Product Safety and RF Exposure for Portable Two-Way Radios Compliance with

RF Energy Exposure Standards

NOTICE: This radio is intended for use in occupational/controlled applications where

users have been made aware of the potential for exposure and can exercise control over

their exposure. This radio device is NOT authorized for general population, consumer or

similar use.

BEFORE USING THIS RADIO, READ THE TRAINING MATERIAL BELOW WHICH CONTAINS

IMPORTANT OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS FOR SAFE USAGE AND RF ENERGY AWARENESS AND

CONTROL INFORMATION FOR COMPLIANCE WITH RF ENERGY EXPOSURE LIMITS IN APPLICABLE

NATIONAL AND INTERNATIONAL STANDARDS.

Federal Communication Commission (FCC) Regulations

The FCC has established limits for safe exposure to radio frequency (RF) emissions

from portable two-way radios. The FCC requires manufacturers to demonstrate

compliance with RF exposure limits before portable two-way radios can be marketed in

the U.S. When two-way radios are approved for occupational/controlled environment

exposure limits, the FCC requires users to be fully aware of, and exercise control over,

their exposure. Awareness and control of RF exposure can be accomplished by the use

of labels, or by education and training through appropriate means such as information

and instructions in user manuals or safety booklets. Your Advanced Wireless Commu-

nications’ two-way radio has an RF exposure information label in the battery

compartment. The training material below includes useful information about RF

exposure and helpful instructions on how to control your RF exposure. Your Advanced

Wireless Communications two-way radio is designed and tested to comply with a

number of national and international standards and guidelines (listed below) regarding

human exposure to RF electromagnetic energy. In terms of measuring RF energy for

compliance with 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.

Compliance and Control Guidelines and Operating Instructions for Portable Two-Way

Radios To control your exposure and ensure compliance with the occupational/con-

trolled environment exposure limits, always adhere to the following procedures:

*Transmit no more than 50% of the time. To transmit (talk), push the PushTo-Talk (PTT)

button. To receive calls, release the PTT button. Transmitting 50% of the time or less is

important since the radio generates measurable RF energy exposure only when

transmitting (in terms of measuring standards compliance).

*If you are using the radio held in front of

minimum of cm from the face when

*Use only FCC-approved, supplied or replacement headsets, batteries, and accessories

intended for use with this radio. Use of non-FCC approved headsets, batteries and

accessories may exceed FCC RF exposure guidelines.

FCC License Information

Your Advanced Wireless Communications radio operates on communications

frequencies which are subject to FCC (Federal Communications Commission) Rules &

Regulations. FCC Rules require that all operators using Private Land Mobile radio

frequencies obtain a radio license before operating their equipment. Application for

license must be made on FCC form 601, and schedules D, E, and G.

FAX: Forms can be obtained by fax from the FCC Fax-On-Demand system. Call 1-202-

418-0177 from your fax machine and request document number 000600 for the form,

schedules, and instructions.

MAIL: Forms can be ordered by telephone, and will be sent to you by first class mail.

Call the FCC Forms Hotline at 1-800-418-FORM (1-800-418-3676).

INTERNET: Form 601 and instructions can be downloaded from the FCC Forms website

at: http://www.fcc.gov/Forms/Form601/601.html

Before filling out your Form 601 application Technical Data section, you must

decide which frequency (or frequencies) you will operate on.

Questions? Call the FCC for license application questions at 1-888-CALL-FCC (1-888-

Notices to The User

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the

following two conditions:

(1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and

(2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may

cause undesired operation.

One or more of the following statements may be applicable:

FCC WARNING

This equipment generates or uses radio frequency energy. Changes or modifications to

this equipment may cause harmful interference unless the modifications are expressly

approved in the instruction manual. The user could lose the authority to operate this

equipment if an unauthorized change or modification is made.

IC Warning :

This device complies with Industry Canada licence-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is

subject to the following two conditions:

Under Industry Canada regulations, this radio transmitter may only operate using an

antenna of a type and maximum (or lesser) gain approved for the transmitter by Industry

Canada. To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its

gain should be so chosen that, the equivalent isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.)

is not more than that necessary for successful communication.

Conformément à la réglementation d'Industrie Canada, le présent émetteur radio peut fonctionner

avec une antenne d'un type et d'un gain maximal (ou inférieur) approuvé pour l'émetteur par Industrie Canada.

Dans le but de réduire les risques de brouillage radioélectrique à l'intention des autres utilisateurs,

il faut choisir le type d'antenne et son gain de sorte que la puissance isotrope rayonnée équivalente (p.i.r.e.)

ne dépasse pas l'intensité nécessaire à l'établissement d'une communication satisfaisante.

INFORMATION TO THE DIGITAL DEVICE USER REQUIRED BY THE FCC

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 residential installations. This

equipment generates, uses and can generate 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 the 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:

·Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

·Connect the equipment to an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver

is connected.

·Consult with the dealer for technical assistance.

SAFETY INFORMATION:

Your wireless portable two-way radio has been designed using a low power transmitter.

When the PTT switch is pressed, the radio generates radio frequency (RF)

electromagnetic energy (EME). This radio is designed to comply with the FCC Report

and Order FCC 96-326 (August, 1996).
