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” lights red. You can
cause the radio to transmit by pressing the “PTT” switch.
• ALWAYS use Icom authorized accessories (antennas, batteries,
belt clips, speaker/mics, etc). Use of unauthorized accessories can
cause the FCC RF exposure compliance requirements to be ex-
ceeded.
• ALWAYS keep the antenna at least 1 cm (0.4 inches) away from
the body when transmitting and only use the Icom belt-clips which
listed in p. 26 when attaching the radio to your belt, etc., to ensure
FCC RF exposure compliance requirements are not exceeded. To
provide the recipients of your transmission the best sound quality,
hold the antenna at least 5 cm (2 inches) from 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
assure that this radio operates within 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 electromagnetic radiation such as hospitals, aircraft,
and blasting sites.
Your Icom radio generates RF electromagnetic
energy during transmit mode.  This radio is de-
signed 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 Popula-
tion” in an uncontrolled environment.
This radio has been tested and complies with the FCC RF expo-
sure limits for “Occupational Use Only.”  In addition, your Icom radio
complies with the following Standards and Guidelines with regard to
RF energy and electromagnetic energy levels and evaluation of
such levels for exposure to humans:
• FCC OET Bulletin 65 Edition 97-01 Supplement C, Evaluating
Compliance with FCC Guidelines for Human Exposure to Radio
Frequency Electromagnetic Fields.
• American National Standards Institute (C95.1 – 1992), IEEE Stan-
dard for Safety Levels with Respect to Human Exposure to Radio
Frequency Electromagnetic Fields, 3 kHz to 300 GHz.
• American National Standards Institute (C95.3 – 1992), IEEE Rec-
ommended Practice for the Measurement of Potentially Hazardous
Electromagnetic Fields – RF and Microwave.
To ensure that your exposure to RF electromag-
netic 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
