magnetic energy during transmit mode. This radio is designed for and classified as Occupational Use Only, meaning it must be used only during the course of employment by individu-

als aware of the hazards, and the ways to minimize such hazards. This radio is NOT intended for use by the General Population in an uncon-

trolled environment. For compliance with FCC and IC RF Exposure Re-

quirements, the transmitter antenna installation shall comply with the following three conditions:

1. The transmitter antenna gain shall not exceed 0 dBi. 2. IC-FR5300/UR-FR5300:

Transmit only when people are at least the recom-

mended minimum distance of 60 centimeters away from the properly installed antenna. This separa-

tion distance will ensure that there is sufficient dis-

tance from a properly installed externally-mounted antenna to satisfy the RF exposure requirements in the applicable RF exposure compliance stan-

dards. 2. IC-FR6300/UR-FR6300:

Transmit only when people are at least the recom-

mended minimum distance of 50 centimeters away from the properly installed antenna. This separa-

tion distance will ensure that there is sufficient dis-

tance from a properly installed externally-mounted antenna to satisfy the RF exposure requirements in the applicable RF exposure compliance stan-

dards. To ensure that your exposure to RF electromagnetic energy is within the FCC and IC allowable limits for occu-

pational use, always adhere to the fol-

lowing guidelines:

C AU TIO N DO NOT operate the radio without a proper antenna attached, as this may damage the radio and may also cause you to exceed FCC and IC RF exposure limits. A proper antenna is the antenna supplied with this radio by the manufacturer or an antenna specifically authorized by the manufacturer for use with this radio. DO NOT transmit for more than 50% of total radio use time (50% duty cycle). Transmitting more than 50% of the time can cause FCC and IC RF exposure compliance requirements to be exceeded. The radio is transmitting when the TX indicator lights red. You can cause the radio to transmit by pressing the PTT switch. Electromagnetic Interference/Compatibility During transmissions, your Icom radio generates RF energy that can possibly cause interference with other devices or systems. To avoid such interference, turn off the radio in areas where signs are posted to do so. DO NOT operate the transmitter in areas that are sensitive to electromagnetic radiation such as hospitals, aircraft, and blasting sites. iii INFORMATIONS EN MATIRE DE SCURIT A V E R T I S S E M E N T MISE EN GARDE Votre radio Icom produit une nergie lectromagntique de radiofr-
