Maxon SP210U2 Manual

SP-210
FCC RF EXPOSURE COMPLIANCE REQUIREMENTS FOR OCCUPATIONAL USE
ONLY
The Federal Communications Commission (FCC), with its action in General Docket 93-62, November 7,
1997, has adopted a safety standard for human exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) electromagnetic energy
emitted by FCC regulated equipment. Maxon subscribes to the same safety standard for the use of its
products. Proper operation of this radio will result in user exposure far below the Occupational Safety and
Health Act (OSHA) and Federal Communications Commission limits.
DO NOT transmit for more than 50% of total radio use time (50% duty cycle). Transmitting more than
50% of the time can cause FCC RF exposure compliance requirements to be exceeded.
This radio is NOT approved for use by the general population in an uncontrolled environment. This radio
is restricted to occupational use, work related operations only where radio operator must have the
knowledge to control the user's exposure conditions for satisfying the higher exposure limit allowed for
occupational use.
When transmitting, hold the radio in a vertical position with its microphone 1 inches (2.5 cm) away from
your mouth.
The radio is transmitting when the red LED on the front of the radio is illuminated. You can cause the
radio to transmit by pressing the PTT bar on the radio.
These are required operating configurations for meeting FCC RF exposure compliance.
Failure to observe these restrictions mean violation.
RF EXPOSURE COMPLIANEC AND CONTROL GUIDELINES AND OPERATING
INSTRUCTIONS
To control your exposure and ensure compliance with the occupational/controlled environment exposure
limits, always adhere to the following procedures.
Guidelines:
• Do not remove the RF Exposure Label from the device.
Operating Instructions:
• Hold the radio in a vertical position in front of face with the microphone (and the other parts of the radio,
including the antenna) at least one inch (2.5 cm) away from the nose. Keeping the radio at the proper
distance is important because RF exposures decrease with distance from the antenna. The antenna should be
kept away from eyes.
• When worn on the body, always place the radio in a Maxon Telecom approved clip, holder, holster, case,
or body harness for this product. Using approved body-worn accessories is important because the use of
Maxon Telecom or other manufacturer's non-approved accessories may result in exposure levels which
exceed the FCC's occupational/controlled environment RF exposure limits.
• Use only Maxon Telecom approved supplied or replacement antennas, batteries, and accessories. Use of
non-Maxon Telecom approved antennas, batteries, and accessories may exceed the FCC RF
exposure guidelines.
