FCC WARNING
This equipment generates or uses radio frequency energy. Changes or modifications to this
equipment may cause harmful interference unless the modifications are expressly approved in the
instruction manual. The user could lose the authority to operate this equipment if an unauthorized
change or modification is made.
INFORMATION TO THE DIGITAL DEVICE USER REQUIRED BY THE FCC
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device,
pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection
against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can
generate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions,
may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that the
interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful
interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off
and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following
measures:
·
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
·
Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
·
Connect the equipment to an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is
connected.
·
Consult the dealer for technical assistance.
GOVERNMENT LAW PROHIBITS THE OPERATION OF UNLICENSED RADIO
TRANSMITTERS WITHIN THE TERRITORIES UNDER GOVERNMENT CONTROL.
ILLEGAL OPERATION IS PUNISHABLE BY FINE OR IMPRISONMENT OR BOTH.
REFER SERVICE TO QUALIFIED TECHNICIANS ONLY.
SAFETY: It is important that the operator is aware of, and understands, hazards
common to the operation of any transceiver.
WARNING!
EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERES (GASES, DUST, FUMES, etc.)
Turn OFF your transceiver while taking on fuel or while parked in a gasoline service station. Do
not carry spare fuel containers in the trunk of your vehicle if your transceiver is mounted in the
trunk area.
INJURY FROM RADIO FREQUENCY TRANSMISSIONS
Do not operate your transceiver when somebody is within two to three feet of the antenna, to
avoid the possibility of radio frequency burns or related physical injury.
DYNAMITE BLASTING CAPS
Turn OFF your transceiver when in an area where blasting is in progress, or where "TURN OFF
TWO-WAY RADIO" signs have been posted. Operating the transceiver within 150 meters
(500 feet) of dynamite blasting caps may cause them to explode. If you are carrying blasting
caps in your vehicle, make sure they are enclosed in a metal box with a padded interior. Do not
transmit while the caps are being placed into or are being removed from the container.
Note:
This instruction manual covers only the basic functions of the transceiver. Consult your dealer
for more detailed information.
