FCC RF Exposure Compliance Requirements for Occupational Use Only:
The FTA-750/FTA-550/FTA-450 have been tested and comply with the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) RF exposure limits for Occupational Use/Controlled Exposure Environment. In addition, both radios comply with the following Standards and Guidelines:
FCC 96-326, Guidelines for Evaluating the Environmental Effects of Radio-Frequency Radiation. FCC OET Bulletin 65 Edition 97-01 (1997) Supplement C, Evaluating Compliance with FCC Guidelines for Hu-
man Exposure to Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Fields. ANSI/IEEE C95.1-1992, IEEE Standard for Safety Levels with Respect to Human Exposure to Radio Frequency ANSI/IEEE C95.3-1992, IEEE Recommended Practice for the Measurement of Potentially Hazardous Electromag-
Electromagnetic Fields, 3 kHz to 300 GHz. netic Fields - RF and Microwave. 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 knowl-
edge to control its RF exposure conditions. When transmitting, hold the radio in a vertical position with its microphone 1 to 2 inches (2.5 to 5 cm) away from your mouth and keep the antenna at least 1 inch (2.5 cm) away from your head and body. The radio must be used with a maximum operating duty cycle not exceeding 50%, in typical Push-to-Talk configurations. 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 RF exposure compliance requirements to be exceeded. The radio is transmitting when the TX icon is displayed on the upper left corner of the screen of the radio. You can cause the radio to transmit by pressing the PTT button.

C I M DATA EXT DC SAD-11 SBH-11 3. Insert the transceiver into the SBH-11; the antenna jack should be at the left side when viewing the cradle from the front. You may insert the cable plug of the SAD-
11 into the EXT DC jack located on the right Important Notes:
The SAD-11 is not designed to power the trans-
ceiver for operation (transmission). Do not leave the charger connected to the trans-
ceiver for continuous periods in excess of 24 hours. Long term overcharging can degrade the Lithium-
ion battery pack and significantly shorten its useful life. If using a charger other than the SAD-11, SBH-11, or if using a battery pack other than the SBR-12LI, follow the appropriate instructions provided with the charger/battery. Contact your Dealer if you have any doubts about the appropriateness of the particu-
lar charger or battery pack you intend to use. 13 FTA-750/FTA-550/FTA-450 OperATing MAnuAlFCC ID: K6650013X20 IC: 511B-50013X20 BeFore you BegIn Alkaline Battery Tray Installation The supplied SBT-12 Battery Tray allows operation of the FTA-750/FTA-550/FTA-450 using six AA size alkaline battery cells. When installing a cell, insert the () end first, then press in the (+) end so the cell snaps into place. Pay attention to the polarity indicated inside the case. SBT-12 Alkaline Battery Tray The SBT-12 must not be used with re-
chargeable cells. The SBT-12 does not con-
tain the thermal and over-current protec-
tion circuits required when utilizing Ni-Cd and Ni-
MH cells. Note: Replace all six cells at the same time in case of low battery. To install the SBT-12, remove the Lithium-ion bat-
tery pack first from the transceiver, turn the open side of the SBT-12 down, then insert it into the bat-
tery compartment. Note: Be sure that the rubber gasket on the SBT-12 is not loose when inserting. Low Battery Indication As your battery discharges during use, the voltage will gradually become lower. When the battery voltage reaches 6.0 Volts, the icon will blink on the LCD display, indicating that the battery pack must be recharged or the alkaline battery cells must be replaced before further use. Avoid recharging Lithium-ion batteries before the Low Battery indicator is observed, as this can degrade the charge capacity of your Lithium-ion battery pack. YAESU recommends that you carry an extra, fully-charged pack with you so you will not lose communications capability due to a depleted Lithium-ion battery. The fully-charged battery lasts for 12 hours on the FTA-750, 13.5 hours on the FTA-550 or ??.? hours on the FTA-450 under the conditions below:

terproof seals around the microphone and speaker enclosure. This requires that you fo-
cus your speech in the direction of the microphones location, so as to ensure sufficient voice input to the radio. Refer to the illustration and observe the location of the internal microphone. If you find it difficult to utilize the FTA-750/FTA-550/FTA-450 conveniently and safely while speaking directly into the microphone, we recommend the use of the SSM-
10A Speaker/Microphone (option), or an aftermarket aviation headset with boom mi-
crophone. 22 FTA-750/FTA-550/FTA-450 OperATing MAnuAlFCC ID: K6650013X20 IC: 511B-50013X20 BasIc operatIon Operation Bands When the FTA-750/FTA-550/FTA-450 are turned on for the first time, it enters the COMM mode and displays the COM band screen. The COMM mode is the basic operation mode of the FTA-750/FTA-550/FTA-450 that allows you to tune through either of the NAV (except for FTA-450) and COM bands using the DIAL knob or the keypad. NAV band (108.000 - 117.975 MHz):
Band for navigation utilizing data signals emitted by VOR (VHF omnidirectional range) stations and ILS
(instrument landing system) of airports. COM band (118.000 - 136.975 MHz):
Band for communication utilizing audio signals. When the FTA-750/FTA-
550 receive a data signal associated with VOR or ILS, the display will auto-
matically switch to the NAV band screen which shows a CDI (course deviation indi-
cator) based on the received signal, and NAV, which indicates that the FTA-750/
FTA-550 are on the NAV band, appears on the dis-

C I M DATA EXT DC SAD-11 Do not attempt to open any of the recharge-
able Lithium-ion packs, as personal injury or damage to the Lithium-ion pack could occur if a cell or cells become accidentally short-
circuited. SBH-11 3. Insert the transceiver into the SBH-11; the antenna jack should be at the left side when viewing the cradle from the front. 11 FTA-750/FTA-550 OperATing MAnuAlFCC ID: K6650013X20 IC: 511B-50013X20YAESU MUSEN CO., LTD. BeFore you BegIn 4. You may insert the cable plug of the SAD-11 into the EXT DC jack located on the right side of the transceiver directly. If the transceiver is inserted correctly, the RED indi-
cator on the SBH-11 will glow. A fully-discharged pack will be charged completely in 4 hours. It takes 5 hours for full charge with the SAD-
11 connected to the transceiver directly. Important Notes:
The SAD-11 is not designed to power the trans-
ceiver for operation (transmission). Do not leave the charger connected to the trans-
ceiver for continuous periods in excess of 24 hours. Long term overcharging can degrade the Lithium-
ion battery pack and significantly shorten its useful life. If using a charger other than the SAD-11, SBH-11, or if using a battery pack other than the SBR-12LI, follow the appropriate instructions provided with the charger/battery. Contact your Dealer if you have any doubts about the appropriateness of the particu-
lar charger or battery pack you intend to use. 12 Alkaline Battery Case Installation The supplied SBT-12 Battery Case allows operation of the FTA-750/FTA-550 using six AA size Alkaline batteries. When installing batteries, insert the () end first, then press in the (+) end so the battery snaps into place. Al-
ways replace all six batteries at the same time, paying attention to the polarity indicated inside the case. The SBT-12 must not be used with re-
chargeable cells. The SBT-12 does not con-
tain the thermal and over-current protec-
tion circuits (provided in the SBR series of Lith-
ium-ion Battery Packs) required when utilizing Ni-
Cd and Ni-MH cells. Low Battery Indication As your battery discharges during use, the voltage will gradually become lower. When the battery volt-
age reaches 6.0 Volts, the icon will blink on the LCD display indicating that the battery pack must be recharged before further use. Avoid recharging Lithium-ion batteries before the Low Battery indicator is observed, as this can degrade the charge capacity of your Lithium-ion battery pack. YAESU recommends that you carry an extra, fully-charged pack with you so you will not lose communications capability due to a depleted Lithium-ion battery.

Under Industry Canada regulations, this radio transmitter may only operate using an antenna of a type and maximum (or lesser) gain approved for the transmitter by Industry Canada. To reduce potential ra-
dio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than that necessary for successful communication. Conformment la rglementation dIndustrie Canada, le prsent metteur radio peut fonctionner avec une antenne dun type et dun gain maximal (ou infrieur) approuv pour lmetteur par Indus-
trie Canada. Dans le but de rduire les risques de brouillage radiolectrique lintention des autres utilisateurs, il faut choisir le type dantenne et son gain de sorte que la puissance isotrope rayonne quivalente (p.i.r.e.) ne dpassepas lintensit ncessaire ltablissement dune communication satis-
faisante. This radio transmitter (identify the device by certification number, or model number if Category II) has been approved by Industry Canada to operate with the antenna types listed below with the maximum permissible gain and required antenna impedance for each antenna type indicated. Antenna types not included in this list, having a gain greater than the maximum gain indicated for that type, are strictly prohibited for use with this device. Le prsent metteur radio (identifier le dispositif par son numro de certification ou son numro de modle sil fait partie du matriel de catgorie I) a t approuv par Industrie Canada pour fonctionner avec les types dantenne numrs ci-dessous et ayant un gain admissible maximal et limpdance requise pour chaque type dantenne. Les types dantenne non inclus dans cette liste, ou dont le gain est suprieur au gain maximal indiqu, sont strictement interdits pour lexploitation de lmetteur. Part 15.21: Changes or modifications to this device not expressly approved by YAESU MUSEN could void the users authorization to operate this device.
