Transmit and Receive Procedure
Transmit and Receive Procedure
Your two-way radio contains a transmitter and a receiver. To control your exposure and
ensure compliance with the general population/uncontrolled environment exposure
limits, always adhere to the following procedure:
• Transmit no more than 50% of the time.
• To receive calls, release the PTT button.
• To transmit (talk), press the Push to Talk (PTT) button.
Transmitting 50% of the time, or less, is important because the radio generates
measurable RF energy exposure only when transmitting (in terms of measuring
standards compliance).

with your skin, a minor burn can result.
If you wear a radio on your body when transmitting, always fit the radio on the belt clip
