This TWIN Digital Radio System meets government requirements for exposure to radio waves. Guidelines are based on standards developed by independent scientific bodies Evaluate the organization through regular and thorough scientific research. These standards include substantial safety margins designed to keep everyone safe Regardless of age or health. FCC Radio Frequency Exposure Information and Statement:
The SAR in the United States (FCC) is below the limit of 1g 1.6 W/kg. Device Type: Smart Handheld Terminal (FCC ID:
XYFTWINXLITE) has also been tested against this SAR limit. During product certification, when properly worn on the body, the maximum SAR value reported in accordance with this standard is less than 1.6 W/kg. The device has been tested for typical body-
worn operation and has a back The TWIN Digital Radio System is kept 0 cm from the body. To maintain compliance with FCC RF exposure requirements , use accessories that maintain a 0 cm distance between the user's body and the back of the device. The use of belt clips, holsters and similar accessories should not include metal parts in their assembly. Use of accessories that do not meet these requirements may not meet FCC RF exposure requirements and should be avoided. FCC SAR Values(MAX):
Body: 1.448 W/Kg Where to Fly We recommend that you fly at a recognized model airplane flying field. You can find model clubs and fields by asking your nearest hobby dealer. Always pay particular attention to the flying fields rules, as well as the presence and location of spectators, the wind direction, and any obstacles on the field. Be very careful flying in areas near power lines, tall buildings, or communication facilities as there may be radio interference in their vicinity. At the flying field To prevent possible damage to your radio gear, turn the power switches on and off in the proper sequence:
1. Pull throttle stick to idle position, or otherwise disarm your motor/engine. 2. Turn on the transmitter power and allow your transmitter to reach its home screen. 3. Confirm the proper model memory has been selected. 4. Turn on your receiver power. 5. Test all controls. If a servo operates abnormally, dont attempt to fly until you determine the cause of the problem. 6. Start your engine. 7. Complete a full range check. 8. After flying, bring the throttle stick to idle position, engage any kill switches or otherwise disarm your motor/engine. If you do not turn on your system on and off in this order, you may damage your servos or control surfaces, flood your engine, or in the case of electric-powered or gasoline-powered models, the engine may unexpectedly turn on and cause a severe injury. Make sure your transmitter cant tip it over. If it is knocked over, the throttle stick may be accidentally moved, causing the engine to speed up. Also, damage to your transmitter may occur. In order to maintain complete control of your aircraft it is important that it remains visible at all times. Flying behind large objects such as buildings, grain bins, etc. must be avoided. Doing so may interrupt the radio frequency link to the model, resulting in loss of control. This device complies withPart 15 of the FCCRules. Operationissubject tothe following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesiredoperation. Caution: The user iscautionedthat changes or modifications not expresslyapprovedby the partyresponsible for compliance couldvoidthe user's authoritytooperate the equipment. Note: This equipment has beentestedand foundtocomply withthe limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCCRules. These limits are designedtoprovide reasonable protectionagainst harmful interference ina residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and canradiate radiofrequency energy and, if not installedand usedinaccordance withthe instructions, may cause harmful interference toradiocommunications. However, there isno guarantee that interference will not occur ina particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference toradioor televisionreception, whichcanbe determinedby turning the equipment off and on, the user isencouragedtotryto correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
Reorient or relocate the receivingantenna. Increase the separationbetweenthe equipment and receiver. Connect the equipment intoanoutlet on a circuit different fromthat towhichthe receiver isconnected. Consult the dealer or anexperiencedradio/TVtechnicianfor help. Do not grasp the transmitter's antenna during flight. Doing so may degrade the quality of the radio frequency transmission and could result in loss of control. CE As with all radio frequency transmissions, the strongest area of signal transmission is from the sides of the transmitter's antenna. As such, the antenna should not be pointed directly at the model. If your flying style creates this situation, easily move the antenna to correct this situation. Dont fly in the rain! Water or moisture may enter the transmitter through the antenna or stick openings and cause erratic operation or loss of control. If you must fly in wet weather during a contest, be sure to cover your transmitter with a plastic bag or waterproof barrier. Never fly if lightning is expected.
