Safety and General Information
Important Information on Safe and Efficient Operation
Read This Information Before Using Your Radio
The information provided in this document supersedes the general safety
information contained in user guides published prior to July 2000. For information
regarding radio use in a hazardous atmosphere please refer to the Factory Mutual
(FM) Approval Manual Supplement or Instruction Card, which is included with radio
models that offer this capability.
RF Operational Characteristics
Your radio 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
450 MHz to 470 MHz.
Exposure to Radio Frequency Energy
Your Motorola radio is designed to comply with the following 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) / Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) C95. 1-1992
• Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) C95.1-1999 Edition
Safety and General Information
5
• National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP) of the
United States, Report 86, 1986
• International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) 1998
• National Radiological Protection Board of the United Kingdom 1995
• Ministry of Health (Canada) Safety Code 6. Limits of Human Exposure to Radio
Frequency Electromagnetic Fields in the Frequency Range from 3 kHz to 300
GHz, 1999
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:
Portable Radio Operation and EME Exposure
Antenna Care
Use only the supplied or an approved replacement antenna. Unauthorized
antennas, modifications, or attachments could damage the radio and may violate
FCC regulations.
DO NOT hold the antenna when the radio is “IN USE”. Holding the antenna
affects the effective range.
Safety and General Information
6
Two-Way Radio Operation
When using your radio as a traditional two-way radio, hold the radio in
a vertical position with the microphone two to three inches (5.0 to
7.5 cm) away from the lips.
Body-Worn Operation
To maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines, if you wear a radio on
your body when transmitting, always place the radio in a Motorola supplied or
approved clip, holder, holster, case, or body harness. Use of non-Motorolaapproved accessories may exceed FCC RF exposure guidelines. If you do not use
a body-worn accessory, ensure the antenna is at least one inch (2.5 cm) from
your body when transmitting.
Approved Accessories
For a list of approved Motorola accessories refer to the Two-Way Radio section of
www.motorola.com/store.
Electromagnetic Interference/Compatibility
Note: Nearly every electronic device is susceptible to electromagnetic interference
(EMI) if inadequately shielded, designed or otherwise configured for
electromagnetic compatibility.
Safety and General Information
7
Facilities
To avoid electromagnetic interference and/or compatibility conflicts, 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.
Aircraft
When instructed to do so, turn off your radio when on board an aircraft. Any use of a
radio must be in accordance with applicable regulations per airline crew instructions.
Medical Devices
Pacemakers
The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that a minimum
separation of 6 inches (15 centimeters) be maintained between a handheld wireless
radio and a pacemaker. These recommendations are consistent with the
independent research by, and recommendations of, Wireless Technology Research.
Persons with pacemakers should:
• ALWAYS keep the radio more than six inches (15 centimeters) from their pace-
Safety and General Information
maker when the radio is turned ON.
• not carry the radio in the breast pocket.
• use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for interference.
• turn the radio OFF immediately if you have any reason to suspect that interfer-
ence is taking place.
8
Hearing Aids
Some wireless radios 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 Devices
If you use any other personal medical device, 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.
Safety and General Use While Driving
Check the laws and regulations on the use of radios in the area where you drive.
Always obey them.
When using your radio 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.
Safety and General Information

Operational Warnings
For 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 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
Turn off your radio prior to entering any area with a potentially explosive
atmosphere, unless it is a radio type especially qualified for use in such areas as
“Intrinsically Safe” (for example, Factory Mutual, CSA, or UL Approved). Do not
remove, install, or charge batteries in such areas. Sparks in a potentially explosive
atmosphere can cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or 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, dust or metal powders, and any other area where you would
normally be advised to turn off your vehicle engine. Areas with potentially
Safety and General Information
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, or in areas posted: “Turn off twoway radio”. Obey all signs and instructions.
explosive atmospheres are often but not always posted.
10
Operational Cautions
Antennas
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.
Batteries
All batteries can cause property damage and/or bodily injury such as burns if a
conductive material such as jewelry, 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.

Hands-Free Use (VOX)
Hands-Free Use With Accessories
VOX allows you to transmit “hands-free” by talking while using VOX accessories
connected to the radio.
To set VOX, plug in your accessory before you turn on your radio. When you turn on
your radio, flashing g displays. Your radio will now detect your voice and transmit
every time you talk. When you transmit using a VOX headset, you will hear yourself
talking through the accessory speaker. This lets you know VOX is working.
Press M to turn off VOX and return to the regular way of transmitting. The g will
disappear. To reset VOX use, turn your radio off and then back on with your
accessory plugged in.

QuieT6000™ (Continued)
If you have a T6200 radio with QuieT6000 on and want to talk to others in your
group who also have QuieT6000 on, you must first transmit a call tone before talking
to them. When the call tone is transmitted, ^ will display on the other T6200 or
T6300 series radios with the same channel, interference eliminator code, and
QuieT6000 on, letting them know that you want to talk to them. Those radios can
then receive and transmit until 30 seconds of inactivity occurs, which resets the
QuieT6000 function. While QuieT6000 is on, F is displayed to indicate that the
function is on. However, during the 30 seconds of inactivity, F will flash.
Unique Situations
QuieT6000 can also keep your radio quiet when you are in a situation where noise
can be disruptive, such as when you are in a movie theater or out hunting. Set
QuieT6000 to either 1 or 2 and set your radio’s alert to 1 (VibraCall only). Now

when you receive a call from another T6200 or T6300 series radio, your radio will
vibrate while the ^ displays on the screen. The ^ will remain on the screen until you
press any button. Only then can you receive and transmit to those radios until 30
seconds of inactivity occurs and the QuieT6000 function resets.

Weather (T6220 Only)
You can’t change the weather, but you can be prepared for it
whenever you take your Motorola Talkabout T6220 radio with
you. That’s because it tunes into National Oceanic and
Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Weather Radio broadcasts.
You can listen to a weather channel or you can even set your
radio to alert you to emergency weather broadcasts.
And because NOAA Weather Radio now broadcasts warning
information for all types of hazards, routine broadcasts are
interrupted during emergencies for natural and technological warnings, watches,
and other critical information.
NOAA has transmitters located throughout the United States and Canada that
broadcast National Weather Service warnings, watches, forecasts, and other hazard
information 24 hours a day.
Whenever you listen to a weather channel, you cannot use your radio for two-way
communications. However, a weather alert will notify you while the radio is in twoway mode (if you have enabled weather alert) and the radio is on but not
transmitting or receiving.
Turning On Weather Channel Reception

Press [ or ] to select the strongest channel.
As with two-way radio reception, weather channel reception depends on how close
you are to a transmitter and whether you are indoors or outdoors. Also, because
weather channels are transmitted without codes, they may contain static or noise.
Note: In some isolated areas, it may not be possible to receive weather channel
transmissions.
