SAFETY TRAINING INFORMATION
 •
DO NOT operate the radio without a proper antenna attached, as 
this may damaged the radio and may also cause you to exceed FCC 
RF exposure limits. A proper antenna is the antenna supplied with 
this radio by the manufacturer or antenna specifically authorized by 
the manufacturer for use with this radio.
 •
DO NOT transmit for more than 50% of total radio use time (“50%
duty cycle”). “50% duty cycle” is also applicable to VOX/PTT mode.
Transmitting more than 50% of the time can cause FCC RF expo-
sure compliance requirements to be exceeded. The radio is trans-
mitting when the “LED indicator” lights red. You can cause the radio 
to transmit by pressing the “PTT” switch or VOX function.
 •
ALWAYS keep the antenna at least 2.5 cm (1 inch) away from the
body when transmitting and only use the Icom belt-clip which is 
listed on page 33 when attaching the radio to your belt, etc., to en-
sure FCC RF exposure compliance requirements are not exceeded. 
To provide the recipients of your transmission the best sound qual-
ity, hold the antenna at least 5 cm (2 inches) from your mouth, and
slightly off to one side.
The information listed above provides the user with the information 
needed to make him or her aware of RF exposure, and what to do to as-
sure that this radio operates with the FCC RF exposure limits of this radio.
Electromagnetic Interference/Compatibility
During transmissions, your Icom radio generates RF energy that can 
possibly cause interference with other devices or systems. To avoid such 
interference, turn off the radio in areas where signs are posted to do so. 
DO NOT operate the transmitter in areas that are sensitive to electro-
magnetic radiation such as hospitals, aircraft, and blasting sites.
Occupational/Controlled Use
The radio transmitter is used in situations in which persons are exposed as 
consequence of their employment provided those persons are fully aware 
of the potential for exposure and can exercise control over their exposure.
