FOR PORTABLE TWO-WAY RADIOS

The information provided in this document supersedes
information contained in user guides published prior to

RF Energy Exposure Awareness and Control

Information and Operational Instructions for

Occupational Use

Note: This radio is intended for use in occupational/
controlled conditions where users have full
knowledge of their exposure and can exercise
control over their exposure to meet the
occupational limits in FCC/ICNIRP and
International standards. This radio device is
NOT authorized for general population
consumer use
This two-way radio uses electromagnetic energy in the
radio frequency (RF) spectrum to provide
communications between two or more users over a
distance. It uses radio frequency (RF) ener gy or radio
waves to send and receive calls. RF energy is one fo rm
of electromagnetic energy. Other forms include, but are
not limited to, sunlight and
x-rays. RF energy, however, shou ld not be confused
with these other forms of electromagnetic energy,
which when used improperly, can cause biological
damage. Very high levels of x-rays, for ex ample, can
damage tissues and genetic material.
Experts in science, engineering, medicine, health, and
industry work with organizations to develop st andards
for safe exposure to RF energy. These stand ards
provide recommended levels of RF exposure for both
workers and the general public. These recommended
RF exposure levels include substantial margins of
protection.
All Motorola two-way radios are designed ,
manufactured, and tested to ensure they meet
government-established RF exposure levels. In
addition, manufacturers also recommend specific
operating instructions to users of two-way radios.
BEFORE USING THIS RADIO, READ
