Safety and Product Information

Health care facilities: Turn the handheld radio off in health care facilities when any regulations posted

in these areas instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care facilities might be using equipment that

could be sensitive to external RF energy.

Aircraft: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and FCC regulations prohibit using the handheld

radio while in the air. Turn the handheld radio off before boarding an aircraft. The effect of using the

handheld radio in an aircraft is unknown. Such use might affect aircraft instrumentation,

communication and performance, might disrupt the network, might otherwise be dangerous to the

operation of the aircraft, and might be illegal. Use any other handheld applications in accordance with

airline regulations for electronic devices.

Dangerous areas

Potentially explosive atmospheres: Turn the handheld radio off when in any area with a potentially

explosive atmosphere, and obey all signs and instructions. Sparks in such areas could cause an

explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death.

Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often, but not always, clearly marked. They include

fueling areas such as gasoline or petrol stations; below deck on boats; fuel or chemical transfer or

storage facilities; vehicles using liquefied petroleum gas (such as propane or butane); 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.

Do not use the handheld phone to report a gas leak in the vicinity of the leak. Leave the area and make

the call from a safe location.

Blasting areas: To avoid interfering with blasting operations, turn the handheld radio off when in a

blasting area or in areas posted: "Turn off two-way radio". Obey all signs and instructions.

Service

Only qualified service personnel should perform repairs to the handheld. Disconnect the power supply

cables from the computer or electrical outlet and refer the handheld or charging accessory for service to

qualified service personnel if any of the following situations occur:

• the power supply cord, plug, or connector is damaged

• liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the handheld or charging accessory

• the handheld or charging accessory has been exposed to rain or water

• the handheld or charging accessory becomes very hot to the touch

• the handheld or charging accessory has been dropped or damaged in any way

• the handheld or charging accessory does not operate normally by following the instructions in the

user documentation

• the handheld or charging accessory exhibits a distinct change in performance

Do not attempt to disassemble the handheld or any charging accessory.

To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, adjust only those controls that are covered in the user

documentation for the handheld. An improper adjustment of other controls might cause damage and

often requires extensive work by a qualified technician to restore the handheld, charging accessory, or

any other accessory to normal operation.

Failure to observe all safety instructions contained in the user documentation for the handheld voids

the Limited Warranty and might lead to suspension or denial of services to the offender, legal action, or

both.
