Safety Requirements Section 0 RF Energy Exposure Awareness and Control Information, and Operational Instructions for FCC Occupational Use Requirements Before using your portable two-way Radio, read this important RF Energy Awareness And Control Information And Operational Instructions to ensure compliance with the FCC’s RF exposure guidelines.
information. Your EFJohnson two-way radio has a RF exposure product label. Also, your EFJohnson user manual, or product manual, or separate safety booklet includes information and operating instructions required to control your RF exposure and to satisfy compliance requirements.
Operating Instructions • Transmit no more than the rated duty factor of 50% of the time. To transmit (talk), push the Push-To-Talk (PTT) button. To receive calls, release the PTT button. Transmitting 50% of the time, or less, is important because this radio generates measurable RF energy exposure only when transmitting (in terms of measuring for standards compliance).
Electromagnetic Interference This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation is subject to the condition that this device does not cause harmful interference. In addition, changes or modification to this equipment not expressly approved by the E.F. Johnson Company could void the user’s authority to operate this equipment (FCC Rules, 47CFR Part 15.19).
S E C T I O N Features Section 1 This manual is applicable to the 5100 ES Models II/III Portable radios, software 6.6.x or later. The availability of many of the following features is controlled by the model of your radio, factory coding of your radio, installed options, firmware version, and field programming. Refer to Section 8 for more information. 1.

S E C T I O N Controls and Display Section 2 2.1 Front Panel Controls The location of these controls is shown in Figure 2.1. Figure 2.
Controls and Display Microphone - The microphone is located behind the small opening shown in Figure 2.1. For best results, hold the radio 2-3 inches from you mouth and speak at a normal conversational level. Do not shout since it distorts your voice and does not increase range. Display - This is a graphical LCD (Liquid Crystal Display). The display backlight can be programmed to turn on when any key is pressed or when the Backlight option switch is pressed or menu parameter selected (see Section 3.5).
