Safety and General Information
Important Information on Safe and Efficient Operation
Read This Information Before Using Your Radio
The information provided in this document supersedes the
general safety information contained in user guides
published prior to July 2000.
Transmit and Receive Procedure
Your two-way radio contains a transmitter and a receiver.
To control your exposure and ensure compliance with the
general population/uncontrolled environment exposure
limits, always adhere to the following procedure:
• Transmit no more than 50% of the time.
• To transmit (talk), press the Push to Talk (PTT) button.
• To receive calls, release the PTT button.
Transmitting 50% of the time, or less, is important because
the radio generates measurable RF energy exposure only
when transmitting (in terms of measuring standards
compliance).

Your Motorola radio is designed to comply with the
following national and international standards and
guidelines regarding exposure of human beings to radio
frequency electromagnetic energy:
• United States Federal Communications Commission, Code
of Federal Regulations; 47 CFR part 2 sub-part J
