RF Exposure Compliance and Control Guidelines and Operating Instructions To control your exposure and ensure compliance with the occupational/controlled environment exposure limits always adhere to the following procedures. Guidelines:
Do not remove the RF Exposure Label from the device. User awareness instructions should accompany device when transferred to other users. Do not use this device if the operational requirements described herein are not met. Operating Instructions:
Transmit no more than the rated duty factor of 50% of the time. To transmit (talk), push the Push-To-Talk (PTT) button. To receive calls, release the PTT button. Transmitting 50% of the time, orless, is important because this radio generates measurable RF energy exposure only when transmitting (in terms of measuring for standards compliance). Hold the radio in a vertical position in front of face with the microphone (and the other parts of the radio, including the antenna) at least one inch (2.5 cm) away from the nose. Keeping the radio at the proper distance is important because RF exposures decrease with distance from the antenna. Antenna should be kept away from eyes. When worn on the body, always place the radio in a Xiamen Puxing Electronics Science&
Technology Co., Ltd approved clip, holder, holster, case, or body harness for this product. Using approved body-worn accessories is important because the use of Xiamen Puxing Electronics Science&Technology Co., Ltd or other manufacturers non-approved accessories may result in exposure levels, which exceed the FCCs occupational/controlled environment RF exposure limits. If you are not using a body-worn accessory and are not using the radio in the intended use position in front of the face, then ensure the antenna and the radio are kept at least 2.5 cm (one inch) from the body when transmitting. Keeping the radio at the proper distance is important because RF exposures decrease with increasing distance from the antenna. Use only Xiamen Puxing Electronics Science&Technology Co., Ltd approved supplied or replacement antennas, batteries, and accessories. Use of non-manufacturer-nameapproved antennas, batteries, and accessories may exceed the FCC RF exposure guidelines.
