SAFETY TRAINING INFORMATION
Your Icom radio generates RF
electromagnetic energy during transmit
mode. This radio is designed for and
classified as “Occupational Use Only,”
meaning it must be used only during the
course of employment by individuals aware
of the hazards, and the ways to minimize
such hazards. This radio is NOT intended
for use by the “General Population” in an
uncontrolled environment.
• For compliance with FCC and Industry Canada RF
Exposure Requirements, the transmitter antenna
installation shall comply with the following two conditions:
1. The transmitter antenna gain shall not exceed 0 dBi.
2. The antenna is required to be located outside of a
2. The antenna is required to be located outside of a
vehicle and kept at a distance of 53 centimeters or
more between the transmitting antenna of this device
and any persons during operation. For a small vehicle,
the antenna as worst case, the antenna shall be
located on the roof top at any place on the centre line
along the vehicle in order to achieve 53 centimeters
separation distance. In order to ensure this distance is
met, the installation of the antenna must be mounted
at least 53 centimeters away from the nearest edge
of the vehicle in order to protect against exposure to
bystanders.
To ensure that your exposure to RF
electromagnetic energy is within the FCC
allowable limits for occupational use,
always adhere to the following guidelines:
•
DO NOT operate the radio without a proper antenna
attached, as this may damage 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 an 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”). Transmitting more than 50% of the time
can cause FCC RF exposure compliance requirements
to be exceeded. The radio is transmitting when the “TX”
indicator appears. You can cause the radio to transmit by
pressing the PTT switch.
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 electromagnetic
radiation such as hospitals, aircraft, and blasting sites.
