Exposure to Radio Frequency Energy

Information on Safe Operation

Read This Information Before Using Your Oricom Radio.

Transmit and Receive Procedure

Your two-way radio contains a transmitter and a
receiver. To control your exposure and ensure
compliance with the general population/uncontrolled
environment exposure limits, always adhere to the
following procedure:

• Transmit no more than 50% of the time.

• To receive calls, release the PTT button.

• To transmit (talk), press the Push to Talk (PTT) button.

Transmitting 50% of the time, or less, is important
because the radio generates measurable RF energy
exposure only when transmitting (in terms of measuring
standards compliance).

Exposure to Radio Frequency Energy

Your Oricom two-way radio complies with Australian
Communications Authority Radiocommunications
(Electromagnetic Radiation-Human Exposure)
Standard, 2003.

To assure optimal radio performance and make sure
human exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic
energy is within the guidelines set out in the above
standards always adhere to the following procedures.

Radio Operation and EME Exposure

Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments
could damage the radio and violate compliance.

Do NOT hold the antenna when the radio is “IN USE.”
Holding the antenna affects the effective range.

Do not use the radio if the antenna is damaged. If a
damaged antenna makes contact with your skin, a
minor burn can result.

If you wear a radio on your body when transmitting,
always fit the radio on the belt clip (supplied). Always
ensure the radio and it's antenna are at least 2.5 cm
from your body when transmitting.
