Safety Information
The Federal Communications Commission (FCC), with its action in
General Docket 79-144, March 13, 1985, has adopted a safety
standard for human exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) electromag-
netic energy emitted by FCC regulated equipment. Maxon sub-
scribes to the same safety standard for the use of its products. Proper
operation of this radio will result in user exposure far below the
Occupational Safety and Health Act and Federal Communications
Commission limits.
WARNING - DO NOT hold the radio in such a manner that the
antenna is next to, or touching, exposed parts of the
body, especially the face or eyes, while transmitting.
WARNING - DO NOT allow children to operate transmitter -
equipped radio equipment.
CAUTION - DO NOT operate the radio near unshielded electrical
blasting caps or in an explosive atmosphere unless it
is a type especially designed and qualified for such use.
CAUTION - DO NOT press and hold the transmit switch (P-T-T)
when not actually wishing to transmit.
NOTE: This radio operates in FCC regulated frequency bands. All
radios must be licensed by the FCC before use. Because this radio
contains a transmitter, Federal law prohibits unauthorized use or
adjustments of this radio.
