SAFETY & GENERAL INFORMATION Compliance with RF Exposure Standards
• All articles displaying this symbol on the body, packaging or instruction manual of same, must not be thrown away
into normal disposal bins but brought to specialised waste disposal centres. Here, the various materials will be
divided by characteristics and recycles, thus making an important contribution to environmental protection.
• Alle Artikel, die auf der Verpackung oder der Gebrauchanweisung dieses Symbol tragen, dürfen nicht in den
normalen Mülltonnen entsorgt werden,sondern müssen an gesonderten Sammelstellen abgegeben werden. Dort
werden die Materialien entsprechend ihrer Eigenschaften getrennt und, um einen Beitrag zum Umweltschutz zu
liefern, wiederverwertet.
• Tutti gli articoli che riportano questo simbolo sul corpo, sull'imballaggio o sul manuale di istruzioni degli stessi, non
devono essere gettati nei normali contenitori per lo smaltimento ma portati a centri specializzati per lo smaltimento
dei rifiuti. Qui i vari materiali saranno suddivisi per caratteristiche e riciclabili, dando così un importante contributo
alla salvaguardia dell'ambiente.
• Tousles articles présentant ce symbole sur le corps, l'emballage ou le manuel d'utilisation de celuici ne doivent pas
être jetés dans des poubelles normales mais être amenés dans des centres de traitement spécialisés. Là, les
différents matériaux seront séparés par caractéristiques et recyclés, permettant ainsi de contribuer à la protection de
l'environnement.
• Todoslos artículos que exhiban este símbolo en el cuerpo del producto, en el embalaje o en el manual de instruc-
ciones del mismo, no deben ser desechados junto a los residuos urbanos normales sino que deben ser depositados
en los centros de recogida especializados. En estos centros, los materiales se dividirán en base a sus características
y serán reciclados, para así poder contribuir de manera importante a la protección y conservación del medio
ambiente.
• Alle artikelen met dit symbool op de behuizing, verpakking of instructiehandleiding mogen niet in de normale
afvalbakken worden weggegooid, maar moeten naar gespecialiseerde afvalverwerkingscentra worden gebracht.
Hier worden de verschillende materialen opgedeeld in eigenschappen en recyclen, wat een belangrijke bijdrage
levert aan de bescherming van het milieu.
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. Very 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 RADTEL two-way radios are designed, manufactured, and tested to ensure 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.
Please 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: http://www.who.int/en/
Local Government Regulations
When two-way radios are used as a consequence of employment, the Local Government Regulations requires users
to be fully aware of and able to control their exposure to meet occupational requirements. Exposure awareness can
be facilitated by the use of a product label directing users to specific user awareness information. Your Radtel two
way radio has a RF Exposure Product Label. Also, your Radtel user manual, or separate safety booklet includes
information and operating instructions required to control your RF exposure and to satisfy compliance require-
ments.
