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.

Product Operation

When placing or receiving a phone call, hold your radio product as you would a wireline telephone. Speak directly into the microphone.

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.
