Repair of FMRC Approved Products
REPAIRS FOR MOTOROLA PRODUCTS WITH FMRC APPROVAL ARE THE RESPONSIBILITY
OF THE USER.
You should not repair or relabel any Motorola- manufactured communication equipment bearing the
FMRC Approval label ("FMRC Approved Product") unless you are familiar with the current FMRC
Approval standard for repairs and service ("Class Number 3605").
You may want to consider using a repair facility that operates under 3605 repair service approval.
WARNING: Incorrect repair or relabeling of any FMRC Approved Product unit could

adversely affect the Approval rating of the unit.

WARNING: Use of a radio that is not intrinsically safe in a hazardous atmosphere could
result in serious injury or death.
FMRC's Approval Standard Class Number 3605 is subject to change at any time without notice to
you, so you may want to obtain a current copy of 3605 from FMRC. Per the December 1994
publication of 3605, some key definitions and service requirements are as follows:
2.2.1 Repair
A repair constitutes something done internally to the unit that would bring it back to its original
condition—Approved by FMRC. A repair should be done in an FMRC Approved facility.
Items not considered as repairs are those in which an action is performed on a unit which does not
require the outer casing of the unit to be opened in a manner which exposes the internal electrical
circuits of the unit. You do not have to be an FMRC Approved Repair Facility to perform these actions.
2.2.2 Relabeling
The repair facility shall have a method by which the replacement of FMRC Approval labels are
controlled to ensure that any relabeling is limited to units that were originally shipped from the
Manufacturer with an FM Approval label in place. FMRC Approval labels shall not be stocked by the
repair facility. An FMRC Approval label shall be ordered from the original manufacturer as needed to
repair a specific unit. Replacement labels may be obtained and applied by the repair facility providing
satisfactory evidence that the unit being relabeled was originally an FMRC Approved unit. Verification
may include, but is not limited to: a unit with a damaged Approval label, a unit with a defective housing
displaying an Approval label, or a customer invoice indicating the serial number of the unit and
purchase of an FMRC Approved model.
