    SAFETY AND GENERAL INFORMATION
    Read this information before using your radio.
    IMPORTANT INFORMATION ON SAFE AND EFFICIENT OPERATION
    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/radio product contains a transmitter and a receiver. When it is ON, it receives and transmits radio 
    frequency(RF) energy. 
    Exposure To Radio Frequency Energy
    Your Motorola radio/radio product is designed to comply with the  following national and international standards 
    and guidelines regarding exposure of human beings to radio frequency electromagnetic energy:
    lUnited States Federal Communications Commission, Code of Federal Regulations; 47 CFR part 2 sub-part J
    lAmerican National Standards Institute (ANSI) / Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) C95. 
    1-1992
    lInstitute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) C95.1-1999 Edition
    lNational Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP) of the United States, Report 86, 1986
    lInternational Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) 1998
    lNational Radiological Protection Board of the United Kingdom  1995
    lMinistry of Health (Canada) Safety Code 6. Limits of Human Exposure to Radiofrequency Electromagnetic 
    Fields in the Frequency Range from 3 kHz to 300 GHz, 1999
    lAustralian Communications Authority Radiocommunications (Electromagnetic Radiation - Human Exposure) 
    Standard 1999 (applicable to wireless phones only)
    To assure optimal radio/radio product 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:
    ELECTROMAGNETIC INTERFERENCE/COMPATIBILITY
    Facilities
    To avoid electromagnetic interference and/or compatibility conflicts, turn off your radio product 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.
    Medical Devices
    Pacemakers
    The Health Industry Manufacturers Association recommends that a minimum separation of 15 cms be 
    maintained between a handheld wireless radio product and a pacemaker.These recommendations are consistent 
    with the independent research by, and recommendations of, Wireless Technology Research.
    Persons with pacemakers should:
    lALWAYS keep the radio product more than 15 cms from their pacemaker when the radio product is turned ON.
    lnot carry the radio product in the breast pocket.
    luse the ear opposite the pacemaker to minimize the potential for interference.
    lturn the radio product OFF immediately if you have any reason to suspect that interference is taking place.
    Hearing Aids
    Some digital wireless radio products may interfere with some hearing aids. In the event of such interference, you 
    may want to consult your hearing aid manufacturer to discuss alternatives. NOTE
    Nearly every electronic device is susceptible to electromagnetic interference (EMI) if 
    inadequately shielded, designed, or alternately configured for electromagnetic compatibility. 
    						
    							viSAFETY AND GENERAL INFORMATION
    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
    Use While  Driving
    Check the laws and regulations on the use of radio products in the area where you drive.  Always obey them.
    When using your radio product while driving, please:
    lGive full attention to driving and to the road.
    lUse hands-free operation, if available.
    lPull off the road and park before making or answering a call if driving conditions so require.
    OPERATIONAL WARNINGS   
    Vehicles with an air bag
    Potentially explosive atmospheres
    Blasting caps and areas
    WARNING: Do not place a radio product in the area over an air bag or in the air bag 
    deployment area. Air bags inflate with great force. If a radio product is placed in the air bag 
    deployment area and the air bag inflates, the radio product may be propelled with great force 
    and cause serious injury to occupants of vehicle.
    WARNING: Turn off your radio product prior to entering any area with a potentially explosive 
    atmosphere, unless it is a radio product type especially qualified for use in such areas as 
    Intrinsically Safe (for example, Factory Mutual, CSA, or UL Approved).  Do not remove, 
    install, or charge batteries in such areas.  Sparks in a potentially explosive atmosphere can 
    cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death.
    WARNING:  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”. Obey all signs and instructions.
    NOTEThe 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 poten-
    tially explosive atmospheres are often but not always posted.

    							SAFETY AND GENERAL INFORMATIONvii
    MOBILE RADIO OPERATION AND EME EXPOSURE
    To assure optimal radio performance and that human exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic energy is 
    within the guidelines referenced earlier in this document, transmit only when people outside the vehicle are at 
    least the minimum distance away from a properly installed, externally-mounted antenna. Table 1 lists the 
    minimum distance for several different ranges of rated radio power.
    ANTENNA INSTALLATION
    Mobile Antennas
    Recommended mobile antenna installations are limited to metal body vehicles at the center of the roof and center 
    of the trunk deck locations.
    The antenna installation must additionally be in accordance with: 
    1.The requirements of the antenna manufacturer/supplier.
    2.Instructions in the Radio Installation Manual.
    Fixed Site Antennas 
    Mobile radio equipment is sometimes installed at a fixed location and  operated as a control station or as a fixed 
    unit.   In such cases the antenna installation must comply with the following requirements in order to assure 
    optimal performance and make sure human exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic energy is within the 
    guidelines set forth in the above standards:
    lThe antenna must be mounted outside the building
    lMount the antenna on a tower if at all possible
    lIf the antenna is to be mounted on a building then it must be mounted on the roof.
    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 insure that exposure limits are not exceeded.
