maintenance and repairs in the private land mobile and fixed services as certified by an organization representative
of the user of those services.
Replacement of any transmitter component (crystal, semiconductor, etc.) not authorized by the FCC equipment
authorization for this radio could violate FCC rules.

Use of this radio outside the country where it was intended to be distributed is subject to government regulations

Safety Information
Your wireless handheld portable transceiver contains a low power transmitter. When the Push-To-Talk (PTT)
button is pressed, it sends out radio frequency signals. The device is authorized to operate at a duty factor not to
exceed fifty percent. In August 1996, the Federal Communications Commission adopted RF exposure guidelines
with safety levels for handheld wireless devices.
Cautions:
To maintain compliance with the FCC’s RF exposure guidelines, hold the transmitter and antenna at least 2 inches
from your face and speak in a normal voice, with the antenna pointed up and away from your face. If you wear the
handset on your body while using the headset accessory, use only the supplied belt clip for this product and when
transmitting, take it out of the belt to ensure the antenna is at least 1 inch (2.5cm) from your body.
Use only the supplied antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments could damage the
transmitter and may violate FCC regulations.
NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to
Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a
residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed
and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause
harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the
user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
o
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
o
Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
o
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is needed.
o
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
