NOTICE: This radio is intended for use in occupa-
tional/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 commu-
nications 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 elec-
tromagnetic energy. Other forms include, but are not
limited to, electric power, 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 stan-
dards 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 marketed in North
America are designed, manufactured and tested to
ensure they meet government established RF expo-
sure levels. In addition, manufacturers also recom-
mend 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

FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION
REGULATIONS
REGULATIONS
The FCC rules require manufacturers to comply
with the FCC RF energy exposure limits for portable
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 occupa-
tional requirements. Exposure awareness can be facili-
tated by the use of a product label directing users to
specific user awareness information. Your EFJohnson
2-way radio has a RF exposure product label. Also,
your EFJohnson user manual, or product manual, or
separate safety booklet includes information and oper-
ating instructions required to control your RF exposure
and to satisfy compliance requirements.

COMPLIANCE WITH RF EXPOSURE
STANDARDS
STANDARDS
Your EFJohnson 2-way radio is designed and tested to
comply with a number of national and international
standards and guidelines (listed below) for human
exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic energy.
This radio complies with the IEEE and ICNIRP expo-
sure limits for occupational/controlled RF exposure
environment at operating duty factors of up to 50%
transmitting and is authorized by the FCC for occupa-
tional use only. In terms of measuring RF energy for
compliance with the FCC exposure guidelines, your
radio radiates measurable RF energy only while it is
transmitting (during talking), not when it is receiving
(listening) or in standby mode. Note: The approved
batteries supplied with this radio are rated for a 5-5-90
duty factor (5% talk-5% listen - 90% standby), even
though this radio complies with the FCC occupational
RF exposure limits and may operate at duty factors of
up to 50% talk.
