Safety and compliance warnings
Radio frequency exposure information
For your own safety and to ensure you comply with the
Federal Communication Commission’s (FCC) radio
frequency (RF) exposure guidelines, please read the following
information before using this radio.
Using this radio
You should use this radio only for work-related purposes (it is
not authorized for any other use) and if you are fully aware
of, and can exercise control over, your exposure to RF energy.
To prevent exceeding FCC RF exposure limits, you must
control the amount and duration of RF that you and other
people are exposed to.
It is also important that you:
■ Do not remove the RF exposure label from the radio.
■ Ensure this RF exposure information accompanies the
radio when it is transferred to other users.
■ Do not use the radio if you do not adhere to the guide-
lines on controlling your exposure to RF.
Controlling your exposure to RF energy
This radio emits RF energy or radio waves primarily when
calls are made. RF is a form of electromagnetic energy (as is
sunlight), and there are recommended levels of maximum
RF exposure.
To control your exposure to RF and comply with the maximum exposure limits for occupational/controlled environments, follow these guidelines:
■ Do not talk (transmit) on the radio more than the rated
transmit duty cycle. This is important because the radio
radiates more energy when it is transmitting than when
it is receiving.
Safety and compliance warnings 11
■ While you are transmitting (talking or sending data) on
the radio, you must ensure that there is always a distance
of 0.9m (35 inches) between people and the antenna.
This is the minimum safe distance.
■ Use the radio only with Tait-approved antennas and
attachments, and make only authorized modifications to
the antenna otherwise you could damage the radio and
violate FCC regulations.
Website: For more information on what RF energy is
and how to control your exposure to it, go to
http://www.fcc.gov/oet/rfsafety/rf-faqs.html.
Compliance with RF energy exposure
standards
This two-way radio complies with these RF energy exposure
standards and guidelines:
■ United States Federal Communications Commission,
Code of Federal Regulations; 47 CFR 1.1307, 1.1310
and 2.1091
■ 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.
This radio complies with the IEEE (FCC) and ICNIRP exposure
limits for occupational/controlled RF exposure environments
at operating duty factors of up to 50% talk to 50 % listen.
Radio frequency emissions limits in the USA
Part 15 of the FCC Rules imposes RF emission limits on electronic equipment to prevent interference to reception of
broadcast services.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the condition that this device does not
cause harmful interference.
12 Safety and compliance warnings
Note: Changes or modifications to this device that are not
expressly approved by Tait Electronics Ltd may make
its use illegal.
Health, safety and electromagnetic compatibility
in Europe
In the European Community, radio and telecommunications
equipment is regulated by Directive 1999/5/EC, also known
as the Radio and Telecommunications Terminal Equipment
(R&TTE) directive. The requirements of this directive include
protection of health and safety of users, as well as
electromagnetic compatibility.
Intended purpose of product
This product is an FM radio transceiver. Its intended purpose
is for radio communication in Private Mobile Radio (PMR)
services or Public Access Mobile Radio (PAMR) services.
Note: This product can be programmed for frequencies or
emissions that may make its use illegal. Where applicable, a license must be obtained before this product
is used. All license requirements must be observed.
Limitations may apply to transmitter power, operating
frequency, channel spacing, and emission.
Declaration of conformity
Brief Declarations of Conformity appear on page 1.
Website: To download the formal declaration of
conformity, go to http://eudocs.taitworld.com/.
A signed and dated paper copy of the declaration of
conformity can be obtained from Tait Europe Ltd.
Electromagnetic compatibility in European vehicles
In the European Community, radio equipment fitted to automotive vehicles is regulated by Directive 72/245/EEC, as
amended by 95/54/EC. The requirements of this directive
Safety and compliance warnings 13
cover the electromagnetic compatibility of electrical or electronic equipment fitted to automotive vehicles.
To meet the requirements of Directive 72/245/EEC (as
Note:
amended by 95/54/EC) installation of this product in a
vehicle must be performed according to the instructions
provided, and any guidelines of the vehicle manufacturer.
EN 60950 requirements (25 watt radios)
This radio complies with the European Union standard
EN 60950 when operated up to the rated 33% duty cycle of
two minutes transmit and four minutes receive, and with
ambient temperatures of 30°C or lower.
Caution: Operation outside these limits may cause the
external temperature of the radio to rise higher
than this standard permits.
Safe radio operation
Warning: Observe the following safe operating practices:
■ Switch the radio off at petrol filling stations or near flam-
mable liquids or gases.
■ Switch the radio off in the vicinity of explosive devices
and blasting zones.
■
Using a handheld microphone or a radio while driving a vehicle may violate the laws and legislation that apply in your
country or state. Please check the regulations in your area.
High radio surface temperatures
The bottom surface of the radio and the heatsink fins can
become hot during prolonged operation. Do not touch these
parts of the radio.
Radio protection when changing the vehicle battery
Always remove the fuses from the radio power cable before
charging the vehicle battery, connecting a second battery or using
power from another vehicle (e.g. when jump-starting the vehicle).
