Compliance with RF Energy Exposure Standards
Your
Quantun
mobile radio is designed and tested to comply with a number of national
and international standards and guidelines (listed below) regarding human exposure to
radio frequency electromagnetic energy. This radio complies with the IEEE (FCC) and
ICNIRP exposure limits for occupational/controlled RF exposure environment at duty
cycles of up to 50% talk-50% listen and should be used for occupational use only. In terms
of measuring RF energy for compliance with the FCC exposure guidelines, your radio
radiates measurable RF energy only while it is transmitting (during talking), not when it is
receiving (listening) or in standby mode.
