TransTransmitit and ReceiveeceiveProcedureProcedure

Your two-way radio contains a transmitter and a receiver. To control your exposure and ensure compliance with the general population/uncontrolled environment exposure limits, always adhere to the following procedure:

•Transmit no more than 50% of the time.

•To receive calls, release the PTT button.

•To transmit (talk), press the Push to Talk (PTT) button.

Transmitting 50% of the time, or less, is important because the radio generates measurable RF energy exposure only when transmitting (in terms of measuring standards compliance).

Your Oricom two-way radio complies with Australian Communications Authority Radiocommunications

(Electromagnetic Radiation-Human Exposure) Standard, 2003.

To assure optimal radio performance and make sure human exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic energy is within the guidelines set out in the above standards always adhere to the following procedures.

Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments could damage the radio and violate compliance.

Do NOT hold the antenna when the radio is “IN USE.” Holding the antenna affects the effective range.

Do not use the radio if the antenna is damaged. If a damaged antenna makes contact with your skin, a minor burn can result.

If you wear a radio on your body when transmitting, always fit the radio on the belt clip (supplied). Always ensure the radio and it's antenna are at least 2.5 cm from your body when transmitting.
