FCC RF EXPOSURE COMPLIANCE REQUIREMENTS FOR
OCCUPATIONAL USE ONLY
The FCC has adopted a safety standard for human exposure to RF energy. Proper operation of this radio under normal conditions results in user exposure to RF energy below the Occupational Safety and Health Act and Federal Communication Commission limits.
Mandatory Safety Instructions to Installers and Users:
This radio is NOT approved for use by the general population in an uncontrolled environment. This radio is restricted to occupational use and work related operations only. Radio operators must have the knowledge to control their exposure conditions and the exposure conditions of bystanders and/or passengers to satisfy the lower exposure limit allowed for General Population.
To comply with FCC RF exposure limits, DO NOT operate the transmitter of this mobile radio when a person outside the vehicle is within 36 inches (92 centimeters) of the antenna.
The antenna supplied by the manufacturer or radio dealer must be mounted at a location such that during radio transmission, no person or persons can come closer than the above indicated minimum safe distance to the antenna, i.e. 36 inches. To comply with current FCC RF exposure limits, the antenna must be installed at or exceeding the minimum safe distance stated above, and in accordance with the requirements of the antenna manufacturer or supplier.
Vehicle Installation Instructions:
The antenna used for this transmitter must be mounted on the center of the roof ONLY and must be installed in vehicle having the following characteristics in order to prevent bystanders and passengers from being exposed to levels exceeding the limits for General Population/Uncontrolled Exposure environment:
1.All passengers must be sitting under a solid metal roof.
2.Rooftop width must be at least 72 inches (183 centimeters) OR the edges of the physical boundary of the vehicle must be at least 72 inches apart.
DO NOT operate the radio without the proper antenna installed. Do not substitute any antenna for the one supplied or recommended by the manufacturer or radio dealer. The antenna gain must not exceed 0 dBd. By not following the antenna recommendations you may be exposing person(s) to excess radio frequency radiation. You may contact your radio dealer or the manufacturer for further instructions.
DO NOT transmit more than 50% of total radio use time (50% duty cycle). Transmitting for more than 50% of the time can cause FCC RF exposure compliance requirements to be exceeded. This radio is transmitting whenever the TX/Busy indicator is red or the
7icon is displayed. Pressing the PTT switch on the side of the microphone normally causes the radio to transmit.
The preceding information is provided to make you aware of RF exposure and how to ensure that this radio is operated within FCC RF exposure limits.
