Safety Precaution
Your wireless hand-held portable transceiver contains a low power
transmitter. When the Push-to-Talk (PTT) button is pushed it sends
out radio frequency (RF) signals. The device is authorized to
operate at a duty factor not to exceed 50%. In August 1996, the
Federal Communications Commissions (FCC) adopted RF exposure
guidelines with safety levels for hand-held wireless devices.
To maintain compliance with the FCC’s RF exposure guidelines
hold the transmitter and antenna at least 1 inch (2.5 centimeters)
from your face and speak in a normal voice, with the antenna
pointed up and away from the face. If you wear the handset
on your body while using the headset accessory, use only the
supplied belt clip for this product and when transmitting, take it
out of the belt to ensure that the antenna is at least 1 inch (2.5
centimeters) from your body.
