Protect Your Hearing; Avoid Burns; Safety Operation - Retevis RT32 User Manual

Protect your hearing:

• 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 adding headset or earpiece.
• Limit the amount of time you use headsets or earpieces at high
volume.
• When using the radio without a headset or earpiece, do not
place the radio's speaker directly against your ear
Note: Exposure to loud noises from any source for extended
periods of time may temporarily or permanently affect your
hearing. The louder the radio's volume, the less time is required
before your hearing could be affected. Hearing damage from loud
noise is sometimes undetectable at first and can have a
cumulative effect.

Avoid Burns

Antennas
•Do not use any portable radio that has a damaged antenna. If a
damaged antenna comes into contact with the skin when the radio
is in use, a minor burn can result.
Batteries (If appropriate)
•When the conductive material such as jewelry, keys or chains
touch exposed terminals of the batteries, may complete an
electrical circuit (short circuit the battery) and become hot to cause
bodily injury such as burns. Exercise care in handling any battery,
particularly when placing it inside a pocket, purse or other
container with metal objects
Long transmission
•When the transceiver is used for long transmissions, the radiator
and chassis will become hot.
