Warning: Changes or modifications to this unit not expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
Note: 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 a residential installation. This
equipment generates, uses and can radiate 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 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:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the
receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Safety Information:
Your wireless hand-held portable transceiver contains a low power transmitter. When the
Push-to-Talk (PTT) button is pushed it sends out radio frequency (RF) signals. 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, hold the
transmitter and ANTENNA at least 2 inches (5 centimeters) from your face and speak in
a normal voice, with the ANTENNA pointed up and away from the face. Use only the
supplied ANTENNA. Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments could
damage the transmitter and may violate FCC regulations.
