For your safety

Before using your radio, please read the following important safety and compliance information.

Safety warnings used in this guide

Within this guide, the following conventions are used to alert you to important safety information:
Warning: There is a potential risk of death or serious injury.
Caution: There is the risk of minor or moderate injury
to people.
Caution: “Caution” is used without the safety alert symbol
when there is a risk of equipment damage or malfunction.

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:
Note: Do not remove the RF exposure label from the radio.
Ensure this RF exposure information accompanies the radio
Do not use the radio if you do not adhere to the guidelines
6 For your safety
when it is transferred to other users.
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.
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
www.fcc.gov/oet/rfsafety/rf-faqs.html.
For your safety 7

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.
Note: Changes or modifications to this device that are not
expressly approved by Tait Electronics Limited may make its use illegal.
Unapproved modifications or changes to radio
The radio is designed to satisfy the applicable compliance regulations. Do not make modifications or changes to the radio that are not expressly approved by Tait Electronics Limited. Failure to do so could invalidate compliance requirements and void the user’s authority to operate the radio.
8 For your safety
Health, safety and electromagnetic compatibility in Europe
In the European Union, 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 use

This product is an FM radio transceiver. It is intended for radiocommunication in the Private Mobile Radio (PMR) or Public Access Mobile Radio (PAMR) services, to be used in all member states of the European Union (EU) and states within the European Economic Area (EEA).

Restrictions

This product can be programmed to transmit on frequencies that are not harmonised throughout the EU/EEA, and will require a licence to operate in each member state.
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.

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 cover the electromagnetic compatibility of electrical or electronic equipment fitted to automotive vehicles.
Note: To meet the requirements of Directive 72/245/EEC (as
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.
10 For your safety

Interference with electronic devices

Some electronic devices may be prone to malfunction due to the lack of protection from RF energy that is present when your radio is transmitting.
Examples of electronic devices that may be affected by RF
energy are:
vehicular electronic systems such as fuel injection, anti-skid
brakes, and cruise control
medical devices such as hearing aids and pacemakers
medical equipment in hospitals or health care facilities.
Consult the manufacturer (or its representative) of the equipment to determine whether these electronic circuits will perform normally when the radio is transmitting.
Frequency band reserved for distress beacons
Frequency band 406 to 406.1 MHz is reserved for use by distress beacons. Transmissions should not be made within this frequency band.

Safe radio operation

Warning: Observe the following safe operating practices:
Switch the radio off at petrol filling stations or near
flammable 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.
For your safety 11

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 charging 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).

GPS operation

Tait Electronics Limited is not responsible for the operation or failure of operation of GPS satellites or the availability of GPS satellite signals.
