Do not operate radio near 
inflammable liquids or in the vicinity of 
explosive devices
During normal use, the radio will subject you to radio 
energy substantially below the level where any kind of 
harm is reported.
To ensure personal safety, please observe the follow-
ing simple rules:
• DO NOT transmit when the antenna is very close 
to, or touching, exposed parts of the body, espe-
cially the face and eyes.
• DO NOT hold the transmit (PTT) key in when not 
actually desiring to transmit.
• DO NOT allow children to play with any radio 
equipment containing a transmitter.
• DO NOT operate radio while driving. It should also 
be noticed that the use of a hand held microphone 
while driving could constitute an offense under the 
Road Traffic Regulation.
When planning the installation of communication 
equipment in a vehicle with one or more air bags:
Important Electromagnetic Emission Information
In August, 1996, The Federal Communications Com-
mission (FCC) adopted an updated safety standard 
for human exposure to radio frequency electromag-
netic energy emitted by FCC regulated equipment. 
Motorola subscribes to this same updated safety 
standard for the use of its products.
In keeping with sound installation practice and to 
maximize radiation efficiency, a one-quarter (1/4) 
wave length antenna should be installed at the center 
of the vehicle roof. If it is necessary to mount the 
antenna on the vehicle's trunk lid, an appropriate 3db 
gain antenna should be used. This installation proce-
dure will assure that vehicle occupants will be 
exposed to radio frequency energy levels lower than 
the limits specified in the standard adopted by the 
FCC in General Docket 79144.
To assure that radio frequency (RF) energy exposure 
to bystanders external to a vehicle is lower than that 
recommended by FCC adopted standard, transmit 
with any mobile radio only when bystanders are at 
least two (2) feet away from a properly installed exter-
nally mounted antenna for radios with less than 50 
watts of output power, or three (3) feet away for radios 
with 50 watts or greater power.
Control Station Operation
In the event of Control Station operation, to assure 
operators and bystanders are exposed to radio fre-
quency (RF) energy levels lower than the limits speci-
