Safety Instructions
Please observe the following safety instructions to prevent re, accidents,
personal injury, or equipment damage.
• Do not modify the radio in any way.
• Do not expose the radio to direct sunlight for extended periods of time, locate
near heaters or other heat sources.
• Do not store or use unprotected radio for prolonged periods in areas of high
dust or excessive moisture.
• Users may experience signal interference if the unit is used near devices such
as televisions or electric generators.
• Do not attempt to congure or program the radio while driving.
• If the radio emits smoke or a strange smell, immediately turn o the power, and
send it to the closets repair station.
• Use of the radio while driving may be against local trac laws. Pleas verify and
observe regulations in your area.
• The radio contains high power components that are not user serviceable or
should be tampered with.
• It is not uncommon for the body of the radio to be slightly warm during
operation. This is normal and the radio may continue to be used.
• Do not operate the radio without a proper antenna attached, as this may
damage the radio and may also cause you to exceed RF exposure limits. A
proper antenna is the antenna supplied with this radio by the manufacturer or
an antenna specically authorized by the manufacturer for use with this radio,
and the antenna gain shall not exceed 3.9 dBi by the manufacturer declared.
• Do not transmit for more than 50% of total radio use time, more than 50% of
the time can cause RF exposure compliance requirements to be exceeded.
Hazards and Hazardous Environments
• When in areas of explosive atmospheres (gases, dust, fumes, etc.), the radio
shall be turned o. This includes when taking on fuel or while parked at a
fueling facility.
Hazards and Hazardous Environments (continued)
• The radio shall not be operated in or around locations that are using blasting
devices or detonators. The radio shall be turned o in the area where blasting
is in progress and in areas with signage stating that blasting is occurring. If
transporting such materials, they shall be secured in an approved container
to prevent inadvertent detonation from the radio.
• During transmissions, your radio generates RF energy that can possibly
cause interference with other devices or systems. To avoid such interference,
turn o the radio in areas where signs are posted to do so. Do not operate
the transmitter in areas that are sensitive to electromagnetic radiation such
as hospitals, aircraft, and blasting sites.
• Physical exposure to radio frequency transmissions requires that the user or
bystander cannot touch the radio while it is transmitting. A distance of at least
three feet (90 cm) shall be maintained during transmission. The separation
distance between user and the antenna will ensure that there is sucient
distance from a properly installed externally-mounted antenna to satisfy the
RF exposure requirements.
If there are any problems with the radio, please contact AWC or your local
distributor.
Product Safety and RF Exposure
This equipment 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 the
general population, consumer or similar use cases.
BEFORE USING THIS RADIO DEVICE, READ ALL RELATIVE MATERIALS
IN THIS MANUAL FOR IMPORTANT OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR
SAFE USAGE, 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 radio devices. The FCC requires manufacturers to demonstrate
compliance with RF exposure limits before radio devices may be marketed in
the U.S. When two-way radios and repeaters 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 using labels, or by education and training
through appropriate means such as information and instructions in user
manuals or safety booklets. Your Advanced Wireless Communications’ two-way
radio or repeater has an RF exposure information label on the device. The
training material below includes useful information about RF exposure and
helpful instructions.
Your Advanced Wireless Communications two-way radio devices are designed
and tested to comply with several national and international standards and
guidelines regarding human exposure to RF electromagnetic energy. In terms of
measuring RF energy for compliance with FCC exposure guidelines, your radio
device radiates measurable RF energy only while transmitting, not when it is
receiving, or in stand-by mode.
WARNING
As the qualied end-user of this radio device you must control the exposure
conditions in the area to ensure the minimum separation distance is maintained
between the antenna and nearby persons for satisfying RF Exposure
compliance. The operation of this transmitter must satisfy the requirements
of Occupational/Controlled Use Only, for work-related use, transmit only
when person(s) are at least the minimum distance from the properly installed,
externally mounted antenna. “Occupational/Controlled Use Only” means
it must be used only during the course of employment by individuals aware
of the hazards, and the ways to minimize such hazards; NOT intended for
use in an General population/uncontrolled environment. Transmit only when
people outside the vehicle or away from the repeater antenna are at least the
recommended minimum lateral distance away from the antenna/vehicle. Do
Not operate the radio without a proper antenna attached, as this may damage
the radio and may also cause you to exceed RF exposure limits. A proper
antenna is the antenna supplied with this radio by the manufacturer or an
antenna specically authorized by the manufacturer for use with this radio, and
the antenna gain shall not exceed 3.9 dBi by the manufacturer declared. Do
Not transmit for more than 50% of total radio use time, more than 50% of the
time can cause RF exposure compliance requirements to be exceeded.
