Safety Information
Exposure to Radio Frequency Signals
Your Personal Communicator is a low power radio transmitter and receiver. When it is ON, it
receives and also sends out radio frequency (RF) signals.
International agencies have set standards and recommendations for the protection of public
exposure to RF electromagnetic energy.
• International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) 1996
• Verband Deutscher Elektrotechniker (VDE) DIN-0848
• United States Federal Communications Commission, Radio Frequency Exposure
Guidelines (1996)
• National Radiological Protection Board of the United Kingdom, GS 11, 1988
• American National Standards Institute (ANSI) IEEE. C95. 1-1992
• National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP). Report 86
• Ministry of Health (Canada), Safety Code 6
These standards are based on extensive scientific review. For example, over 120 scientists,
engineers, and physicians from universities, government health agencies, and industry
reviewed the available body of research to develop the updated ANSI standard.
The design of your Personal Communicator complies with these standards when used
normally. These standards are based on extensive scientific review. For example, over 120
scientists, engineers, and physicians from universities, government health agencies, and
industry reviewed the available body of research to develop the updated ANSI standard.
The design of your Personal Communicator complies with these standards when used
normally.
Aerial Care
5
Use only the supplied or an approved replacement aerial. Unauthorized aerials,
Safety Information

modifications, or attachments could damage the Personal Communicator and may violate
local agency regulations.
Operation
Normal Operation - The communicator is designed to be used with a headset for talking and
listening. The communicator can also be placed inside the holster, then the holster can be
clipped onto your belt, pocket, handbag, or other apparel and used with the headset.
Tips on Efficient Operation - Observe the following guidelines to operate your Personal
Communicator most efficiently.
• Extend your aerial fully, if applicable.
• Do not touch the aerial unnecessarily when the Personal Communicator is in use. Contact
with the aerial affects call quality and may cause the Personal Communicator to operate at
a higher power level than otherwise needed.
Batteries
Caution: All batteries can cause property damage, injury, or burns if a conductive
material, such as jewellery, keys or beaded chains, touches exposed terminals. The
material may complete an electrical circuit and become quite hot. To protect against
such unwanted current drain, exercise care in handling any charged battery,
particularly when placing it inside your pocket, handbag, or other container with metal
Safety Information
objects. When the battery is detached from the Personal Communicator, your batteries
are packed with a protective battery cover; please use this cover for storing your
batteries when not in use.
6
Driving
Check the laws and regulations on the use of wireless telephones in the areas where you
drive. Always obey them. Observe the following guidelines when using your Personal
Communicator while driving.
• Give full attention to driving--driving safely is your first responsibility.
• Use hands-free operation, if available.
• Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call if driving conditions so
require.
Electronic Devices
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF signals. However, certain equipment
may not be shielded against the RF signals from your Personal Communicator.
Pacemakers
The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that a minimum separation of
six inches (6") be maintained between 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 Personal Communicator more than six inches from their
pacemaker when the Personal Communicator is turned ON
• should not carry the Personal Communicator in a breast pocket
• should use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimise the potential for interference
• should turn the Personal Communicator OFF immediately if you have any reason to
suspect that interference is taking place
Safety Information

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 Devices
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 Personal Communicator 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.
Vehicles
RF signals may affect improperly installed or inadequately shielded electronic systems in
motor vehicles. Check with the manufacturer or its representative regarding your vehicle. You
should also consult the manufacturer of any equipment that has been added to your vehicle.
Posted Facilities
Turn your Personal Communicator OFF in any facility where posted notices so require.
Safety Information
Aircraft
Switch OFF your Personal Communicator before boarding an aircraft.
Airline regulations prohibit using your Personal Communicator while in the air. Check and
comply with the policy of your airline regarding the use of your Personal Communicator while
the aircraft is on the ground.
8
Blasting Areas
To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn your Personal Communicator OFF when in a
"blasting area” or in areas posted: “Turn off two-way radio.” Obey all signs and instructions.
Potentially Explosive Atmospheres
Turn your Personal Communicator OFF, do not remove your battery when you are in any area
with a potentially explosive atmosphere, and obey all signs and instructions. Sparks from your
battery in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death.
Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often but not always clearly marked. They
include fuelling areas such as petrol stations; below deck on boats; fuel or chemical transfer
or storage facilities; areas where fuel odours are present (for example, if a gas/propane leak
occurs in a car or home); areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain,
dust, or metal powders; and any other area where you normally would be advised to turn off
your vehicle engine.
For Vehicles Equipped with an Air Bag
An air bag inflates with great force. Do NOT place objects, including both installed or portable
wireless equipment, in the area over the air bag or in the air bag deployment area. If in-vehicle
wireless equipment is improperly installed and the air bag inflates, serious injury could result.
