To maintain compliance with the FCC's RF exposure guidelins, this transmitter and it’s antenna must maintaina a separation distance of least 2 inches (5 centimeters) from your face. Speak in a normal voice, with the antenna pointed up and away from the face at the required separation distance. The beltclip is for storage purposes only. DO NOT TRANSMIT WHILE USING THE BELT CLIP. To transmit, hold the device away from your body and ensure the antenna is at least least 2 inches (5 centimeters) from your body when transmitting.
