SAFETY TRAINING INFORMATION Your M/A-COM radio generates RF electromagnetic energy during transmit mode. This radio is designed for and classified as “Occupational Use Only” meaning it must be used only during WARNING the course of employment by individuals aware of the hazards and the ways to minimize such hazards. This radio is NOT intended for use by the “General Population” in an uncontrolled environment. This radio has been tested and complies with the FCC RF exposure limits for “Occupational Use Only.
CAUTION To ensure that your exposure to RF electromagnetic energy is within the FCC allowable limits for occupational use, always adhere to the following guidelines: • DO NOT operate the radio without a proper antenna attached, as this may damage the radio and may also cause you to exceed FCC RF exposure limits. A proper antenna is the antenna supplied with this radio by M/A-COM or an antenna specifically authorized by M/A-COM for use with this radio.
exceeded. This radio has been tested for RF exposure compliance at a distance of 1.1 cm from the body and 2.5 cm from the face for a worst-case scenario. However, to provide the recipients of your transmission the best sound quality, hold the antenna at least 5 cm (2 inches) from mouth, and slightly off to one side.
OPERATING RULES AND REGULATIONS Two-way FM radio systems must be operated in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). As an operator of two-way radio equipment, you must be thoroughly familiar with the rules that apply to your particular type of radio operation. Following these rules will help eliminate confusion and will assure the most efficient use of existing radio channels. This will provide a smooth operating radio network.
4. The FCC requires that conversations be brief and confined to business. To save time, use coded messages whenever possible. 5. Using the radio to send personal messages (except in an emergency) is a violation of FCC rules. Send only those messages essential for the business operation. 6. It is against Federal Law to repeat or otherwise make known anything overheard on the radio. Conversations between others sharing your channel must be regarded as confidential.
OPERATING TIPS The following conditions tend to reduce the effective range of two-way radios and should be avoided whenever possible. • Operating the radio in low terrain areas or while under power lines or bridges. • Operating the radio inside of a vehicle or inside metal or steel framed building unless using an outside antenna.
