3.2.1  RF ENERGY EXPOSURE AWARENESS AND CONTROL INFORMATION, AND 
OPERATIONAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR FCC OCCUPATIONAL USE REQUIREMENTS 
BEFORE USING YOUR MOBILE  2-WAY RADIO, READ THE INFORMATION 
BELOW WHICH CONTAINS IMPORTANT OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS FOR 
SAFE USAGE AND RF ENERGY AWARENESS AND CONTROL 
INFORMATION FOR COMPLIANCE WITH RF ENERGY EXPOSURE LIMITS 
IN APPLICABLE NATIONAL AND INTERNATIONAL STANDARDS. 
NOTICE:   This radio is intended for use in occupational/controlled 
conditions, where users have full knowledge of their exposure 
and can exercise control over their exposure to meet FCC 
limits.  This radio device is NOT authorized for general 
population, consumer, or any other use. 
This 2-way radio uses electromagnetic energy in the radio frequency (RF) spectrum to 
provide communications between two or more users over a distance.  It uses radio frequency 
(RF) energy or radio waves to send and receive calls.  RF energy is one form of 
electromagnetic energy; other forms include, but are not limited to, sunlight and x-rays. RF 
energy, however, should not be confused with these other forms of electromagnetic energy, 
which when used improperly, can cause biological damage.  Very high levels of x-rays, for 
example, can damage tissues and genetic material.  
Experts in science, engineering, medicine, health and industry work with organizations to 
develop standards for exposure to RF energy. These standards provide recommended levels 
of RF exposure for both workers and the general public. These recommended RF exposure 
levels include substantial margins of protection. All 2-way radios are designed, 
manufactured, and tested to ensure they meet government established RF exposure levels. 
In addition, manufacturers also recommend specific operating instructions to users of 2-way 
radios. 
These instructions are important because they inform users about RF energy exposure and 
provide simple procedures on how to control it.  Please refer to the following WEBSITES for 
more information on what RF energy exposure is and how to control your exposure to assure 
compliance with established RF exposure limits.

3.2.2 
FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION REGULATIONS 
The FCC rules require manufacturers to comply with the FCC RF energy exposure limits for 
mobile 2-way radios before they can be marketed in the U.S.  When 2-way radios are used 
as a consequence of employment, the FCC requires users to be fully aware of and able to 
control their exposure to meet occupational requirements.  Exposure awareness can be 
facilitated by the use of a product label directing users to specific user awareness 
information.  Your BK Radio 2-way radio has an RF exposure product label.  Also, your BK 
Radio owner’s and service manuals include information and operating instructions required 
to control your RF exposure and to satisfy compliance requirements.
