Important Information on Safe and Efficient Operation.
Read This Information Before Using Your Radio.
The information provided in this document supersedes the general safety information in user guides
published prior to December 1, 2002.
Transmit and Receive Procedure
Your two-way radio contains a transmitter and a receiver. To control your exposure and ensure compliance
with the general population/uncontrolled environment exposure limits, always adhere to the following
procedure:

Transmit no more than 50% of the time.
•
To transmit (talk), press the Push to Talk (PTT) button.
•
To receive calls, release the PTT button.
Transmitting 50% of the time, or less, is important because the radio generates measurable RF energy
exposure only when transmitting (in terms of measuring standards compliance).

guidelines regarding exposure of human beings to radio frequency electromagnetic energy:
