Warning: This manual contains important safety

Caution
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation is
subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause
harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference
received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
Your Olympia radio generates RF electromagnetic energy during
transmit mode. This radio is designed for and classified as
“Occupational Use Only”, meaning it must be used only during the
course of employment by individuals aware of the hazards, and
the ways to minimize such hazards.
This radio is NOT intended for use by the “General Population” in
an uncontrolled environment.
Important: Your Olympia radio has been tested and complies
with the FCC RF exposure limits for “Occupational Use Only.” In
addition, your radio complies with the following Standards and
Guidelines with regard to RF energy and electromagnetic energy
levels and evaluation of such levels for exposure to humans:
•
FCC OET Bulletin 65 Supplement C, Edition 01-01, Evaluating
Compliance with FCC Guidelines for Human Exposure to Radio
Frequency Electromagnetic Fields.
3
• American National Standards Institute (C95.1 – 2005), IEEE
Standard for Safety Levels with Respect to Human Exposure to
Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Fields, 3 kHz to 300 GHz.
•
American National Standards Institute (C95.3 – 2002), IEEE
Recommended Practice for the Measurement of Potentially
Hazardous Electromagnetic Fields – RF and Microwave.
•
IEEE Standard 1528-2003.
To ensure that your exposure to RF electromagnetic energy is
within the FCC allowable limits for occupational use, always
adhere to the following guidelines:
•
DO NOT operate the radio without a proper antenna attached,
as this may damage the radio and may also cause you to exceed
FCC RF exposure limits. A proper antenna is the antenna supplied
with this radio by the manufacturer or an antenna specifically
authorized by the manufacturer for use with this radio.
•
DO NOT transmit for more than 50% of total radio use time
(“50% duty cycle”). Transmitting more than 50% of the time
can cause FCC RF exposure compliance requirements to be
exceeded. The radio is transmitting when the “TX indicator”
light is red. You will cause the radio to transmit by pressing the
“PTT” switch.
4
• ALWAYS use Olympia authorized accessories (antennas,
batteries, belt clips, speaker/microphones, etc). Use of
unauthorized accessories can cause the FCC RF exposure
compliance requirements to be exceeded.
•
ALWAYS keep the antenna at least 1 inch (2.5 cm) away from
the body when transmitting and only use the Olympia belt-clips,
listed in this user manual, when attaching the radio to your belt,
etc., to ensure FCC RF exposure compliance requirements are
not exceeded. To provide the recipients of your transmission
the best sound quality, hold the antenna at least 2 inches (5 cm)
from your mouth, and slightly off to one side.
The information listed above provides the user with the
information needed to make him or her aware of RF exposure,
and what to do to assure that this radio operates within the FCC
RF exposure limits of this radio.
Electromagnetic Interference/Compatibility
During transmissions, your Olympia radio generates RF energy that
can possibly cause interference with other devices or systems. To avoid
such interference, turn off the radio in areas where signs are posted
to do so. DO NOT operate the transmitter in areas that are sensitive to
electromagnetic radiation such as hospitals, aircraft, and blasting sites.

Important
!
CAUTION!
NEVER hold the transceiver so that the antenna is very close
to, or touching exposed parts of the body, especially the face or
eyes, while transmitting. The transceiver will perform best if the
microphone is 2 to 4 inches (5 to 10 cm) away from the lips and
the transceiver is vertical.
NEVER operate the transceiver with a headset or other audio
accessories at high volume levels.
NEVER short the terminals of the battery pack.
DO NOT push the PTT key when not actually desiring to transmit.
DO NOT modify the transceiver for any reason.
AVOID using or placing the transceiver in direct sunlight or in
areas with temperatures below -20° C – +60° C / -5° F – +140° F.
KEEP the transceiver from the heavy rain, and NEVER immerse it
in water.
The transceiver construction is water resistant, not waterproof.
6
The use of non-Olympia battery packs/chargers may impair
transceiver performance and invalidate the warranty.
Changes or modifications to this transceiver not expressly
approved by Olympia could void your authority to operate
this transceiver under FCC regulations.
FCC license is required before operating this radio.
