As with all fixed site antenna installations, it is the responsibility of the licensee to
manage the site in accordance with applicable regulatory requirements and may
require additional compliance actions such as site survey measurements, signage, and
site access restrictions in order to ensure that exposure limits are not exceeded.
Electromagnetic Interference/Compatibility
Note
Facilities
To avoid electromagnetic interference and/or compatibility conflicts, turn off your radio
In any facility where posted notices instruct you to do so. Hospitals or health care
facilities may be using equipment that is sensitive to external RF energy.
Vehicles
To avoid possible interaction between the radio transmitter and any vehicle electronic
control modules, for example, ABS, engine, or transmission controls, the radio should be
installed only by an experienced installer and that the following precautions be used when
installing the radio:
1. Refer to the manufacturer's instructions or other technical bulletins for
recommendations on radio installation.
2. Before installing the radio, determine the location of the electronic control
modules and their harnesses in the vehicle.
3. Route all radio wiring, including the antenna transmission line, as far away as
possible from the electronic control units and associated wiring.
Driver Safety
Check the laws and regulations on the use of radios in the area where you drive. Always
obey them.
When using your radio while driving, please:
•
Give full attention to driving and to the road.
•
Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call if driving conditions so
require.
Nearly every electronic device is susceptible to electromagnetic
interference (EMI) if inadequately shielded, designed, or otherwise
configured for electromagnetic compatibility. It may be necessary to
conduct compatibility testing to determine if any electronic equipment
used in or around vehicles or near fixed site antenna is sensitive to
external RF energy or if any procedures need to be followed to
eliminate or mitigate the potential for interaction between the radio
transmitter and the equipment or device.
