Portable Radio Operation and EME Exposure
Antenna Care
Use only the supplied or an approved replacement antenna. Unauthorized
antennas, modifications, or attachments could damage the radio and may violate
FCC regulations.
DO NOT hold the antenna when the radio is “IN USE.” Holding the antenna
affects the effective range.
Two-Way Radio Operation
When using your radio as a traditional two-way radio, hold the radio in a vertical
position with the microphone two to three inches (5. 0 to 7.5 cm) away from the lips.
Body-Worn Operation
To maintain compliance with FCC/Health Canada RF exposure guidelines, if you
wear a radio on your body when transmitting, always place the radio in a Motorola
supplied or approved clip, holder, holster, case, or body harness for this
product. Use of non-Motorola-approved accessories may exceed FCC RF
exposure guidelines. If you do not use a body-worn accessory, ensure the radio
and its antenna are at least one inch (2.5 cm) from your body when
transmitting.
Data Operation
When using any data feature of the radio, with or without an accessory cable,
position the radio and its antenna at least one inch (2.5 cm) from the body.

Electromagnetic Interference/Compatibility
Note: Nearly every electronic device is susceptible to electromagnetic interference
(EMI) if inadequately shielded, designed or otherwise configured for
electromagnetic compatibility.
Facilities
To avoid electromagnetic interference and/or compatibility conflicts, turn off your
radio in any facility where posted notices instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health
care facilities may be using equipment that is sensitive to external RF energy.
Aircraft
When instructed to do so, turn off your radio when on board an aircraft. Any use of a
radio must be in accordance with applicable regulations per airline crew instructions.
Medical Devices
Pacemakers
The Advanced Medical Technology Association recommends that a minimum
separation of 6 inches (15 centimeters) be maintained between a handheld wireless
radio and a pacemaker. These recommendations are consistent with the
independent research by, and recommendations of the U.S. Food and Drug
Administration.
