Compliance with RF Exposure Standards
National and international regulations require manufacturers to comply with the RF
energy exposure limits for portable two-way radios before they can be marketed.
Your Motorola Solutions two-way radio is designed, manufactured, and tested to
comply with all applicable national and international regulations for human exposure
to radio frequency electromagnetic energy. When two-way radios are used as a
consequence of employment, applicable regulations may require users to be fully
aware of and able to control their exposure to meet occupational requirements.
RF Energy Exposure Awareness and Control Information and Operational Instructions for Occupational Use
Note: This radio is intended for use in occupational/controlled conditions
where users are aware of their exposure and can exercise control over
their exposure to meet the requirements in national and international
regulations. This radio device is not authorized for general population,
consumer use.

RF Exposure Compliance and Control Guidelines
To control your exposure, and ensure compliance with the relevant RF exposure
limits, always adhere to the following guidelines:
1
English
• Do not remove any of the RF Exposure Labels if present from this device or its
related accessories.
• Attach these instructions to the device when you transfer it to other users.
• Do not use this device if the operational requirements described herein are not
met.
Operating Instructions
• Transmit no more than 50% of the time. To transmit (talk), press the Push-ToTalk (PTT) button. To receive calls, release the PTT button. Transmitting more
than 50% of the time may cause RF exposure compliance requirements to be
exceeded.
• Hold the radio in a vertical position in front of the face with the microphone (and
other parts of the radio including the antenna) at least 1 in. (2.5 cm) away from
the nose or lips. Antenna should be kept away from the eye.
• When worn on the body, always place the radio in a Motorola Solutionsapproved clip, holder, holster, case, or body harness for this product.
• DO NOT hold the antenna when the radio is transmitting.
• DO NOT use any portable radio that has a damaged antenna. If a damaged
antenna comes into contact with your skin, a minor burn can result.
• To ensure continued compliance with applicable RF exposure limits, use only
Motorola Solutions approved, supplied or replacement antennas, batteries, and
accessories.
• For a list of Motorola Solutions approved accessories please refer to your user
manual or visit www.motorolasolutions.com
Acoustic Safety
Exposure to loud noises from any source for extended periods of time may
temporarily or permanently affect your hearing. The louder the volume of the radio,
the sooner your hearing will be affected. Hearing damage from loud noise is
sometimes undetectable at first, and can have a cumulative effect.
To protect your hearing, follow these precautions:
• Use the lowest volume necessary to do your job.
• Turn up the volume only if you are in noisy surroundings.
• Turn down the volume before putting on a headset or headphones.
• Limit the amount of time you use a headset or headphones at high volume.
• When using the radio without a headset or headphones, do not place the
speaker of the radio directly against your ear.

Medical Devices
If you use a personal medical device, such as a pacemaker or hearing aid, consult
the manufacturer of your device to determine if it is adequately shielded from RF
energy. Your physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this information.
Operational Warnings
The following explains the operational warnings:
For Vehicle With Air Bags
Warning:
• Refer to vehicle manufacturer's manual prior to installation of electronic
equipment to avoid interference with air bag wiring.
• DO NOT place a portable radio in the area over an air bag or in the air
bag deployment area. Air bags inflate with great force. If a portable
radio is placed in the air bag deployment area and the air bag inflates,
the radio may be propelled with great force and cause serious injury to
occupants of the vehicle.
Potentially Explosive Atmospheres
Warning:
• Use of a radio that is not intrinsically safe in a potentially explosive
atmosphere could result in a serious injury or death. You should only
use a certified Intrinsically Safe radio in potentially explosive
atmospheres.
• Explosive atmospheres refer to hazard classified locations that may
contain hazardous gas, vapors, dusts, such as fueling areas below
decks on boats, fuel or chemical transferor storage facilities, and areas
where the air contains chemicals or particles such as grain, dust or
metal powders. Areas with potentially explosive atmospheres are often,
but not always, posted.
• Turn off your radio prior to entering any area with a potentially explosive
atmosphere unless it is a radio type specifically certified for use in
hazardous location areas.
• DO NOT remove, install, or charge batteries in such areas, or remove
or install antennas. Sparks in a potentially explosive atmosphere can
cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death.

Blasting Caps and Blasting Areas
Warning: To avoid possible interference with blasting operations, turn off
your radio when you are near electrical blasting caps, in a blasting area, or
in areas posted: “Turn off two-way radio.” Obey all signs and instructions.
Batteries
• Charge your battery using the approved Motorola Solutions charger.
• Use the battery in accordance with its water and/or dust Ingress Protection (IP)
rating.
• Do not discard your battery into a fire.
• Do not replace the battery in any area labeled "Hazardous Atmosphere".
• Do not disassemble, crush, puncture, shred, or otherwise attempt to change the
form of your battery.
• Do not dry a wet or damp battery with an appliance or heat source, such as a
hair dryer or microwave oven.
• Do not allow conductive material such as jewelry, keys, or beaded chains to
touch exposed battery terminals.
Repair
Warning:
Repairs to a Motorola Solutions intrinsically safe radio product certified by,
for example, FM, UL, CSA, CENELEC, should only be done at a location
that has been audited under the certifying body's repair and service
standard.
Contact Motorola Solutions for assistance regarding repairs and service of
Motorola Solutions intrinsically safe equipment.
A repair constitutes something done internally to the unit that would bring it back to
its original condition.
Items not considered as repairs are those in which an action is performed on a unit
which does not require the outer casing of the unit to be opened in a manner that
exposes the internal electrical circuits of the unit.
Do Not Substitute Options or Accessories
The Motorola Solutions communications equipment certified as intrinsically safe by
the approving agency (FM, UL, CSA, CENELEC) is tested as a complete system
which consists of the listed agency Approved portable, Approved battery, and
Approved accessories or options, or both. This Approved portable and battery
combination must be strictly observed. There must be no substitution of items, even
if the substitute has been previously Approved with a different Motorola Solutions
4
English
communications equipment unit. Approved configurations are listed by the
Approving Agency (FM, UL, CSA, CENELEC).
The Intrinsically Safe Approval Label affixed to radio refers to the intrinsically safe
classification of that radio product, and the approved batteries that can be used with
that system.
The manual PN referenced on the Intrinsically Safe Approval Label identifies the
approved Accessories and or options that can be used with that portable radio unit.
Using a non-Motorola Solutions-intrinsically safe battery and/or accessory with the
Motorola Solutions approved radio unit will void the intrinsically safe approval of that
radio unit.
European Union(EU) Waste of Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Directive
The European Union's WEEE directive requires that products sold into EU
countries must have the crossed out trash bin label on the product (or the package
in some cases). As defined by the WEEE directive, this cross-out trash bin label
means that customers and end-users in EU countries should not dispose of
electronic and electrical equipment or accessories in household waste. Customers
or end-users in EU countries should contact their local equipment supplier
representative or service centre for information about the waste collection system in
their country.
