Radio Frequency Energy Safety Information

This Hong Kong Communication Co Ltd transceiver has been tested and

complies with the standards listed below, in regards to Radio Frequency

(RF) energy and electromagnetic energy (EME) generated by the trans-

ceiver.

FCC RF exposure limits for Occupational Use Only. RF Exposure limits

adopted by the FCC are generally based on recommendations from the

National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements, & the

American National Standards Institute.

Warning

This Hong Kong Communication Co Ltd transceiver generates RF EME

while transmitting. RF EME (Radio Frequency Electric&Magnetic En-

ergy) has the potential to cause slight thermal, or heating effects to any part

of your body less than the recommended distance from this radio trans-

mitter's antenna. RF energy exposure is determined primarily by the dis-

tance to and the power is used or transmission time is kept to the minimum

required for consistent communications, and the greatest distance possible

from the antenna to the body is maintained. The transceiver has been de-

signed for and is classified for Occupational Use Only. Occupational/

consequence of their employment, and such persons have been made aware

of the potential for exposure and can exercise control over their exposure.

This means you can use the transceiver only if you are aware of the po-

tential hazards of operating a transceiver and are familiar in ways to mini-

mize the hazards. This transceiver is not intended for use by the general

public in uncontrolled environment. Uncontrolled environment exposed to

RF energy, or in which the persons who are exposed as a consequence of

their employment may not be fully aware of the potential for exposure or

cannot exercise control over their exposure.

The following list provides you with the information required to ensure that

you are aware of RF exposure and of how to operate this transceiver so that

the FCC RF exposure limitations are not exceeded.

While transmitting (holding the PTT switch or speaking with VOX

enabled), always keep the antenna and the radio at least 3 cm (1 3/16

inches) from your body or face, as well as from any bystanders. A LED on

the top of the radio shows red when the transmitter is operating in both PTT

and VOX modes.

Do not transmit for more than 50% of the total transceiver use time;

transmitting over 50% of the total use operation is 5% transmission time,

5% reception time, and 90% stand-by time.

Use only Hong Kong Communication Co Ltd authorized accessories

(antenna, battery packs, belt clips, Speaker/Mics or headsets etc.). When

worn on the body, always place the radio in a Hong Kong Communication

Co Ltd recommended clip or carrying case meant for this product. The use

of other than recommended or approved body-worn environment RF ex-

posure limits.

Caution

To ensure that your exposure to RF EME is within the FCC limits for oc-

cupational use, you must observe and adhere to the above points.

Electromagnetic Interference Compatibility

Electronic devices are susceptible to electromagnetic interference (EMI) if

they are not adequately shielded or designed for electromagnetic compati-

bility. Besure this transceiver generates RF energy, it can cause interfer-

ence to such equipment.

TURN OFF your transceiver where signs are posted to do so. Hospi-

tals and health care facilities use equipment that is sensitive to electro-

magnetic radiation.

TURN OFF your transceiver while on board an aircraft when so in-

structed, Use of the transceiver must be in accordance with airline regula-

tions and/or crew instructions.
