Important Information
Note:
Le Fabricant N'est Pas Responsable Des Toutes Interférences Radio Ou Télévision Causées Par Des Modifications Non
Autorisées Apportées À Cet Appareil. De Telles Modifications Peuvent Empêcher L’utilisateur D’utiliser L'appareil.
The Manufacturer Is Not Responsible For Any Radio Or Tv Interference Caused By Unauthorized Modifications Or
Change To This Equipment. Such Modifications Or Change Could Void The User’s Authority To Operate The Equipment.
The Users Manual Or Instruction Manual For An Intentional Or Unintentional Radiator Shall Caution The User That
Changes Or Modifications Not Expressly Approved By The Party Responsible For Compliance Could Void The User's
Authority To Operate The Equipment. In Cases Where The Manual Is Provided Only In A Form Other Than Paper, Such As
On A Computer Disk Or Over The Internet, The Information Required By This Section May Be Included In The Manual In
That Alternative Form, Provided The User Can Reasonably Be Expected To Have The Capability To Access Information In
That Form.
This equipment complies with FCC RF exposure guidelines. This equipment should be installed and operated with 0 cm seperation from radiator
and body for body-back mode. This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter
Hold the radio in a vertical position in front of face with the microphone at least one inch(2.5cm)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.

Important Information
RF Energy Exposure Information
RF Energy Exposure Awareness And Control
Information For Fcc Occupational Use Requirements
Ibefore using the two-way portable radio, review the following important RF energy awareness and control information and operational
instructions. Comply with this information and instructions in order to ensure compliance with RF exposure guidelines.e the capability to
access information in that form.
This radio is intended for use in occupational/controlled conditions, where users have full knowledge of their exposure
!
WARNING
and can exercise control over their exposure to remain below RF exposure limits. This radio is NOT authorized for
general population, consumer, or any other use.
!
CAUTION
This two-way radio uses electromagnetic energy in the radio frequency (RF) spectrum to provide communications between two or more
users over a distance. It uses RF energy or radio waves to send and receive calls. RF energy is one form of electromagnetic energy. Other
forms include, but are not limited to, electric power, sunlight, and x-rays. RF energy, however, should not be confused with these other
forms of electromagnetic energy, which, when used improperly, can cause biological damage. Very high levels of x-rays, for example, can
damage tissues and genetic material.
Experts in science, engineering, medicine, health, and industry work with organizations to develop standards for exposure to RF energy.
These standards provide recommended levels of RF exposure for both workers and the general public. These recommended RF exposure
levels include substantial margins of protection. All two-way radios marketed in North America are designed, manufactured, and tested to
ensure they meet government-established RF exposure levels. In addition, manufacturers also recommend specific operating instructions
to users of two-way radios. These instructions are important because they inform users about RF energy exposure and provide simple
procedures on how to control it. Refer to the following websites for more information on what RF energy exposure is and how to control
exposure to assure compliance with established RF exposure limits:
http://www.fcc.gov/oet/rfsafety/rf-faqs.html

Changes or modifications not expressly approved by Shenzhen Excera Technology Co., Ltd.could void the user's
authority to operate the equipment.
Important Information
Federal Communications Commission Regulations
Before it was marketed in the United States, the Digital portable radio was tested to ensure compliance with FCC RF energy
exposure limits for two-way portable radios. When two-way radios are used as a consequence of employment, the FCC requires
users to be fully aware of and able to control their exposure to meet occupational requirements. Exposure awareness can be
facilitated by the use of a
label directing users to specific user awareness information. The radio has an RF exposure product label.
Also, the Product Safety Manual and this Operator’s Manual include information and operating instructions required to control RF
exposure and to satisfy compliance requirements.
Operation Safety Recommendations
Occupational Safety Guidelines And Safety Training Information
To ensure bodily exposure to RF electromagnetic energy is within the FCC allowable limits for occupational use. Always adhere to
the following basic guidelines:
• The push-to-talk button should only be depressed when intending to send a voice message.
• The radio should only be used for necessary work-related communications.
• The radio should only be used by authorized and trained personnel. It should never be operated by children.
• Do not attempt any unauthorized modification to the radio. Changes or modifications to the radio may cause harmful
interference and/or cause it to exceed FCC RF exposure limits. Only qualified personnel should service the radio.
• Always use only authorized accessories (antennas, control heads, speakers/mics, etc.). Use of unauthorized accessories can
cause the FCC RF exposure compliance requirements to be exceeded.
The information listed above provides the user with information needed to make him or her aware of a RF
exposure, and what to do to assure that this radio operates within the FCC exposure limits of this radio.
