RF ENERGY EXPOSURE AND PRODUCT SAFETY GUIDE FOR TWO-WAY RADIOS
•User instructions should accompany the device when transferred to other users.
•Do not use this device if the operational requirements described herein are not met.
This two-way radio uses electromagnetic energy in the radio frequency (RF) spectrum to provide communica-
tions between two or more users over a distance. RF energy, which when used improperly, 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 of 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: http://www.who.int/en/
When two-way radios are used as a consequence of employment, the Local Government Regulations 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 to specific user awareness information.
Your Retevis two-way radio has a RF Exposure Product 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.
Radio License(only applicable to licensed radio)
Governments keep the radios in classification, business two-way radios operate on radio frequencies that are
regulated by the local radio management departments (FCC, ISED, OFCOM, ANFR, BFTK, Bundesnetzagen-
tur...).To transmit on these frequencies, you are required to have a license issued by them. The detailed
classification and the use of your two radios, please contact the local government radio management
departments.
Use of this radio outside the country where it was intended to be distributed is subject to government regulations
and may be prohibited.
Unauthorized modification and adjustment
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance may void the user's
authority granted by the local government radio management departments to operate this radio and should not
be made. To comply with the corresponding requirements, transmitter adjustments should be made only by or
under the supervision of a person certified as technically qualified to perform transmitter maintenance and repairs
in the private land mobile and fixed services as certified by an organization representative of the user of those
services.
Replacement of any transmitter component (crystal, semiconductor, etc.) not authorized by the local government
radio management departments equipment authorization for this radio could violate the rules.
FCC Requirements:
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and
(2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
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 radiate 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 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.
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.
