8 Safety Information for the MEA Products
The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) with its action in ET Docket 96-8 has adopted
a safety standard for human exposure to radio frequency (RF) electromagnetic energy emitted
by FCC certified equipment. Motorola' MEA products meet the uncontrolled environmental
limits found in OET-65 and ANSI C95.1, 1991. Proper operation of this radio according to the
instructions found in this manual and the hardware and software guides on the MEA CD will
result in user exposure that is substantially below the FCC recommended limits.
