Information on Safe Operation
Read This Information Before Using Your Oricom Radio.
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 receive calls, release the PTT button.•
To transmit (talk), press the Push to Talk (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).
Exposure to Radio Frequency Energy
Your Oricom two-way radio complies with Australian
Communications Authority Radiocommunications (Electromagnetic
Radiation-Human Exposure) Standard, 2003.
To assure optimal radio performance and make sure human
exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic energy is within the
guidelines set out in the above standards always adhere to the
following procedures.
Radio Operation and EME Exposure
Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments could
damage the radio and violate compliance.
Do NOT hold the antenna when the radio is “IN USE.” Holding the
antenna affects the effective range.
Do not use the radio if the antenna is damaged. If a damaged
antenna makes contact with your skin, a minor burn can result.
If you wear a radio on your body when transmitting, always fit the
radio on the belt clip (supplied). Always ensure the radio and it's
antenna are at least 2.5 cm from your body when transmitting.
