Your wireless handheld portable transceiver contains a low power transmit-
ter. When the Push-to-Talk (PTT) button is pushed, the transceiver sends
out radio frequency (RF) signals. In August 1996, the Federal Communica-
tions Commission adopted RF exposure guidelines with safety levels for
hand-held wireless devices.
This device is authorized to operate at a duty factor not to exceed 50% (this
corresponds to 50% transmission time and 50% reception time).
WARNING: To maintain compliance with the FCC's RF exposure guidelines,
this transmitter and its antenna must maintain a separation distance of at
least 1 inch (2.5 centimeters) from your face. Speak in a normal voice, with
the antenna pointed up and away from the face at the required separation
distance.
If you use a headset accessory for this radio, with the radio worn on your
body, use only the STANDARD HORIZON belt clip for this transceiver, and
ensure that the antenna is at least 1 inches (2.5 centimeters) from your body
when transmitting.
Use only the supplied antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or at-
tachments could damage the transmitter, and may violate FCC regulations.
