156 S1. Important Safety Information
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:
Phone Operation
When placing or receiving a phone call, hold your radio
product as you would a wireline telephone. Speak directly into
the microphone.
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 PTT button. To receive calls, release
the PTT 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.
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.

Turning Off Your Phone Before Flying
Turn off your phone before boarding any aircraft. To prevent
possible interference with aircraft systems, the U.S. Federal
Aviation Administration (FAA) regulations require you to have
permission from a crew member to use your phone while
the plane is on the ground. To prevent any risk of interference,
FCC regulations prohibit using your phone while the plane is in
the air.
Note: Always turn off the phone in healthcare facilities, and
request permission before using the phone near medical
equipment.
