Alerts can be audible, visual, or vibrating.
You can also determine how your radio will alert you when you’re receiving: vibrate,

ring, both, or none. Your radio will vibrate and/or ring only the first time you receive a
transmission or call. It will not ring or vibrate again until 30 seconds of inactivity have
elapsed.

Eavesdrop Reducer (T6210 and T6220 Only)

Your radio has the Eavesdrop Reducer feature, a scramble code that makes
your transmissions sound garbled to anyone listening without the same
code. It doesn’t guarantee secrecy, but it adds an extra layer of privacy.
Don’t forget -- all the radios have to be set to the same Eavesdrop Reducer

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,

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.

Renseignements généraux et sécurité

Données importantes pour une utilisation sûre et efficace
Lisez cet avis avant d'utiliser la radio

L’information fournie dans ce document annule et remplace les renseignements
généraux de sécurité contenus dans les guides d’utilisateur publiés avant juillet

2000. Pour les consignes concernant les risques d’utilisation de la radio en
atmosphère dangereuse, veuillez vous reporter au supplément du manuel Factory

Exposition à l’énergie radiofréquence

La radio Motorola est conçue pour respecter les standards nationaux et
internationaux ainsi que les directives suivantes quant à l’exposition des personnes

à l’énergie électromagnétique des fréquences radio :

• 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

1 T6200.book Page 70 Tuesday, March 20, 2001 10:41 AM

Il est essentiel de respecter les procédures suivantes en vue d'assurer le rendement
maximal de la radio et de respecter les limites d'exposition humaine à l'énergie
radiofréquence et électromagnétique mentionnées dans les normes énumérées
précédemment :

Utilisation de la radio portative et exposition à l'énergie
électromagnétique (EME)

Entretien de l’antenne

1 T6200.book Page 71 Tuesday, March 20, 2001 10:41 AM

Utilisation lorsque la radio est sur vous

En vue de respecter les directives FCC relatives à l'exposition RF, utilisez toujours

une pince, un support, un étui, une housse ou un harnais approuvé ou fourni
par Motorola lorsque vous transmettez un message avec la radio sur votre corps.

L'utilisation d'accessoires non approuvés par Motorola entraîne le risque de
dépasser les limites permises par les directives FCC en matière d'exposition RF. Si

vous n'utilisez pas un accessoire pour porter la radio sur votre corps,
assurez-vous de maintenir une distance minimale de 2,5 cm (1 po) entre

1 T6200.book Page 72 Tuesday, March 20, 2001 10:41 AM

Avion

Il se peut qu’à bord d'un avion on vous demande d'éteindre votre radio ; cette
consigne doit être respectée. L'utilisation d'une radio est régie par la réglementation
que mentionne l'équipage de bord.

La Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommande une distance minimale

1 T6200.book Page 73 Tuesday, March 20, 2001 10:41 AM

Autres appareils médicaux

Pour tout autre appareil médical, il est recommandé de consulter le fabricant afin de
déterminer si l'appareil en question est suffisamment protégé contre l'énergie RF. Il
est possible que votre médecin soit en mesure de vous aider à obtenir ces
renseignements.

Sécurité et directives relatives à l'utilisation de la radio pendant la conduite
automobile

1 T6200.book Page 74 Tuesday, March 20, 2001 10:41 AM

Milieux potentiellement explosifs

À moins que votre radio soit qualifiée d'appareil à sécurité intrinsèque pour
utilisation dans un milieu potentiellement explosif (par ex. Factory Mutual, CSA ou
UL), éteignez la radio avant d'entrer dans une zone qui constitue un milieu
potentiellement explosif. Lorsque vous vous trouvez dans une telle zone, il ne faut
pas enlever, installer ou charger les piles. Les étincelles dans un milieu
potentiellement explosif risquent de causer une explosion ou un incendie et d’ainsi

1 T6200.book Page 75 Tuesday, March 20, 2001 10:41 AM

Mises en garde

Antennes

N'utilisez jamais une radio avec une antenne endommagée. Il y a risque de brûlure
superficielle si l'antenne endommagée entre en contact avec la peau.

Batteries

Toute batterie peut causer des dommages matériels ainsi que des blessures
corporelles (par ex. brûlure) lorsqu'un conducteur touche aux bornes exposées

1 T6200.book Page 76 Tuesday, March 20, 2001 10:41 AM

Mise en garde

Utilisez uniquement les batteries rechargeables énumérées ci-après pour réduire
tout risque de blessure. Les autres types de batterie risquent d'éclater et de causer
des blessures corporelles et des dommages.

Gardez ces instructions à portée de la main:

1. Gardez le chargeur à l'abri de la pluie et de la neige.

2. N'utilisez pas le chargeur suite à un choc ou s'il a été échappé ou endommagé
de quelque façon que ce soit.

3. Ne démontez pas le chargeur suite à un choc ou s'il a été échappé ou
endommagé de quelque façon que ce soit.

4. Ne modifiez jamais le cordon d'alimentation ou la fiche c.a. livrés avec le

1 T6200.book Page 78 Tuesday, March 20, 2001 10:41 AM

9. À moins que ce soit absolument nécessaire, évitez d'utiliser une rallonge
électrique. L'utilisation d'une rallonge non conforme entraîne le risque

d'incendie et de choc électrique. S'il est absolument nécessaire d'utiliser une
rallonge électrique, assurez-vous que :

-la rallonge dispose du même nombre de broches, et que celles-ci ont la même

forme et dimension que les broches du chargeur;

-la rallonge est correctement câblée et en bon état;

-les câbles d'une longueur maximale de 30,5 m (100 pi) sont de calibre

Installation des piles

La radio nécessite 3 piles AA ou 1 batterie au nickel-hydrures métalliques

(NiMH) rechargeable.
Certaines radios sont livrées avec une batterie au NiMH et un couvercle

d'adaptateur de recharge, un berceau de recharge et un chargeur. Si vous n'avez
pas ces articles, vous pouvez vous les procurer en obtenant la trousse de mise à
jour de batterie au NiMH (56319). Pour connaître l'adresse d'un détaillant dans votre

Indicateur d'état de la batterie

L'indicateur d'état de la batterie, situé dans le coin supérieur gauche
de l'écran, signale la charge restante. Les états signalés sont : d

Berceau de recharge

Le berceau de recharge facilite la recharge brancher-charger. Il peut être placé ou
monté sur toute surface plane (mur ou établi) : la radio est alors convertie en
intercom fixe tout en demeurant chargée et prête pour l'aventure en tout temps.

Montage du berceau de recharge :

1 T6200.book Page 87 Tuesday, March 20, 2001 10:41 AM

• Repérez le crochet du chargeur (situé sur la
même extrémité que le voyant lumineux) au­dessus de la fente gauche.

• Enclenchez le crochet (situé sur la même
extrémité que le cordon) dans la fente droite ;
le chargeur sera alors fixé sur les contacts du
berceau de recharge.

Parler et écouter

Avant de parler

Converser en utilisant une radio bidirectionnelle nécessite que les 2 locuteurs aient
recours aux mêmes canaux, code de réduction du bruit et code de réduction
d'écoute clandestine (T6210 et T6220 uniquement).

Le canal est l'onde de radiofréquence qu’utilise la radio lors de la transmission. Le
code de réduction du bruit sert à l'élimination de la statique, du bruit et des
