Safety and General Information

IMPORTANT INFORMATION ON SAFE AND EFFICIENT OPERATION READ THIS INFORMATION BEFORE USING YOUR RADIO

The information provided in this document supersedes the general safety information contained in user guides published prior to July 2000. For information regarding radio use in a hazardous atmosphere please refer to the Factory Mutual (FM) Approval Manual Supplement or Instruction Card, which is included with radio models that offer this capability.

Transmit and Receive Procedure

Your two-way radio contains a transmitter and a receiver. To transmit (talk), you must push the Push-to-Talk button; to receive (listen), release the Push-to-Talk button.

Exposure To Radio Frequency Energy

Your Motorola radio is designed to comply with the following national and international standards and guidelines regarding exposure of human beings to radio frequency electromagnetic energy:

United States Federal Communications Commission, Code of Federal Regulations; 47 CFR part 2 sub-part J

Safety and General Information

Safety and General Information

American National Standards Institute (ANSI) / Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) C95. 1-1992

Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) C95.1-1999 Edition

National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP) of the United States, Report 86, 1986

International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) 1998

Ministry of Health (Canada) Safety Code 6. Limits of Human Exposure to Radiofrequency Electromagnetic Fields in the Frequency Range from 3 kHz to 300 GHz, 1999

Australian Communications Authority Radiocommunications (Electromagnetic Radiation - Human Exposure) Standard 1999 (applicable

to wireless phones only)

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

PORTABLE RADIO OPERATION AND EME EXPOSURE Antenna Care

Use only the supplied or an approved replacement antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments could damage the radio and may violate FCC regulations.

2

DO NOT hold the antenna when the radio is “IN USE.” Holding the antenna affects call quality and may cause the radio to operate at a higher power level than needed.

Two-way Radio Operation

When using your radio as a traditional two-way radio, hold the radio in a vertical position with the microphone one to two inches (2.5 to 5 cm) away from the lips.

Body-worn Operation

To maintain compliance with FCC/Health Canada RF exposure guidelines, if you wear a radio on your body when transmitting, always place the radio in a Motorola supplied or approved clip, holder, holster, case, or body harness for this product. Use of non-Motorola-approved accessories may exceed FCC/Health Canada RF exposure guidelines. If you do not use one of the Motorola-supplied or approved body-worn accessories, and are not using the radio held in the normal use position, ensure the radio and its antenna are at least one inch (2.5 cm) away from your body when transmitting.

Data Operation

When using any data feature of the radio, with or without an accessory cable, position the radio and its antenna at least one inch (2.5 cm) away from the body.

Approved Accessories

For a list of approved Motorola accessories visit our website at www.mot.com.

Safety and General Information

ELECTROMAGNETIC INTERFERENCE/COMPATIBILITY

Note: Nearly every electronic device is susceptible to electromagnetic interference (EMI) if inadequately shielded, designed or otherwise configured for electromagnetic compatibility.

FACILITIES

To avoid electromagnetic interference and/or compatibility conflicts, turn off your radio in any facility where posted notices instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may be using equipment that is sensitive to external RF energy.

AIRCRAFT

When instructed to do so, turn off your radio when on board an aircraft. Any use of a radio must be in accordance with applicable regulations per airline crew instructions.

MEDICAL DEVICES

Pacemakers

The Advanced Medical Technology Association recommends that a minimum separation of 6 inches (15 centimeters) be maintained between a handheld wireless radio and a pacemaker. These recommendations are consistent with the independent research by, and recommendations of, the United States Food and Drug Administration.

4

Persons with pacemakers should:

ALWAYS keep the radio more than six inches (15 centimeters) from their pacemaker when the radio is turned ON.

not carry the radio in the breast pocket.

use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for interference.

turn the radio OFF immediately if you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place.

Hearing Aids

Some digital wireless radio may interfere with some hearing aids. In the event of such interference, you may want to consult your hearing aid manufacturer to discuss alternatives.

Other Medical Devices

If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of your device to determine if it is adequately shielded from RF energy. Your physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this information.

Safety and General Use While Driving

Check the laws and regulations on the use of radio in the area where you drive. Always obey them.

When using your radio while driving, please:

Give full attention to driving and to the road.

Use hands-free operation, if available.

Safety and General Information

5

Safety and General Information

Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call if driving conditions so require.

OPERATIONAL WARNINGS

FOR VEHICLES WITH AN AIR BAG

Do not place a portable radio in the area over an air bag or in the air bag deployment area. Air bags inflate with great force. If a portable radio is placed in the air bag deployment area and the air bag inflates, the radio may be propelled with great force and cause serious injury to occupants of the vehicle.

POTENTIALLY EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERES

Turn off your radio prior to entering any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere, unless it is a radio type especially qualified for use in such areas as “Intrinsically Safe.” Do not remove, install, or charge batteries in such areas.

Sparks in a potentially explosive atmosphere can cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death.

Note: The areas with potentially explosive atmospheres referred to above include fueling areas such as below decks on boats, fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities, areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust or metal powders, and any other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle engine. Areas with potentially explosive atmospheres are often but not always posted.

6

BLASTING CAPS AND AREAS

To avoid possible interference with blasting operations, turn off your radio when you are near electrical blasting caps, in a blasting area, or in areas posted: “Turn

off two-way radio.” Obey all signs and instructions. OPERATIONAL CAUTIONS

ANTENNAS

Do not use any portable radio that has a damaged antenna. If a damaged antenna comes into contact with your skin, a minor burn can result.

BATTERIES

All batteries can cause property damage and/or bodily injury such as burns if a conductive material such as jewelry, keys, or beaded chains touch exposed terminals. The conductive material may complete an electrical circuit (short circuit) and become quite hot. Exercise care in handling any charged battery, particularly when placing it inside a pocket, purse, or other container with metal objects.

BATTERY CHARGER SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Save these Charger Instructions

1.Do not expose the charger to rain or snow.

2.Do not operate the charger if it has received a sharp blow, or has been dropped or damaged in any way.

3.Do not disassemble the charger if it has received a sharp blow, or has been dropped or damaged in any way.
