i SAFETY AND GENERAL INFORMATION IMPORTANT INFORMATION ON SAFE AND EFFICIENT OPERATION READ THIS INFORMATION BEFORE USING YOUR MOTOROLA TWO-WAY RADIO The information provided in this document supersedes the general safety information contained in user guides published prior to October 2000. For information regarding radio use in a hazardous atmosphere refer to the Factory Mutual (FM) manual supplement included with radio models that offer this capability and/or the intrinsic safety radio information section of this user manual. RADIO FREQUENCY (RF) OPERATIONAL CHARACTERISTICS To transmit (talk) you must push the Push-To-Talk button; to receive (listen) you must release the Push-To-Talk button. When the radio is transmitting, it generates radio frequency (RF) energy; when it is receiving, or when it is off, it does not generate RF energy. PORTABLE RADIO OPERATION AND EME EXPOSURE Your Motorola radio is designed to comply with the following national and international standards and guidelines regarding exposure of human beings to radio frequency electromagnetic energy (EME): ¥ United States Federal Communications Commission, Code of Federal Regulations; 47 CFR part 2 sub-part J ¥ American National Standards Institute (ANSI) / Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) C95. 1-1992 ¥ Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) C95.1-1999 Edition ¥ National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP) of the United States, Report 86, 1986 ¥ International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) 1998 ¥ Ministry of Health (Canada) Safety Code 6. Limits of Human Exposure to Radio Frequency Electromag- netic Fields in the Frequency Range from 3 kHz to 300 GHz, 1999 ¥ Australian Communications Authority Radiocommunications (Electromagnetic Radiation - Human Expo- sure) Standard 1999 (applicable to wireless phones only) To assure optimal radio performance and make sure human exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic energy is within the guidelines set forth in the above standards, always adhere to the following procedures: Two-way Radio Operation When using your radio, hold the radio in a vertical position with the microphone one to two inches (2.5 to 5 centimeters) away from the lips. Body-worn Operation To maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines, if you wear a radio on your body when transmitting, always place the radio in a Motorola approved clip, holder, holster, case, or body harness for this product . Use of non-Motorola-approved accessories may exceed FCC RF exposure guidelines. If you do not use a Motorola approved body-worn accessory and are not using the radio in the intended use positions along side of the head in the phone mode or in front of the face in the two-way radio mode, then ensure the antenna and radio is kept the following minimum distances from the body when transmitting: ¥ Phone or Two-way radio mode: one inch (2.5 centimeters) ¥ Data operation using any data feature with or without an accessory cable: one inch (2.5 centimeters) MAN WITH RADIO

iiSafety and General Information Antenna Care Use only the supplied or an approved replacement antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modiÞcations, or attachments could damage the radio and may violate FCC regulations. DO NOT hold the antenna when the radio is ÒIN USEÓ. Holding the antenna affects call quality and may cause the radio to operate at a higher power level than needed. Approved Accessories For a list of approved Motorola accessories look in the appendix or accessory section of your radioÕs User Guide. ELECTROMAGNETIC INTERFERENCE/COMPATIBILITY Note: Nearly every electronic device is susceptible to electromagnetic interference (EMI) if inadequately shielded, designed or otherwise conÞgured for electromagnetic compatibility. Facilities To avoid electromagnetic interference and/or compatibility conßicts, 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. Aircraft When instructed to do so, turn off your radio when on board an aircraft. Any use of a radio must be in accordance with applicable regulations per airline crew instructions. Medical Devices ¥ Pacemakers The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that a minimum separation of 6 inches (15 centimeters) be maintained between a handheld wireless radio and a pacemaker.These recommenda- tions are consistent with those of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. Persons with pacemakers should: ¥ ALWAYS keep the radio more than 6 inches (15 centimeters) from their pacemaker when the radio is turned ON. ¥ Not carry the radio in the breast pocket. ¥ Use the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for interference. ¥ Turn the radio OFF immediately if you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place. ¥ Hearing Aids Some digital wireless radios may interfere with some hearing aids. In the event of such interference, you may want to consult your hearing aid manufacturer to discuss alternatives. ¥ Other Medical Devices If you use any other personal medical device, consult the manufacturer of your device to determine if it is adequately shielded from RF energy. Your physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this information.

Safety and General Informationiii SAFETY AND GENERAL Use While Driving 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. ¥ Use hands-free operation, if available. ¥ Pull off the road and park before making or answering a call if driving conditions so require. OPERATIONAL WARNINGS FOR VEHICLES WITH AN AIR BAG Do not place a portable radio in the area over an air bag or in the air bag deployment area. Air bags inßate with great force. If a portable radio is placed in the air bag deployment area and the air bag inßates, the radio may be propelled with great force and cause serious injury to occupants of the vehicle. POTENTIALLY EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERES Turn off your radio prior to entering any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere, unless it is a radio type especially qualiÞed for use in such areas as Intrinsically Safe (for example, Factory Mutual, CSA, UL, or CENELEC). Do not remove, install, or charge batteries in such areas. Sparks in a potentially explosive atmosphere can cause an explosion or Þre resulting in bodily injury or even death. Note: The areas with potentially explosive atmospheres referred to above include fueling areas such as below decks on boats, fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities, areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust or metal powders, and any other area where you would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle engine. Areas with potentially explosive atmospheres are often but not always posted. BLASTING CAPS AND AREAS To avoid possible interference with blasting operations, turn off your radio when you are near electrical blasting caps, in a blasting area, or in areas posted: Turn off two-way radio.Ó Obey all signs and instructions. OPERATIONAL CAUTIONS ANTENNAS Do not use any portable radio that has a damaged antenna. If a damaged antenna comes into contact with your skin, a minor burn can result. BATTERIES All batteries can cause property damage and/or bodily injury such as burns if a conductive material such as jewelry, keys, or beaded chains touch exposed terminals. The conductive material may complete an electrical circuit (short circuit) and become quite hot. Exercise care in handling any charged battery, particularly when placing it inside a pocket, purse, or other container with metal objects. ! W A R N I N G ! ! C a u t i o n
