display), hold your radio product as you would a telephone. Speak directly into
the microphone and position the antenna up and over your shoulder.

When using your radio product as a traditional two-way
radio while making group or private calls with the
Group/Private Speaker ON (no speaker icon visible in
the display), hold the radio product in a vertical position
with the microphone one to two inches (2.5 to 5 cm)
away from the lips.

For body-worn operation, with or without an earpiece or
any other accessory, the antenna should be kept at least
one inch (2.5 cm) from the body when transmitting. A Motorola accessory, a
leather carry case with a belt clip, is available for body-worn use.

DO NOT hold the antenna when the radio is “IN USE”. Holding the antenna
affects call quality and may cause the radio product to operate at a higher power
level than needed.

Interference to Medical and Personal Electronic Devices

Most electronic equipment is shielded from RF energy. However, certain
equipment may not be shielded against the RF signals from your radio product.

Pacemakers

The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that a minimum
separation of 6 inches (15 cm) be maintained between a handheld wireless
phone and a pacemaker to avoid potential interference with the pacemaker.
These recommendations are consistent with the independent research by and
recommendations of Wireless Technology Research.

Persons with pacemakers should:

ALWAYS keep the radio product more than six inches from the pacemaker
when the radio product is turned ON.

Not carry the radio product in a breast pocket.

Use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for
interference.

Turn the radio product OFF immediately if you have any reason to suspect
that interference is taking place.

Hearing Aids

Some radio products may interfere with some hearing aids. In the event of such
interference, you may want to consult your hearing aid manufacturer to discuss
alternatives.
