Important Notice!

FCC RF Exposure Compliance Requirements for Occupational Use Only:

This Radio has been tested and complies with the Federal Communications Commission
(FCC) RF exposure limits for Occupational Use/Controlled exposure environment. In
addition, it complies with the following Standards and Guidelines:

 FCC　96-326, Guidelines for Evaluating the Environmental Effects of Radio-Frequency

Radiation.

 FCC OET Bulletin 65 Edition 97-01 (1997) Supplement C, Evaluating Compliance with

FCC Guidelines for Human Exposure to Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Fields.

 ANSI/IEEE C95.1-1992, IEEE Standard for Safety Levels with Respect to Human

Exposure to Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Fields, 3kHz to 300 GHz.

 ANSI/IEEE C95.3-1992, IEEE Recommended Practice for the Measurement of Potentially

Hazardous Electromagnetic Fields-RF and Microwave.



This radio is NOT approved for use by the general population in an uncontrolled
environment. This radio is restricted to occupational use, work related operations
only where the radio operator must have the knowledge to control its RF exposure
conditions.



When transmitting, hold the radio in a vertical position with its microphone 1 to 2
inches (2.5 to 5 cm) away from your mouth and keep the antenna at least 1 inch
(2.5cm) away from your head and body.

 The radio must be used with a maximum operating duty cycle not exceeding 50 %,

in typical Push-to-Talk (PTT) configurations.
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 red LED on the top of the radio is illuminated.
You can cause the radio to transmit by pressing the PTT button.

 DO NOT transmit when the radio is used in Body Worn configuration.

It must be used ONLY for (1) there is a 4 cm distance from the body during
transmitting, (2) monitoring purposes, using the speaker only and (3) for carrying
purposes.



Always use Vertex Standard authorized accessories.

Before You Begin

Battery Pack Installation and Removal

To install the battery, hold the transceiver with your left hand, so your palm is over the
speaker and your thumb is on the top of the belt clip. Insert the battery pack into the battery
compartment on the back of the radio while tilting the Belt Clip outward, then close the
Battery Pack Latch until it locks in place with a “Click.”
To remove the battery, turn the radio off and remove any protective cases. Open the
Battery Pack latch on the bottom of the radio, then slide the battery downward and out from
the radio while unfolding the Belt Clip.

Caution! : Do not attempt to open any of the rechargeable Li-ion packs, as they could
explode if accidentally short-circuited.

Low Battery Indication

As the battery discharges during use, the voltage gradually becomes lower. When the
battery voltage reaches 6.0 volts, substitute a freshly charged battery and recharge the
depleted pack. The
voltage is low.
Avoid recharging Li-ion batteries often with little use between charges, as this can degrade
the charge capacity. We recommend that you carry an extra, fully-charged pack with you so
the operational battery may be used until depletion (this “deep cycling” technique promotes
better long-term battery capacity).

Operation

Preliminary Steps

Install a charged battery pack onto the transceiver, as described previously.
Screw the supplied antenna onto the Antenna jack. Never attempt to operate this
transceiver without an antenna connected.
