
handling your call controls the power level at which your phone transmits. 
Your Motorola phone is designed to comply with local regulatory requirements 
in your country concerning exposure of human beings to RF energy. 
 
ALL MODELS WITH FCC ID IHDT56KQ1 MEET THE 
GOVERNMENT’S REQUIREMENTS FOR EXPOSURE TO 
RADIO WAVES. 
Portable Radio Product Operation and 
EME Exposure 
Your Motorola radio product is designed to comply with the following national 
and international standards and guidelines regarding exposure of human beings 
to radio frequency electromagnetic energy (EME): 
Your wireless phone is a radio transmitter and receiver. It is designed and 
manufactured not to exceed the emission limits for exposure to radiofrequency 
(RF) energy set by the Federal Communications Commission of the U.S. 
Government. These limits are part of comprehensive guidelines and establish 
permitted levels of RF energy for the general population. The guidelines are based 
on standards that were developed by independent scientific organizations through 
periodic and thorough evaluation of scientific studies. The standards include a 
substantial safety margin designed to assure the safety of all persons, regardless of 
age and health.

The exposure standard for wireless mobile phones employs a unit of measurement 
known as the Specific Absorption Rate, or SAR. The SAR limit set by the FCC is 
1.6W/kg.

 Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions 
reviewed by the FCC with the phone transmitting at its highest certified power level 
in all tested frequency bands. Although the SAR is determined at the highest 
certified power level, the actual SAR level of the phone while operating can be 
well below the maximum value. This is because the phone is designed to 
operate at multiple power levels so as to use only the power required to reach 
the network. In general, the closer you are to a wireless base station antenna, the 
lower the power output.

certified to the FCC that is does not exceed the limit established by the 
government-adopted requirement for safe exposure. The tests are performed in 
positions and locations (e.g., at the ear and worn on the body) as required by the 
FCC for each model. The highest SAR value for this model phone when tested

The FCC has granted an Equipment Authorization for this model phone with all 
reported SAR levels evaluated as in compliance with the FCC RF exposure 
guidelines. SAR information on this model phone is on file with the FCC and 
can be found under the Display Grant section of

Operational Precautions 
To assure optimal radio product performance and to be sure that human exposure 
to RF does not exceed the guidelines set forth in the relevant standards, always 
follow these instructions and precautions : 
Two-way radio operation 
Your radio product has been designed and tested to comply with national and 
international standards and guidelines regarding human exposure to RF 
electromagnetic energy, when operated in the two-way mode (at the face, or at 
the abdomen when using an audio accessory) at usage factors of up to 50% 
talk/50% listen. 
Transmit no more than the rated duty factor of 50% of the time. To transmit 
(talk), push the Walkie-Talkie (WT) button. To receive calls, release the WT 
button. Transmitting 50% of the time or less, is important because this radio 
generates measurable RF energy only when transmitting (in terms of measuring 
for standards compliance). 
When using your radio product as a traditional 
two-way radio, hold the radio product in a vertical 
position with the microphone one to two inches (2.5 
to 5 cm) away from the lips.
