Important Safety and Product Information
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,
modifications, or attachments could
damage the radio and may violate FCC
regulations. Warning: Do not use any
radio that has a damaged antenna,
because if it comes into contact with
your skin, a minor burn can result.
Electronic Devices–Most modern
electronic equipment is shielded
from RF signals. However, certain
equipment may not be shielded against
