Safety and General Information

Important Information on Safe and Efficient Operation

Read This Information Before Using Your Radio

The information provided in this document supersedes the general safety information contained in user guides published prior to July 2000. For information regarding radio use in a hazardous atmosphere please refer to the Factory Mutual (FM) Approval Manual Supplement or Instruction Card, which is included with radio models that offer this capability.

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

RF Operational Characteristics

Your radio contains a transmitter and a receiver. When it is ON, it receives and transmits radio frequency (RF) energy. The XSeries VHF radios operate in the frequency range of 151-158 MHz, the XSeries UHF radios operate in the frequency range of 461-469 MHz. When you communicate with XU1100 or XV1100 radios the output power level is 1.0 watt, with other XSeries radios the output power level is 2.0 watts.

Transmit and Receive Procedure

Your two-way radio contains a transmitter and a receiver. To transmit (talk), you must push the Push-to-Talk button; to receive (listen), release the Push-to-Talk button.
