generates measurable RF energy exposure only when transmitting (in terms of
measuring for standards compliance).
• Transmit only when people outside the vehicle are at least the
recommended minimum lateral distance away, as shown in Table 1, from
the body of a vehicle with a properly installed antenna. This separation
distance will ensure that there is sufficient distance from a properly installed
(according to installation instructions) externally-mounted antenna to satisfy
the RF exposure requirements in the standards listed above.
NOTE: Table 1 below lists the recommended lateral distance for bystanders in an
uncontrolled environment from the body of a vehicle with an approved,
properly installed transmitting antenna (i.e., monopoles over a ground
plane, or dipoles) at several different ranges of rated radio power for
mobile radios installed in a vehicle.
NOTE: If you are not sure of the rated power of your radio, contact your
Motorola representative or dealer and supply the radio model number
found on the radio model label. If you can not determine the rated power
out, then assure 3-feet separation from the body of the vehicle.
