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 efficient operation of your radio, observe these guidelines.
Your radio contains a transmitter and a receiver. When it is ON, it receives, and also transmits, radio frequency (RF) energy. The radio operates in the frequency range of 806MHz to 866MHz, 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 power level may typically vary over a range from 0.01 of a watt to 0.6 of a watt.

Exposure to Radio Frequency Energy

In August 1996 the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) of the United States with its action in Report and Order FCC 96­326 adopted an updated safety standard for human exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic energy emitted by FCC regu­lated transmitters. In addition, the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNRP) has established standards containing RF exposure guidelines. Motorola iDEN products comply with these standards.
Efficient Radio Operation
The following practices will enable your radio to operate at the lowest power level, consistent with satisfactory call quality.
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.
When using the radio as a traditional two-way radio while making group 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 one to two inches away from the lips.

Safety and General
31
Safety and General
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.

Antenna Considerations

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 ICNRP or FCC regula­tions.
Interference to Medical and Personal Electronic Devices
Most electronic equipment is shielded from RF energy. How­ever, RF energy from the radio transmitter may affect inade­quately shielded electronic equipment.
Consult the manufacturer(s) of your medical and personal elec­tronic device(s) (for example. - a pacemaker or a hearing aid) to determine if they are adequately shielded from external RF energy. Your physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this information.
Turn your radio off in health care facilities when any regulations posted in the area instruct you to do so. Hospitals and health care facilities may be using equipment that is sensitive to external RF energy.

Interference to Other Electronic Devices

RF energy may affect improperly 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.

Use While Driving

nals. The material may complete an electrical circuit (short circuit) and become quite hot. Exercise care in handling any charged battery, particularly when placing it inside your pocket, purse or other container. To protect against a short circuit when the battery is detached from the phone, keep the battery in the insulated pro­tective case provided with the battery.
When using the phone while driving, please:
• give full attention to driving and to the road;
• use hands free operation, if available; and
• pull off the road and park before making or answering a call if driving conditions so require.

Children

!
C a u t i o n
i370XL/i470
Do not allow children to play with your radio. It is not a toy. Children could hurt themselves or others (by poking themselves or others in the eye with the antenna, for example). Children also could damage the radio, or make calls that increase your service bills.

Blasting Areas and Explosives
DO NOT operate your radio near electric blast­ing caps, or in a blasting area, to avoid the possi-

bility of triggering an explosion. Turn your radio OFF when in a “blasting area” or in areas where
such requirements are posted.
W A R N I N G

Potentially Explosive Atmospheres

Turn your radio OFF and do not replace the battery when in any area with a potentially
!

explosive atmosphere. It is rare, but your radio or its accessories could generate sparks which might trigger an explosion.
W A R N I N G
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often, but not always, clearly marked. They include areas such as below deck on boats, fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities, and areas where the air contains chemicals or parti­cles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders.
Safety and General
34
Do not transport or store flammable gas, liquid, or explosives in the compartment of your vehi­cle which contains your radio or accessories.
Vehicles powered by liquefied petroleum gas (such as propane or butane) must comply with the National Fire Protection Standard (NFPA-
58). For a copy of this standard, contact the National Fire Protection Association. One Bat­terymarch Park, Quincy, MA 02269, Attn: Publi­cations Sales Division.

ment, in the area over the air bag or in the air
bag deployment area. If the communication
equipment is improperly installed and the air
bag inflates, this could cause serious injury.
Installation of vehicle communication equip-
ment should be performed by a professional
installer/technician qualified in the require-
ments for such installations. An air bag’s size,
shape, and deployment area can vary by vehicle
make, model, and front compartment configura-
tion (for example, bench seat vs. bucket seats).
Contact the vehicle manufacturer’s corporate
headquarters, if necessary, for specific air bag
information for the vehicle make, model, and
front compartment configuration involved in
your communication equipment installation.
Clean the external surfaces with a damp cloth, using a mild solution of dishwashing detergent and water. Some household cleaners may contain chemicals which could seriously damage the unit. Avoid the use of any petroleum-based solvent cleaners. Also, avoid applying liquids directly on the portable unit.
