oduct Safety and RF Exposure for Portable Two-Way Radios Compliance with
Pr
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 APPLICA‐
BLENATIONALANDINTERNATIONALSTANDARDS.
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
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
exposure limits before portable two-way radios can be marketed in the U.S.
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/controlled
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).
* For body-worn operation, always place the radio in an AWR approved belt-clip or
milar accessory that contains no metallic components.
si
AWR approved accessories, antennas, and device combinations comply with the
occupational/controlled environment RF ex
accessories may result in exposure
occupational/controlled environment RF exposure limits. AWR-approved accessories
levels which exceed the FCC’s
posure limits. Using non-AWR approved
have been tested and comply with FCC RF exposure requirements.
*If you are not using a body-worn accessory and are not using the radio held in front of
the face, ensure the radio is kept at a minimu
m of
2.5 cm from the body when transmitting.
Keeping the radio at a proper distance is important since RF exposure decreases with
increasing distance from the antenna.
*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.
Hold the radio in a vertical position in front of face with the microphone (and the other parts of
the radio, including the antenna) at least one inch (2.5 cm) away from the nose. Keeping the
radio at the proper distance is important because RF exposures decrease with distance from the
antenna. Antenna should be kept away from eyes.
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
(1-888-225-5322).

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 RSS warning
This device complies with Industry Canada licence-exempt RSS standard (s).
Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause
interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference,including interference
that may cause undesired operation of the device.
Le présent appareil est conforme aux CNR d'Industrie Canada applicables aux
appareils radio exempts de licence.
L'exploitation est autorisée aux deux conditions suivantes:
(1) l'appareil ne doit pas produire de brouillage, et
(2) l'utilisateur de l'appareil doit accepter tout brouillage radioélectrique subi, même si le
brouillage est susceptible d'en compromettre le fonctionnement.
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.
This radio transmitter (identify the device by certification number, or model number if
Category II) has been approved by Industry Canada to operate with the antenna types
listed below with the maximum permissible gain and required antenna impedance for
each antenna type indicated. Antenna types not included in this list, having a gain
greater than the maximum gain indicated for that type, are strictly prohibited for use with
this device.

numéro de modèle s'il fait partie du matériel de catégorie I) a été approuvé par Industrie
Canada pour fonctionner avec les types d'antenne énumérés ci-dessous et ayant un
gain admissible maximal etl'impédance requise pour chaque type d'antenne. Les types
d'antenne non inclus dans cette liste,
ou dont le gain est supérieur au gain maximal indiqué, sont strictement interdits pour
l'exploitation de l'émetteur.
IC Radiation Exposure Statement:
This e
quipment complies with IC RF radiation exposure limits set forth for an
uncontrolled environment. This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in
conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
