IMPROVED AUDIO FEATURES
Your radio may be programmed by your dealer to
utilise ONE of the following audio enhancement
features.
Low Level Expansion (LLE)
LLE improves voice quality by reducing unwanted
background noise when receiving a message. It is
compatible with most major types of audio
processing systems available today.
Companding
Companding improves voice quality by compressing
your voice at transmission, and expanding it when
receiving. Companding also reduces extraneous
noise. However, to enjoy this beneÞt,
transmitting and receiving radios must have this
feature activated.

BATTERY INFORMATION
Battery Care and Tips
This product is powered by a nickel-cadmium (NiCd)
or a nickel-metal-hydride (NiMH) rechargeable
battery.
The following battery tips will help you obtain the
highest performance and longest cycle life from your
Motorola rechargeable battery.
¥ Charge your new battery overnight (
hours
) before using it to obtain maximum
battery capacity and performance.
¥ Charging in non-Motorola equipment may lead
to battery damage and void the battery warranty.
¥ When charging a battery that is attached to the
radio, turn the radio off to ensure a full charge.
¥ The battery should be at about 25¡C (room
temperature) whenever possible. Charging a
cold battery (below 10¡C) may result in leakage
of electrolyte and ultimately, in failure of the
battery.
14-16
¥ Charging a hot battery (above 35¡C) results in
reduced discharge capacity, affecting the
performance of the radio. Motorola rapid-rate
battery chargers contain a temperature-sensing
circuit to ensure that the battery is charged
within these temperature limits.
¥ New batteries can be stored up to two years
without signiÞcant cycle loss. Store new/unused
batteries in a cool dry area.
¥ Batteries which have been in storage should be
charged overnight.
¥ Do not return fully charged batteries to the
charger for an Òextra boostÓ. This action will
signiÞcantly
¥ Do not leave your radio and battery in the
charger when not charging. Continuous charging
will shorten battery life. (Do not use your charger
as a radio stand.)
¥ For optimum battery life and operation use only
Motorola brand chargers. They were designed to
operate as an integrated energy system.

Recycling or Disposal of
Batteries
NiCd
At the end of its useful life, the NiCd battery
can be recycled. However, recycling facilities may
not be available in all areas.
Motorola endorses and encourages the recycling of
all re-chargeable batteries. Contact your local
Motorola dealer for further information.
Charging your Battery
When the battery level is very low, a blinking red
LED indicator lights up during transmit mode, and
an alert tone sounds. You will need to recharge the
battery before you can continue to use your radio.
Place the radio with the battery attached or the
battery alone in the charger. The chargerÕs LED
indicator will indicate the charging progress.

*
Remove the battery from charger and use a pencil eraser to
clean the four metal contacts on the bottom of the battery.
Place the battery back into the charger. If the LED indicator
continues to ßash red, replace the battery.
A standard battery may require one hour to charge to 90%
capacity.

National and International Standards and
Guidelines
Your Motorola Two-Way Radio, which generates and
radiates radio frequency (RF) electromagnetic energy
(EME) is designed to comply with the following National
and International Standards and Guidelines regarding
exposure of human beings to radio frequency
electromagnetic energy:
¥ Federal Communications Commission Report and
Order No. FCC 96-326 (August 1996)
¥ American National Standards Institute
(C95.1 - 1992)
¥ National Council on Radiation Protection and
Measurements (NCRP - 1986)
¥ International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radi-
ation Protection (ICNRP - 1986)

Electromagnetic Interference/Compatibility
Note: Nearly every electronic device is susceptible
To avoid electromagnetic interference and/or
compatibility conßicts, turn off your radio in any
facility where posted notices instruct you to do so.
Hospitals or health care facilities may be using
equipment that is sensitive to external RF energy.
When instructed to do so, turn off your radio when
on board an aircraft. Any use of a radio must be in
accordance with airline regulations or crew
instructions.
to electromagnetic interference (EMI) if
inadequately shielded, designed or otherwise conÞgured for electromagnetic compatibility.
Operational Warnings
!
!
Vehicles With an Air Bag
Do not place a portable radio in the area over an air
bag or in the air bag deployment area. Air bags
inßate with great force. If a portable radio is placed
in the air bag deployment area and the air bag
inßates, the radio may be propelled with great force
and cause serious injury to occupants of the vehicle.
W A R N I N G
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
qualiÞed for use in such areas (for example, Factory
Mutual). Sparks in a potentially explosive
atmosphere can cause an explosion or Þre resulting
in bodily injury or even death.
Batteries
Do not replace or recharge batteries in a potentially
explosive atmosphere. Contact sparking may occur
while installing or removing batteries and cause an
explosion.
English
28
Blasting Caps and Areas
Batteries
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: ÒTurn off two-way radio.Ó Obey all
signs and instructions.
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, dust or metal
powders; and any 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.
Operational Cautions
!
Damaged Antennas
Do not use any portable two-way radio that has a
damaged antenna. If a damaged antenna comes
into contact with your skin, a minor burn can result.
C a u t i o n
All batteries can cause property damage and/or
bodily injury such as burns if a conductive material
such as jewellery, keys, 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.
General Radio Care
¥ The use of chemicals such as
detergents, alcohol, aerosol
sprays, and/or petroleum
products may be harmful to and damage the
radio housing.
¥ Avoid physical abuse of the radio such as
carrying it by the antenna.
¥ The accessory connector (if Þtted) has a
protective cap which should be left in place when
the connector is not in use.
¥ Clean the radio exterior using a cloth moistened
with clean water and a mild dishwashing liquid.
¥ The use of non-approved radio accessories may
damage the radio and invalidate warranty.
