9. WARNING
This transceiver generates RF EME while transmitting. RF EME(Radio Frequency Electric &
Magnetic Energy)has the potential to cause slight thermal, or heating effects to any part of your
body less than the recommended distance from this radio transmitter's antenna. RF energy
exposure is determined primarily by the distance to and the power of the transmitting device. In
general, RF exposure is minimized when the lowest possible power is used or transmission time is
kept to the minimum required for consistent communications, and the greatest distance possible
from the antenna to the body is maintain. The transceiver has been designed for and is classified
for Occupational use only. Occupational/controlled exposure limits are applicable to situations in
which persons are exposed to RF energy as a consequence of their employment, and such
persons have been made aware of the potential for exposure and can exercise control over their
exposure. This means you can use the transceiver only if you are aware of the hazards of
operating a transceiver and are familiar in ways to minimize these hazards. This transceiver is not
intended for use by the general public in uncontrolled environments. Uncontrolled environment
exposure limits are applicable to situations in which the general public may be exposed to 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
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.
> While transmitting(holding the PTT switch), always keep the antenna at least 2.5cm (1 inches)
from your body or face ,as well as from any bystanders
> 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 the specified antenna for this transceiver; this may be either the antenna provided
with the transceiver or another antenna authorized by Yeonwha M tech. Use only Yeonwha M
tech authorized accessories (antennas, battery packs,
belt clips)
