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.

Turn your phone OFF in health care facilities when any regulations posted in these areas instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities may be using equipment that could be sensitive to external RF energy.
Interference to Other Electronic Devices
RF energy may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic operating and entertainment systems in motor vehicles. Check with the manufacturer or representative to determine if these systems are adequately shielded from external RF energy. Also check with the manufacturer of any equipment that has been added to the vehicle.
Turn your radio off before boarding any aircraft to prevent possible interference to aircraft systems. Regulations of the United States Federal Aviation Administration prohibit use when the plane is in the air and require you have permission from a crew member to use your radio while the plane is on the ground.
Safety and General
Use While Driving
Check the laws and regulations on the use of telephones in the area where you drive. Always obey them.
When using the phone while driving, please:
• Give full attention to driving and to the road
• Use hands-free operation, if available
• Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call if driving conditions so require.

OPERATIONAL WARNINGS
POTENTIALLY EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERES
Turn off your two-way radio when you are in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere, unless it is a radio type especially qualified for use in such areas (for example, Factory Mutual Approved). Sparks in a potent ially explos ive atmosph ere can cause an explosion of fire resulting in bodily injury of even death.
Note: The areas with potentially explosive atmospheres referred to above include fueling areas such as: below decks on boats; fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities; areas where the air contains chemicals or particles such as grain, dus t or metal pow ders; and an y other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle engine. Areas with potentially explosive atmospheres are often, but not always, posted.
Batteries
Do not replace or charge batteries in a potentially explosive atmosphere. Contact sparking may occur while installing or removing batteries and cause an explosion.
BLASTING CAPS AND AREAS
To avoid possible interference with blasting operations, turn off your radio when you are near electrical blasting caps, in a blasting area, o r
in areas posted: “Turn off two-way radio”. Obey all signs and instructions.
FOR VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH AN AIR BAG
Do NOT place objects, including both installed and portable wireless equipment, in the area over the air bag or in the air bag deployment area. An air bag inflates with great force. If in-vehicle wireless equipment is improperly installed and the air bag inflates, serious injury could result.

OPERATIONAL CAUTIONS
Damaged Antennas
Do not use any portable two-way ra dio that has a damaged anten na. If a damaged antenna comes into contact with your skin, a minor burn can result.
Batteries
All batteries can cause property damage and/or bodily injury such as burns if a conductive material such as jewelry , key s, or beaded chains touch exposed terminals. The conductive material may complete an electrical circuit (short circuit) and become quite hot. Exercise care in handling any charged battery, particularly when placing it inside a pocket, purse, or other container with metal objects.
Cleaning Instructions
Clean the external surfaces of the unit with a damp cloth, using a mild solution of dishwashing detergent and water. Some household cleaners may contain chemicals that could seriously damage the unit. Avoid the use of any petroleum-based solvent cleaners. Also, avoid applying liquids directly on the unit.
Antenna Con side ra tio ns
Use only the supplied or an approved antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments could impair call quality, damage the radio, or result in violation of local agency regulations.
