RWARNING RF EXPOSURE! This device emits
Radio Frequency (RF) energy. Extreme caution should be ob-
served when operating this device. If you have any questions
regarding RF exposure and safety standards please refer to
the Federal Communications Commission Office of Engi-
neering and Technology’s report on Evaluating Compliance
with FCC Guidelines for Human Radio frequency Electro-
magnetic Fields (OET Bulletin 65)
RWARNING! NEVER hold the transceiver so that the
antenna is very close to, or touching exposed parts of the
body, especially the face or eyes, while transmitting. The
transceiver will perform best if the microphone is 5 to 10 cm
(2 to 4 inches) away from the lips and the transceiver is verti-
cal.
RWARNING! NEVER operate the transceiver with a
headset or other audio accessories at high volume levels.
Hearing experts advise against continuous high volume op-
eration. If you experience a ringing in your ears, reduce the
volume or discontinue use.
RWARNING! NEVER operate the transceiver while
driving a vehicle. Safe driving requires your full attention—
anything less may result in an accident.
RWARNING! NEVER connect the transceiver to an AC
outlet. This may pose a re hazard or result in an electric shock.
NEVER connect a power supply of more than 16 V DC
through the optional CP-19R
CIGARETTE LIGHTER CABLE
to the
[DC 11V] jack to prevent damaging the transceiver.
NEVER connect the transceiver to a power source using
reverse polarity. This will ruin the transceiver.
NEVER cut the DC power cable between the DC plug and
fuse holder. If an incorrect connection is made after cutting,
the transceiver may be damaged.
NEVER expose the transceiver to rain, snow or any liquids.
The transceiver may be damaged.
NEVER operate or touch the transceiver with wet hands.
This may result in an electric shock or ruin the transceiver.
NEVER attempt to charge alkaline or dry cell batteries. Be
aware that external DC power connections will charge batter-
ies inside the battery case. This will damage not only the bat-
tery case but also the transceiver.
DO NOT push the PTT when not actually desiring to trans-
mit.
