SAFETY TRAINING INFORMATION
Your Icom radio generates RF electromagnetic energy during transmit mode. This radio is de- signed for and classified as “Occupational 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.
This radio is NOT intended for use by the “General Popula- tion” in an uncontrolled environment.
This radio has been tested and complies with the FCC RF expo- sure limits for “Occupational Use Only”. In addition, your Icom radio complies with the following Standards and Guidelines with regard to RF energy and electromagnetic energy levels and evaluation of such levels for exposure to humans:
•FCC OET Bulletin 65 Edition
•American National Standards Institute (C95.1 – 1992), IEEE Stan- dard for Safety Levels with Respect to Human Exposure to Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Fields, 3 kHz to 300 GHz.
•American National Standards Institute (C95.3 – 1992), IEEE Rec- ommended Practice for the Measurement of Potentially Hazardous Electromagnetic Fields – RF and Microwave.
To ensure that your exposure to RF electromag- netic energy is within the FCC allowable limits for occupational use, always adhere to the following
C AU TIO N guidelines:
•DO NOT operate the radio without a proper antenna attached, as this may damage the radio and may also cause you to exceed FCC RF exposure limits. A proper antenna is the antenna supplied with
