Audiovox FRS-3000PK - Manual (Page 23)

2. The FRS-3000PK has been designed to maximize performance
and improve transmission range in the field. To avoid interference, it
is recommended that you do not use the units closer than 5 feet apart.
3. For best transmission results, always keep your mouth about 2-3
inches from the microphone (12, *14) and speak slowly in a normal
voice.
4. To increase battery life in the hand-held transceiver, avoid features
such as Scan and Dual Watch. These features will reduce operating
time considerably.
Warning
• Remove the batteries from the hand-held transceiver if it is not expected
to be used for long periods. This will eliminate the possibility of chemi-
cals leaking from the batteries and corroding the transceiver.
• Avoid exposing the transceivers to water or extremes of temperature.
• Do not use these devices in or near a mining facility, which uses re-
motely triggered explosives or in areas labeled “Blasting Area”. Prema-
ture or accidental detonation may result.
• Do not attempt to modify or in any way increase the output of these
transceivers. The outputs are designed to meet the legal limits set by the
FCC.
• Do not use these devices or change the batteries in potentially explo-
sive atmospheres as sparks in such areas could result in an explo-
sion.
• Turn your transceiver off wherever posted notices restrict the use of radios
or cellular telephones. Facilities such as hospitals may use equipment
that is sensitive to RF energy.
• Turn your transceiver off on board aircraft when requested to do so.
• Do not place your hand-held radio in front of a vehicle’s air-bag. If the
air-bag deploys, it could propel the transceiver like a projectile causing
bodily injury.
