SAFETY AND GENERAL
INFORMATION

IMPORTANT INFORMATION ON SAFE AND

EFFICIENT OPERATION.

READ THIS INFORMATION BEFORE USING YOUR

INTEGRATED MULTI-SERVICE PORTABLE RADIO.

For the Safe and E fficient Opera tion of Yo ur Ra dio,
Observe these Guid elines:

Your radio product contains a transmitter and a receiver. When it is ON,
it receives and transmits radio frequency (RF) energy. The radio
operates in the frequency range of 806 MHz to 870 MHz and employs
digital modulation techniques. When you use your radio, the system
handling your call controls the power level at which your radio
transmits. The output power level typically may vary over a range
from 0.0024 Watts to 0.6 Watts.

Exposure To Radio Frequency Energy

Your Motorola Radio Product is designed to comply with the followin g
national and international standards and guidelines regarding exposure
of human beings to radio frequency electromagnetic energy:

• United States Federal Communications Commission, Code of
Federal Regulations; 47 CFR part 2 sub-part j

• American National Standards Institute (ANSI) IEEE. C95. 1-1992

• National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurem ents
(NCRP). Report 86

• International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection
(ICNIRP) 1998

• National Radiological Protection Board of the United Kingdom, GS
11, 1988

• Verband Deutscher Elektrotechniker (VDE) DIN-0848

• Department of Health and Welfare Canada. Safety Code 6

To assure optimal radio performance and make sure human exposure to
radio frequency electromagnetic energy is within the guidelines set forth
in the above standards, always adhere to the following procedures:

When placing or receiving a phone call, or using the group or private
call functions with the Group/Private Speaker OFF (muted speaker icon
visible in the display), hold the radio as you would a telephone. Speak
directly into the mouthpiece and position the antenna up and over your
shoulder.

Safety and General Information

When using the radio as a traditional two-way
radio while making gr oup or private calls with the
Group/Private Speaker ON (no speaker icon
visible in the display), hold the radio in a vertical
position with the microphone on e to two inches
away from the lips.

For body-worn operation, the antenna should be
kept at least one inch from the body when
transmitting. A carry holder with a belt clip is
provided with the radio for body-worn use.

When using the data feature of the radio, with or without an accessory
cable, position the radio with the antenna of the radio product at least
one inch (2.5 cm) away from the body.

DO NOT hold the antenna when the radio is “IN USE”. Holding the
antenna affects call quality and may cause the radio to operate at a
higher power level than needed.

Interference to Medical and Personal Electronic Devices

Most electronic equipment is shielded from RF energy. However,
certain equipment may not be shielded against the RF s ignals from your
wireless phone.

Pacemakers

The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that a
minimum separation of six inches (6") be maintained b e tween a
handheld wireless phone and a pacemaker to avoid potential
interference with the pacemaker. These recommendations are consistent
with the independent research by and recommendations of Wireless
Technology Research.

Persons with pacemakers should:

• ALWAYS keep the phone more than six inches from their pacemaker
when the phone is turned ON.

• not carry the phone in a breast pocket.

• use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for
interference.

• turn the phone OFF immediately if you have any reason to suspect
that interference is taking place.

Hearing Aids

Some digital wireless phones may interfere with some hearing aids. In
the event of such interference, you may want to consult your hearing aid
manufacturer to discuss alternatives.

Other Medical Devic es

If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer
of your device to determine if it is adequately shielded from external RF
energy. Your physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this
information.
