Safety and General Information

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 receive calls, release the PTT button.

• To transmit (talk), press the Push to Talk (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).

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 regulations.

Do NOT hold the antenna when the radio is "IN USE." Holding the

antenna affects its effective range.

Body-Worn Operation

To maintain compliances with 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

RF exposure guidelines. If you do not use one of the Motorola-supplied or

approved body-worn accessories and are not using the radio held in the

normal use position, ensure the radio and its antenna are at least 1 inch

(2.5cm) from your body when transmitting.

Data Operation

If applicable, 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. Operation is subject to the

following two conditions:

1. This device may not cause harmful interference; and

2. This device must accept any interference received, including

interference that may cause undesired operation.

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 onboard 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 cm) 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.

People with pacemakers should:

• ALWAYS keep the radio more than 6 inches (15 cm) from their

pacemaker when the radio is turned ON.

• Not carry the radio in the breast pocket.

• Use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for

interference.

• Turn the radio OFF immediately if there is any reason to suspect

that interference is taking place.

Medical Devices – Hearing Aids

Some digital wireless radios may interfere with some hearing aids. In

the event of such interference, you may want to consult your hearing

aid manufacturer to discuss alternatives.

Medical Devices – Other

If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer

of your device to determine if it is adequately shielded from RF energy.

Your physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this information.

Safety and General Use While Driving

Check the laws and regulations regarding the use of radios in the area

where you drive, and always obey them. If you do use your radio while

driving, please:

• Give full attention to driving and to the road.

• Use hands-free operation, if available.

• Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call if

driving conditions so require.

The use of a two-way radio while engaged in activities requiring

concentration may cause distraction or otherwise impair your ability to

safely participate in such activities. Always use technology safely.

Do not place a portable radio in the area over an air bag or in the air

bag deployment area. Air bags inflate with great force. If a portable

radio is placed in the air bag deployment area and the air bag inflates,

the radio may be propelled with great force and cause serious injury to

occupants of the vehicle.

Potentially Explosive Atmospheres

Turn off your radio prior to entering any area with a potentially

explosive atmosphere. Only radio types that are especially qualified

should be used in such areas as "Intrinsically Safe." Do not remove,

install or charge batteries in such areas. Sparks in a potentially

explosive atmosphere can cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily

injury or even death.

Note: The areas with potentially explosive atmospheres referred to

above include fueling areas such as below decks on boats, fuel or

chemical transfer or storage facilities, areas where the air contains

chemicals or particles (such as grain, dust or metal powders) and any

other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your

vehicle engine. Areas with potentially explosive atmospheres are

often—but not always—posted.

Blasting Caps and Areas

To avoid possible interference with blasting operations, turn off your

radio when you are near electrical blasting caps, in a blasting area, or

in areas posted "Turn off two-way radios." Obey all signs and

instructions.

Operational Cautions

Antennas

Do not use any portable radio that has a damaged antenna. If a

damaged antenna comes into contact with your skin, a minor burn can

result.

Batteries

All batteries can cause property damage and/or bodily injury such as

burns if a conductive material—like jewelry, keys or beaded

chains—touch exposed terminals. The conductive material may

complete an electrical circuit (short circuit) and become quite hot.

Exercise care in handling any charged battery, particularly when

placing it inside a pocket, purse or other container with metal objects.

Exercise care when removing NiMH or AA batteries. Do not use sharp

or conductive tools to remove either of these batteries.

Battery Charger Safety Instructions:

Save these Instructions

1. Do not expose the charger to rain or snow.

2. Do not operate or disassemble the charger if it has received a sharp

blow, or has been dropped or damaged in any way.

3. Never alter the AC cord or plug provided with the unit. If the plug

will not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a qualified

electrician. An improper condition can result in a risk of electric

shock.

4. To reduce the risk of damage to the cord or plug, pull the plug rather

than the cord when disconnecting the charger from the AC

receptacle.

5. To reduce the risk of electric shock, unplug the charger from the

outlet before attempting any maintenance or cleaning.

6. Use of an attachment not recommended or sold by Motorola may

result in a risk of fire, electric shock or personal injury.

7. Make sure the cord is located so it will not be stepped on, tripped

over or subjected to damage or stress.

8. An extension cord should not be used unless absolutely necessary.

Use of an improper extension cord could result in a risk of a fire

and/or electric shock. If an extension cord must be used, make sure

that:

• The pins on the plug of the extension cord are the same number,

size and shape as those on the plug of the charger.

• The extension cord is properly wired and in good electrical

condition.

• The extension cord size is 18 AWG for lengths up to 100 feet,

and 16 AWG for lengths up to 150 feet.

9. The supply cord of the switching adaptor cannot be replaced. If the

cord is damaged, please refer to warranty section.
