those limitations. Any adjustments to your radio
must be made by qualified technicians.

To be safe and sure:

• Never open your radio’s case.

• Never change or replace anything in your
radio except the batteries.

Your radio might cause TV or radio interference
even when it is operating properly. To determine
whether your radio is causing the interference,
turn it off. If the interference goes away, your
radio is causing it. Try to eliminate the
interference by moving your radio away from the
receiver. If you cannot eliminate the interference,
the FCC requires that you stop using the radio.

Hazardous Environments: Do not operate the
radio in hazardous environments. Explosion or
fire may result. Do not operate the radio near
unshielded electrical blasting caps.

Under certain conditions, radios can interfere
with blasting operations and may cause an
explosion. Turn your radio OFF to prevent
accidental transmission when in a blasting area
or in areas posted: "Turn off two-way radio."
Construction crews often use remote control RF
devices to set off explosives.

Care and Safety: To clean the radio, use a soft
cloth dampened with water. Do not use cleaners
or solvents because they can harm the body of
the unit and leak inside, causing permanent
damage. Use a dry, lint-free cloth to clean the
battery contacts. Do not submerge the unit in
water. If the unit gets wet, turn it off and remove
the batteries immediately.

Dry the battery compartment with a soft cloth to
minimize potential water damage. Leave the
battery compartment cover off overnight to
ensure complete drying. Do not use the radio
until the unit is completely dry.WARNING! Read
this information before using the radio

In August 1996 the Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) of the United States with its
action in Report and Order FCC 96-326 adopted
an updated safety standard for human exposure
to radio frequency electromagnetic energy
emitted by FCC regulated transmitters.

Those guidelines are consistent with the safety
standard previously set by both U.S. and
international standards bodies. The design of the
radio complies with the FCC guidelines and
these international standards.

Never allow children to operate the radio
without adult supervision and the knowledge of
the following guidelines.

FCC RF EXPOSURE INFORMATION

WARNING! It is up to the user to properly
operate this radio transmitter to insure safe

Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or
attachments could impair call quality, damage
the radio, or result in violation of FCC
regulations.

Do not use the radio with a damaged antenna.
If a damaged antenna comes into contact with
the skin, a minor burn may result. Please
contact your local dealer for a replacement
antenna.

Body-Worn Operation

This device was tested for typical body-worn
operations using the supplied belt-clip.

To maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure
requirements, body-worn operations are
restricted to the supplied belt-clip.

For hand-held operation, the radio should be
held 1 inch from the user's face. The use of
accessories that do not satisfy these
requirements may not comply with FCC RF
exposure requirements and should be avoided.
