							1FCC Licensing Information
FCC    
FCC Licensing InformationXSeries professional two-way radios operate on radio frequencies that are 
regulated by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). In order to transmit 
on these frequencies, you are required to have a license issued by the FCC.
Application is made on FCC Form 601 and Schedules D, E and G. 
To obtain these FCC forms please request document 000601
 which includes all 
forms and instructions. If you wish to have the document faxed, mailed or have 
questions, please use the following contact information.
 
Before filling out your application, you must decide which frequency(ies) you can 
operate on. See the Frequency and Code Charts on page 25.

							FCC Licensing Information2FCCChanges or modifications not expressly approved by Motorola may void the user’s 
authority granted by the FCC to operate this radio and should not be made. To 
comply with FCC 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 FCC equipment authorization for this radio could violate FCC 
rules. 
Note:  Use of this radio outside the country where it was intended to be distributed 
is subject to government regulations and may be prohibited.

							Safety and General Informationi
Safety and General InformationImportant Information on Safe and Efficient Operation
Read This Information Before Using Your Radio
The information provided in this document supersedes the general safety 
information contained in user guides published prior to July 2000. For information 
regarding radio use in a hazardous atmosphere please refer to the Factory Mutual 
(FM) Approval Manual Supplement or Instruction Card, which is included with radio 
models that offer this capability.
RF Operational Characteristics
Your radio contains a transmitter and a receiver. When it is ON, it receives and 
transmits radio frequency (RF) energy. The XTN Series VHF radios operate in the 
frequency range of 151-158 MHz, the XTN Series UHF radios operate in the 
frequency range of 461-469 MHz. When you communicate with  XU1100 or XV1100 
radios the output power level is 1.0 watt, with other XTN Series radios, the output 
power level is 2.0 watts 
Exposure to Radio Frequency Energy
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:
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 Edition6881038B80.book  Page i  Wednesday, September 26, 2001  4:16 PM 
						

							Safety and General Informationii
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 Electromagnetic Fields in the Frequency Range from 3 kHz to 300 
GHz, 1999
Australian Communications Authority Radiocommunications (Electromagnetic 
Radiation - Human Exposure) 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:
Portable Radio Operation and EME Exposure
Antenna Care
Use only the supplied or an approved replacement antenna. Unauthorized 
antennas, modifications, or attachments could damage the radio and may violate 
FCC regulations.
DO NOT hold the antenna when the radio is “IN USE.” Holding the antenna 
affects the effective range.
Two-Way Radio Operation
When using your radio as a traditional two-way radio, hold the radio in a vertical 
position with the microphone two to three inches (5. 0 to 7.5 cm) away from the lips.6881038B80.book  Page ii  Wednesday, September 26, 2001  4:16 PM 
						

							Safety and General Informationiii
Body-Worn Operation
To maintain compliance with FCC/Health Canada RF exposure guidelines, if you 
wear a radio on your body when transmitting, always place the radio in a Motorola 
supplied or 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 body-worn accessory, ensure the radio 
and its antenna is at least one inch (2.5 cm) from your body when transmitting.
Data Operation
When using any data feature of a device, with or without an accessory cable, 
position the device and its antenna at least one inch (2.5 cm) from the body.
Approved Accessories
For a list of approved Motorola accessories refer to the Two-Way Radio section of 
www.motorola.com/store.
Electromagnetic Interference/Compatibility
Note:  Nearly every electronic device is susceptible to electromagnetic interference 
(EMI) if inadequately shielded, designed or otherwise configured for 
electromagnetic compatibility.
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.
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.6881038B80.book  Page iii  Wednesday, September 26, 2001  4:16 PM 
						

							Safety and General Informationiv
Medical Devices
Pacemakers
The Advanced Medical Technology Association recommends that a minimum 
separation of 6 inches (15 centimeters) be maintained between a handheld wireless 
radio and a pacemaker. These recommendations are consistent with the 
independent research by, and recommendations of the U.S. Food and Drug 
Administration.
Persons with pacemakers should:
ALWAYS keep the radio more than six 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 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.6881038B80.book  Page iv  Wednesday, September 26, 2001  4:16 PM
