IMPORTANT WARNINGS: READ
THIS INFORMATION BEFORE
USING YOUR ASTRO DOG
TRACKING SYSTEM:
Exposure to Radio Frequency
Signals–Your product is a low power
radio transmitter and receiver. When
it is on, it receives and also sends out
radio frequency (RF) signals. In August
1996, The Federal Communications
Commissions (FCC) adopted RF
exposure guidelines with safety levels
for handheld wireless radios. Those
guidelines are consistent with safety
standards previously set by both U.S.
and international standards bodies:
American National Standards Institute
(ANSI) IEEE. C95.1-1992; National
Council on Radiation Protection
and Measurements (NCRP) Report
86; International Commission on
Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection

(ICNIRP) 1996. Those standards were
based on comprehensive and periodic
evaluations of the relevant scientific
literature. For example, over 130
scientists, engineers, and physicians
from universities, government health
agencies, and industry reviewed the
available body of research to develop
the ANSI Standard (C95.1). The design
of your radio complies with the FCC
guidelines (and those standards).
For body-worn and face-held
operation, this radio demonstrates
compliance and meets the FCC RF
exposure guidelines for uncontrolled
exposure (general population) when
used with approved accessories
supplied with or designed for this
product. Use of other accessories may
not ensure compliance with FCC RF
exposure guidelines.
Antenna Care–Use only the supplied
antenna. Unauthorized antennas,
