GENERAL PRECAUTIONS Always use only Midland authorized accessories. Unauthorized accessories have the risk of fire hazard, explosion, personal injury or damage to the radio. CAUTION Changes or modifications to your radio may void its compliance with government laws/rules and make it illegal to use. Avoid using the radio at temperatures below -30C or above 60C. Avoid storing the radio at temperatures below -40C or above 85C. WARNINGS Your Midland Syn-Tech III P25 Portable Radio generates electromagnetic RF energy when it is transmitting. To ensure that you and those around you are not exposed to excessive amounts of that energy (beyond recommended allowable limits for occupational use):
DO NOT operate your radio without a proper antenna. Transmitting without an antenna may damage your radio. DO NOT touch the antenna, or allow the antenna to touch any bystanders, when you are transmitting. DO NOT attempt to service any internal parts yourself. Please ask your dealer for necessary service. This radio should be opened by authorized personnel only. Please read the installation and operating instructions carefully. 680-090-2040 Version 5.0eng ii http://www.midlandradio.com Syn-Tech III P25 Portable Radio OPERATION MANUAL FCC EXPOSURE STATEMENTS Restricted to occupational use to satisfy FCC RF energy exposure limits. The FCC has adopted a safety standard for human exposure to RF energy. Proper operation of this radio under normal conditions results in user exposure to RF energy below the Occupational Safety and Health Act and Federal Communication Commission limits. This radio is NOT approved for use by the general population in an uncontrolled environment. This radio is restricted to occupational use, work related operations only, where the radio operator must have the knowledge to control the users exposure conditions for satisfying the higher exposure limit allowed for occupational use. When transmitting, hold the radio in a vertical position with its microphone 2 inches (5 cm) away from your mouth. The radio is transmitting when the red Transmit/Receive LED on the top of the radio is illuminated. You can cause the radio to transmit by pressing PTT on the side of the radio. DO NOT operate the radio without the proper antenna installed. Do not substitute any antenna for the one supplied or recommended by the manufacturer or radio dealer. By not following the antenna recommendations you may be exposing person(s) to excess radio frequency radiation. You may contact your radio dealer or the manufacturer for further information. DO NOT transmit more than 50% of total radio use time (50% duty cycle). Transmitting for more than 50% of the time can cause FCC RF exposure compliance requirements to be exceeded. This radio is transmitting whenever the Transmit/Receive LED is red. Pressing the PTT switch on the side of the radio normally causes the radio to transmit. DO NOT allow the antenna to touch any part of your body while transmitting. DO NOT transmit while the radio is attached to your belt. KEEP the radio and antenna at least as far from bystanders as from yourself. The preceding information is provided to make you aware of RF exposure and how to ensure that this radio is operated within FCC RF exposure limits.

The radio is capable of distinguishing between analog and digital signals, and the channel may be configured to receive both signal types with no user intervention. The radio channel may also be configured to allow users to transmit analog signals, digital signals, or choose the appropriate transmit mode. 4.1.1 Rotate the On/Off Volume Knob clockwise past the detent to turn the radio on. Rotate the knob further clockwise to increase the speaker volume. Rotate the knob counter-clockwise to decrease the speaker volume. Rotate the knob counter-clockwise past the detent to turn the radio off. While the radio is performing power-on self-
tests, it will display the greeting message and the current zone selection. If the channel switch is in the sixteenth position, the radio will power-
on to the last selected channel. In any other position the radio will power-on to the switch-
selected channel. If a power-on password has been set, the radio will prompt for password entry when it is turned on. Use the numeric keypad to enter the correct password then press the left soft key (OK). If the password is entered incorrectly five times, the radio will lock and must be reprogrammed to reset the password.

1 2 | Grant Comments | Output is conducted. This transmitter has been tested for SAR compliance in Push-to-Talk and body-worn operating configurations. Body-worn SAR compliance is limited to the specific belt-clip tested for this device. This device must be restricted to work related operations in an Occupational/Controlled RF exposure Environment and must operate with a duty factor not exceeding 50%. All qualified end-users of this device must have the knowledge to control their exposure conditions and/or duration to comply with Occupational /Controlled SAR limit and requirements. A label, as described in this filing, must be displayed on the device to direct users to specific training information for meeting Occupational Exposure Requirements and users must be provided with the training information. The highest reported SAR values are - Head: 3.53 W/kg; Body-worn: 3.82 W/kg, both tested at 50% duty factor. Class II permissive change: This change adds the emission designators for P25 modulation and corrects an emission designator error. NOTE 1: 11K2F1D, 11K2F2D, 11K2F3E, 16K0F3E, 8K10F1D, 8K10F1E | ||||
