RADIO FREQUENCY ENERGY SAFETY INFORMATION
This KENWOOD transceiver has been tested and complies with the
standards listed below, in regards to Radio Frequency (RF) energy and
electromagnetic energy (EME) generated by the transceiver.
• FCC RF exposure limits for Occupational Use Only. RF Exposure limits adopted
by the FCC are generally based on recommendations from the National Council
on Radiation Protection and Measurements, & the American National Standards
Institute.
• FCC OET Bulletin 65 Edition 97-01 Supplement C
• American National Standards Institute (C95.1 – 1992)
• American National Standards Institute (C95.3 – 1992)
WARNING
This KENWOOD transceiver generates RF EME while transmitting. RF
EME (Radio Frequency Electric & Magnetic Energy) has the potential
to cause slight thermal, or heating effects to any part of your body less
than the recommended distance from this radio transmitter's antenna.
RF energy exposure is determined primarily by the distance to and the
power of the transmitting device. In general, RF exposure is minimized
when the lowest possible power is used or transmission time is kept to
the minimum required for consistent communications, and the greatest
distance possible from the antenna to the body is maintained. The
transceiver has been designed for and is classifi ed for Occupational Use
Only. Occupational/ controlled exposure limits are applicable to situations
in which persons are exposed to RF energy as a consequence of their
employment, and such persons have been made aware of the potential
for exposure and can exercise control over their exposure. This means
you can use the transceiver only if you are aware of the potential hazards
of operating a transceiver and are familiar in ways to minimize these
hazards. This transceiver is not intended for use by the general public in
uncontrolled environments. Uncontrolled environment exposure limits are
applicable to situations in which the general public may be exposed to RF
energy, or in which the persons who are exposed as a consequence of
their employment may not be fully aware of the potential for exposure or
cannot exercise control over their exposure.
The following list provides you with the information required to ensure that
you are aware of RF exposure and of how to operate this transceiver so that
the FCC RF exposure limitations are not exceeded.
• While transmitting (holding the PTT switch or speaking with VOX enabled), always
keep the antenna and the radio at least 3 cm (1 3/16 inches) from your body or
face, as well as from any bystanders. A LED on the top of the radio shows red
when the transmitter is operating in both PTT and VOX modes.
• Do not transmit for more than 50% of the total transceiver use time; transmitting
over 50% of the total use time may exceed the limits in accordance to the FCC RF
exposure requirements. Nominal transceiver operation is 5% transmission time,
5% reception time, and 90% stand-by time.
• Use only the specifi ed antenna for this transceiver; this may be either the antenna
provided with the transceiver or another antenna authorized by KENWOOD.
Use only KENWOOD authorized accessories (antennas, battery packs,
belt clips, Speaker/ Mics or headsets etc.): When worn on the body, always
place the radio in a KENWOOD recommended clip or carrying case meant
for this product. The use of other than recommended or approved body-
worn accessories may result in RF exposure levels which exceed the FCC's
occupational/ controlled environment RF exposure limits.
CAUTION
To ensure that your exposure to RF EME is within the FCC limits for
occupational use, you must observe and adhere to the above points.
Electromagnetic Interference Compatibility
Electronic devices are susceptible to electromagnetic interference (EMI)
if they are not adequately shielded or designed for electromagnetic
compatibility. Because this transceiver generates RF energy, it can cause
interference to such equipment.
• Turn OFF your transceiver where signs are posted to do so. Hospitals and health
care facilities use equipment that is sensitive to electromagnetic radiation.
• Turn OFF your transceiver while on board an aircraft when so instructed. Use
of the transceiver must be in accordance with airline regulations and/or crew
instructions.

NOTICES TO THE USER
◆ Refer service to qualifi ed technicians only.
Safety: It is important that the operator is aware of, and understands,
hazards common to the operation of any transceiver.
One or more of the following statements may be applicable:
FCC WARNING
This equipment generates or uses radio frequency energy. Changes or
modifi cations to this equipment may cause harmful interference unless the
modifi cations are expressly approved by the party responsible/
JVC KENWOOD. The user could lose the authority to operate this
equipment if an unauthorized change or modifi cation is made.
INFORMATION TO THE DIGITAL DEVICE USER REQUIRED BY THE FCC
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a
Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits
are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference
in a residential installation.
This equipment generates, uses and can generate radio frequency energy
and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may
cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is
no guarantee that the interference will not occur in a particular installation.
If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television
reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on,
the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of
the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment to an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the
receiver is connected.
• Consult the dealer for technical assistance.
FCC LICENSE INFORMATION
Your KENWOOD transceiver operates on communications frequencies
which are subject to FCC (Federal Communications Commission) Rules &
Regulations. FCC Rules require that all operators using Private Land Mobile
radio frequencies obtain a radio license before operating their equipment.
Application for license must be made on FCC form 601, schedules D and H,
and Remittance form 159.
FAX: Forms can be obtained by fax from the FCC Fax-On-Demand system.
Call 1-202-418-0177 from your fax machine and request document number
000601 for the form, schedules, and instructions.
MAIL: Forms can be ordered by telephone, and will be sent to you by fi rst
class mail. Call the FCC Forms Hotline at 1-800-418-FORM (1-800-418-
3676).
INTERNET: Form 601 and instructions can be downloaded from the FCC
Forms website at
http://www.fcc.gov/formpage.html
Before fi lling out your Form 601 application Technical Data section, you must
decide on which frequencies you will operate. See the frequency charts on
the USER MANUAL.
QUESTIONS? Call the FCC for license application questions at

The RBRC Recycle seal found on KENWOOD lithium-ion
(Li-ion) battery packs indicates KENWOOD's voluntary par-
ticipation in an industry program to collect and recycle Li-ion
batteries after their operating life has expired. The RBRC
program is an alternative to disposing Li-ion batteries with
your regular refuse or in municipal waste streams, which is
illegal in some areas.
For information on Li-ion battery recycling in your area, call (toll free)
1-800-8-BATTERY (1-800-822-8837).
KENWOOD's involvement in this program is part of our commitment to
preserve our environment and conserve our natural resources.
