Occupational/Controlled Use
This product is used in situations that users are exposed to RF as
consequence of their employment provided those users are fully aware
of the potential RF hazards and can exercise control over their exposure.
•
This transceiver is NOT ATEX approved and NOT intended for the use
in hazardous explosive atmospheres.
Electromagnetic Interference/Compatibility
Electronic devices are susceptible to electromagnetic interference (EMI)
if they are not adequately shielded or designed for electromagnetic
compatibility. Because this transceiver generates RF energy, it can cause
interference to such equipment.
•
Turn OFF your transceiver where signs are posted to do so.
Hospitals and health care facilities use equipment that is sensitive to
electromagnetic radiation.
IMPORTANT:
Not all features are available to users due to programming. The units
are programmed by the dealer before sales therefore some features
may be prohibited for manual access by the users. For this reason, it
is suggested that users learn how to operate the units directly from the
dealer who programmed the functions and channels. Please contact the
dealer for any technical inquiry because the distributor and manufacturer
are notaware of the details of dealer-programming.
CAUTION:
The following list provides you with the information required to ensure
that you are aware of RF exposure and of how to operate this transceiver
so that the FCC RF exposure limitations are not exceeded.
• The electro-magnetic exposure of this device may exceed the
standards of the hazard level when transmitting at the high-power setting
while connected to a unity gain antenna at a distance of 63cm (24.8
inch) or less from the operator. Furthermore, the hazardous RF exposure
level depends on the conditions of the combination of the antenna gain,
distance from the operator, output setting and installation environment,
therefore the operator may be exposed to stronger RF even at a
distance of more than 63cm. For safety purpose, it is recommended
that the antenna be installed outside of, and as far as possible from,
the operator’s area. Avoid using an excessively high-gained antenna in
case the distance between the operator and the antenna is very limited.
Always use the minimum necessary output power for communications.
• Do not transmit for more than 50% of the total transceiver use time;
transmitting over 50% of the total use time may exceed the limits in
accordance to the FCC RF exposure requirements. Nominal transceiver
operation is 5% transmission time, 5% reception time, and 90% stand-by
time.
• Use only Alinco authorized accessories The use of other than
recommended or approved body- worn accessories may result in RF
exposure levels which exceed the FCC's occupational/ controlled
environment RF exposure limits.
RF energy, or in which the persons who are exposed as a consequence
of their employment may not be fully aware of the potential for exposure
or cannot exercise control over their exposure.
