.WARNING:
This 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 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.
.CAUTION:
To ensure that your expose to RF electromagnetic energy is within the FCC allowable limits for occupational use,
always adhere to the following guidelines:
