Acoustic Safety

Exposure to loud noises from any source for
extended periods of time may temporarily or
permanently affect your hearing. The louder the
volume of the radio, the sooner your hearing will be
affected. Hearing damage from loud noise is
sometimes undetectable at first, and can have a
cumulative effect.
To protect your hearing, follow these precautions:
• Use the lowest volume necessary to do your job.
• Turn up the volume only if you are in noisy surroundings.
• Turn down the volume before putting on a headset or
headphones.
• Limit the amount of time you use a headset or
headphones at high volume.
• When using the radio without a headset or headphones,
do not place the speaker of the radio directly against your
ear.

Medical Devices

If you use a personal medical device, such as a
pacemaker or hearing aid, consult the manufacturer
of your device to determine if it is adequately
shielded from RF energy. Your physician may be
able to assist you in obtaining this information.

strong, neodymium magnets. If you use a personal
medical device, such as a pacemaker or hearing

determine if it can be used in close proximity to
magnets. Your physician may be able to assist you
in obtaining this information. Also be aware that
magnets can damage other products, including cell
phones, computers, hard drives, and other
electronic devices, as well as credit cards and
magnetic media. Keep the holster away from any
mechanical device that could be affected by a
magnetic field. Consult the manufacturer of your
product to determine if your device or product can
