iv
Your Motorola two-way radio complies with the following RF energy exposure standards and
guidelines:
United States Federal Communications Commission, Code of Federal Regulations; 47 CFR part 2
●
sub-part J
American National Standards Institute (ANSI) / Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers
●
(IEEE) C95. 1-1992
Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) C95.1-1999 Edition
●
International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) 1998
●
Ministry of Health (Canada) Safety Code 6. Limits of Human Exposure to Radiofrequency
●
Electromagnetic Fields in the Frequency Range from 3 kHz to 300 GHz, 1999
Australian Communications Authority Radiocommunications (Electromagnetic Radiation - Human
●
Exposure) Standard 2003
ANATEL, Brasil Regulatory Authority, Resolution 256 (April 11, 2001) "additional requirements for

RF Exposure Compliance and Control Guidelines and Operating Instructions
To control exposure to yourself and others and to ensure compliance with the RF exposure limits,
always adhere to the following procedures.
Guidelines :
User awareness instructions should accompany device when transferred to other users.
●
Do not use this device if the operational requirements described herein are not met.
●
Instructions :
Transmit no more that the rated duty factor of 50% of the time. To transmit (talk), push the
●
Push-To-Talk (PTT) button. To receive calls, release the PTT button.
Transmitting 50% of the time, or less, is important because this radio generates measurable RF
energy exposure only when transmitting (in terms of measuring for standards compliance).
Transmit only when people outside the vehicle are at least the recommended minimum
●
lateral distance away, as shown in Table 1, from the body of a vehicle with a properly
installed antenna. This separation distance will ensure that there is sufficient distance from a
properly installed (according to installation instructions) externally-mounted antenna to satisfy the
RF exposure requirements in the standards listed above.
Note:Table 1 lists the recommended lateral distance for bystanders in an uncontrolled environment
from the body of a vehicle with an approved, properly installed transmitting antenna (i.e monopoles
over a ground plane, or dipoles) at several different ranges of rated radio power for mobile radios
installed in a vehicle.
Mobile Radio Rated Power
Less than 7 Watts
7 to 15 Watts
16 to 39 Watts
40 to 110 Watts
If you are not sure of the rated power of your radio, contact your Motorola representative or dealer
and supply the radio model number found on the radio model label. If you cannot determine the rated
power out, then assure 90cms (3 feet) separation from the body of the vehicle.
Table 1: Recommended Lateral Distances
(see Note below)
Minimum Lateral Distance From
Vehicle Body
20 cm (8 Inches)
30 cm (1 Ft)
60 cm (2 Ft)
90 cm (3 Ft)
