RF ENERGY EXPOSURE AND PRODUCT SAFETY GUIDE FOR
PORTABLE TWO-WAY RADIOS
Before using this radio, read this guide which contains important
operating instructions for safe usage and RF energy awareness
and control for compliance with applicable standards and
regulations.
ATTENTION!
This two-way radio uses electromagnetic energy in the radio frequency (RF) spectrum to provide
communications between two or more users over a distance. RF energy, which when used improp-
erly, can cause biological damage.
All Retevis two-way radios are designed, manufactured, and tested to ensure they meet
government-established RF exposure levels. In addition, manufacturers also recommend specific
operating instructions to users of two-way radios. These instructions are important because they
inform users about RF energy exposure and provide simple procedures on how to control it.
Please refer to the following websites for more information on what RF energy exposure is and how
to control your exposure to assure compliance with established RF exposure limits:

Local Government Regulations
When two-way radios are used as a consequence of employment, the Local Government Regulati-
ons requires users to be fully aware of and able to control their exposure to meet occupational
requirements. Exposure awareness can be facilitated by the use of a product label directing users

Label. Also, your Retevis user manual, or separate safety booklet includes information and operating
instructions required to control your RF exposure and to satisfy compliance requirements.
