In instances where the product is covered under a "return for replacement" or "return for repair" warranty, a check of the product should be performed prior to shipping the unit back to Motorola. This is to ensure that the product has been correctly programmed or has not been subjected to damage outside the terms of the warranty.
Aftermarket and Accessory Division (AAD). If no part number is assigned, the part is not normally available from Motorola. If the part number is appended with an asterisk, the part is serviceable by Motorola Depot only. If a parts list is not included, this generally means that no user-serviceable parts are available for that kit or assembly.

WARNING: Do not disassemble the FMRC Approved Product unit in any way that exposes the internal electrical circuits of the unit. Radios must ship from the Motorola manufacturing facility with the hazardous atmosphere capability and FM Approval labeling. Radios will not be ÒupgradedÓ to this capability and labeled in the Þeld.
REPAIRS FOR MOTOROLA FMRC APPROVED PRODUCTS ARE THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE USER You should not repair or relabel any Motorola manufactured communication equipment bearing the FMRC Approval label (ÒFMRC Approved ProductÓ) unless you are familiar with the current FMRC Approval standard for repairs and service (ÒClass Number 3605Ó).
Repair of FMRC Approved Products Do Not Substitute Options or Accessories The Motorola communications equipment certiÞed by Factory Mutual is tested as a system and consists of the FM Approved portable, FM Approved battery, and FM Approved accessories or options, or both. This Approved portable and battery combination must be strictly observed. There must be no substitution of items, even if the substitute has been previously Approved with a different Motorola communications equipment unit.

Chapter 4 PERFORMANCE TESTING Introduction The radios have been prepared to meet published speciÞcations through their manufacturing process, with the use of laboratory-quality test equipment of highest accuracy. The recommended Þeld service equipment approaches the accuracy of the manufacturing equipment with a few exceptions.
PERFORMANCE TESTING Test Mode RF Test Mode When the radio is operating in its normal environment, the radioÕs microcontroller controls the RF channel selection, transmitter key-up, and receiver muting. However, when the unit is on the bench for testing, alignment or repair, it is removed from its normal environment. It cannot receive commands from its system and, therefore, the internal microcontroller will not key the transmitter nor unmute the receiver.
