1.1 Regulations and Safety Warnings

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) This device may not cause harmful interference.
(2) This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
Important: Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the
user's authority to operate this device. Your radio is set up to transmit a regulated signal on an assigned frequency. It is
against the law to alter or adjust the settings inside the radio to exceed those limitations. Any adjustments to your radio
must be made by qualified technicians.
To be safe and sure:
• Never open your radio's case.
• Never change or replace anything in your radio except the battery.
Your radio might cause TV or radio interference even when it is operating properly. To determine whether your radio is
causing the interference, turn it off. If the interference goes away, your radio is causing it. Try to eliminate the interference by
moving your radio away from the receiver. If you cannot eliminate the interference, the FCC requires that you stop using the
radio.
Hazardous Environments: Do not operate the radio in hazardous environments. Explosion or fire may result.
Do not operate the radio near unshielded electrical blasting caps.
Under certain conditions, radios can interfere with blasting operations and may cause an explosion. Turn your radio OFF to
prevent accidental transmission when in a blasting area or in areas posted: "Turn off two-way radio." Construction crews
often use remote control RF devices to set off explosives.
Care and Safety: To clean the radio, use a soft cloth dampened with water. Do not use cleaners or solvents because they can
harm the body of the unit and leak inside, causing permanent damage. Use a dry, lint-free cloth to clean the battery
contacts.
