PERFORMANCE
Your transceiver will achieve its maximum operating range when communicating with other transceivers in a flat open area with no trees or buildings
obstructing its signal. Range may be up to two miles under such conditions.
Obstacles such as buildings, trees or mountains will tend to reduce the
transceiver’s effective range.
FCC WARNING
Replacement or substitution of transistors, diodes or other parts of a unique
nature, with parts other than those recommended by the manufacturer, may
cause a violation of the technical regulations of Part 15 of FCC Rules.
SAFETY INFORMATION
Your wireless portable transceiver contains a low power transmitter. When
the headset PTT button is pushed, or the VOX mode is in effect, it sends out
radio frequency (RF) signals. The device is authorized to operate at a duty
factor not to exceed 50%.In August 1996, the Federal Communications
Commissions (FCC) adopted RF exposure guidelines with safety levels for
hand-held wireless devices.
Important: To maintain compliance with the FCC’ s RF exposure guidelines,
use the Audiovox supplied carry clip for belt attachment to ensure
that the antenna is at least 1 inch (2.5 centimeters) from your
body when transmitting. If you choose to hold the unit, maintain
the same antenna distance from your body as indicated above.
Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments could
damage the transmitter and may violate FCC regulations.
