•Disposal
The crossed-out wheeled-bin symbol on your product, literature, or packaging reminds you that in the European Union,
all electrical and electronic products, batteries, and accumulators (rechargeable batteries) must be taken to designated
collection locations at the end of their working life. Do not dispose of these products as unsorted municipal waste.
Dispose of them according to the laws in your area.
IC Requirements:
Licence-exempt radio apparatus
This device contains licence-exempt transmitter(s)/receiver(s) that comply with Innovation, Science and Economic Development
Canada’s licence-exempt RSS(s). Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) This device may not cause interference.
(2) This device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device.
Le présent appareil est conforme aux CNR d’Industrie Canada applicables aux appareils radio exempts de licence. L’exploitation est
autorisée aux deux conditions suivantes :
(1) l’appareil ne doit pas produire de brouillage;
(2) l’utilisateur de l’appareil doit accepter tout brouillage radioélectrique subi, même si le brouillage est susceptible d’en compromettre
le fonctionnement.
RF Exposure Information
•DO NOT operate the radio without a proper antenna attached, as this may damage the radio and may also cause you to exceed RF
exposure limits. A proper antenna is the antenna supplied with this radio by the manufacturer or an antenna specifically authorized by
the manufacturer for use with this radio, and the antenna gain shall not exceed the specified gain by the manufacturer declared.
•DO NOT transmit for more than 50% of total radio use time, more than 50% of the time can cause RF exposure compliance
requirements to be exceeded.
•During transmissions, your radio generates RF energy that can possibly cause interference with other devices or systems. To avoid
such interference, turn off the radio in areas where signs are posted to do so.
•DO NOT operate the transmitter in areas that are sensitive to electromagnetic radiation such as hospitals, aircraft, and blasting sites.
•Portable Device, this transmitter may operate with the antenna(s) documented in this filing in Push-to-Talk and body-worn
configurations. RF exposure compliance is limited to the specific belt-clip and accessory configurations as documented in this filing and
the separation distance between user and the device or its antenna shall be at least 2.5 cm.
•Mobile Device, during operation, the separation distance between user and the antenna subjects to actual regulations, this separation
distance will ensure that there is sufficient distance from a properly installed externally-mounted antenna to satisfy the RF exposure
requirements.
•Occupational/Controlled Radio, this radio is designed for and classified as “Occupational/Controlled Use Only”, meaning it must be
used only during the course of employment by individuals aware of the hazards, and the ways to minimize such hazards; NOT intended
for use in a General population/uncontrolled environment.
•General population/uncontrolled Radio, this radio is designed for and classified as “General population/uncontrolled Use”.
RF Exposure Compliance and Control Guidelines and Operating Instructions
To control your exposure and ensure compliance with the occupational/controlled environment exposure limits, always adhere to the
following procedures.
Guidelines:
•User awareness instructions should accompany the device when transferred to other users.
•Do not use this device if the operational requirements described herein are not met.
Operating Instructions:
•Transmit no more than the rated duty factor of 50% of the time. To Transmit (Talk), push the Push to Talk (PTT) button. To receive calls
(listen), release the PTT button. Transmitting 50% of the time, or less, is important because the radio generates measurable RF energy
exposure only when transmitting in terms of measuring for standards compliance.
•Transmit only when people outside the vehicle are at least the recommended minimum lateral distance away from a properly installed
according to installation instructions, externally mounted antenna.
•When operating in front of the face, worn on the body, always place the radio in a Retevis approved clip, holder, holster, case, or body
harness for this product. Using approved body-worn accessories is important because the use of Non-Retevis approved accessories
may result in exposure levels, which exceed the IEEE/ICNIRP RF exposure limits.
Hand-held Mode
• Hold the radio in a vertical position with the microphone (and other parts of the radio including the antenna) at least 2.5
cm (one inch) away from the nose or lips. The antenna should be kept away from the eyes. Keeping the radio at a proper
distance is important as RF exposure decreases with increasing distance from the antenna.
Phone Mode
•When placing or receiving a phone call, hold your radio product as you would a wireless telephone. Speak directly into the
microphone.
Electromagnetic Interference/Compatibility
NOTE: Nearly every electronic device is susceptible to electromagnetic interference (EMI) if inadequately shielded, designed, or
otherwise configured for electromagnetic compatibility
Avoid Choking Hazard
Small Parts. Not for children under 3 years.
Turn off your radio power in the following conditions:
WARNING
•Turn off your radio before removing (installing) a battery or accessory or when charging battery.
•Turn off your radio when you are in a potentially hazardous environments: Near electrical blasting caps, in a blasting area,
in explosive atmospheres (inflammable gas, dust particles, metallic powders, grain powders, etc.).
•Turn off your radio while taking on fuel or while parked at gasoline service stations.
To avoid electromagnetic interference and/or compatibility conflicts
•Turn off your radio in any facility where posted notices instruct you to do so, hospitals or health care facilities (Pacemakers,
Hearing Aids and Other Medical Devices) may be using equipment that is sensitive to external RF energy.
•Turn off your radio when on board an aircraft. Any use of a radio must be in accordance with applicable regulations per
airline crew instructions.
