Instructions for Occupational Use
Note: This radio is intended for use in
occupational/controlled conditions where users
have full knowledge of their exposure and can
exercise control over their exposure to meet the
occupational limits in FCC/ICNIRP and
International standards. This radio device is NOT
authorized for general population consumer use
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 radio frequency (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, 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 safe exposure to RF energy. These
standards provide recommended levels of RF
exposure for both workers and the general public.
Safety and General Information

These recommended RF exposure levels include
substantial margins of protection.
All Motorola two-way radios 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.
Please refer to the following websites for more
information on what RF energy exposure is and
how to control your exposure to assure compliance

Compliance with RF Exposure
Standards
Your Motorola two-way radio is designed and
tested to comply with a number of national and
International standards and guidelines (listed
below) for human exposure to radio frequency
electromagnetic energy. This radio complies with
the IEEE (FCC) and ICNIRP exposure limits for
occupational/controlled RF exposure
environments at operating duty factors of up to
50% talk-50% listen and is authorized by the
IEEE/ICNIRP for occupational use only.
In terms of measuring RF energy for compliance
with these exposure guidelines, your radio
generates measurable RF energy only while it
is transmitting (during talking), not when it is
receiving (listening) or in standby mode.
Note: The approved batteries, supplied with this
radio, are rated for a 5-5-90 duty cycle (5% talk–
5% listen–90% standby), even though this radio
complies with IEEE/ICNIRP occupational exposure
limits at usage factors of up to 50% talk.
Your Motorola two-way radio complies
with the following RF energy exposure
standards and guidelines:
• United States Federal Communications
Commission, Code of Federal Regulations; 47
CFR part 2 sub-part J
• American National Standards Institute (ANSI) /
Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers
(IEEE) C95. 1-1992
