RF Radiation Information
This product must be restricted to operations in an Occupational/Controlled RF exposure Environments.
The product must be only used by users who are fully aware of the hazards of the exposure and who are
able to exercise control over their RF exposure to qualify for the higher exposure limits.
RF Radiation Profile
Radio Frequency (RF) is a frequency of electromagnetic radiation in the range at which radio signals are
transmitted. RF technology is widely used in communication, medicine, food processing and other fields.
It may generate radiation during use.
RF Radiation Safety
In order to ensure user health, experts from relevant industries including science, engineering, medicine
and health work with international organizations to develop standards for safe exposure to RF radiation.
These standards consist of:
United States Federal Communications Commission, Code of Federal Regulations; 47CFR part 2
sub-part J;
American National Standards Institute (ANSI)/Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE)
C95. 1-1992;
Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) C95.1-1999;
International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) 1998;
FCC Regulations
Federal Communication Commission (FCC) requires that all radio communication products should meet
the requirements set forth in the above standards before they can be marketed in the U.S, and the
manufacturer shall post a RF label on the product to inform users of operational instructions, so as to
enhance their occupational health against exposure to RF energy.
Operational Instructions and Training Guidelines
To ensure optimal performance and compliance with the occupational/controlled environment RF energy
exposure limits in the above standards and guidelines, users should transmit no more than 50% of the
time and always adhere to the following procedures:
Your radio radiates measurable RF energy only while it is transmitting (during talking), not when it is
receiving (listening) or in standby mode.

2
FCC Statement
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant
to part 15 of FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates and can radiate 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 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 into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is
connected.
● Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help
Operation is subject to the following two conditions: 1. This device may not cause harmful interference,
and 2. This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause
undesired operation.
Note:” Changes or modifications to this unit not expressly approved by the party responsible for
compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.”
Compliance with RF Exposure Standards
Hytera’s 2-way radio complies with the following RF energy exposure standards and guidelines:
•United States Federal Communications Commission, Code of Federal Regulations; 47 CFR §§ 1.1307,
1.1310 and 2.1093
• American National Standards Institute (ANSI) / Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE)
C95. 1-1992
• Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) C95.1-1999 Edition
RF Exposure Compliance and Control Guidelines and Operating
Instructions
To control your exposure and ensure compliance with the occupational/controlled environment exposure
limits always adhere to the following procedures.
Guidelines:
•Do not remove the RF Exposure Label from the device.
• User awareness instructions should accompany device when transferred to other users.

3
• Do not use this device if the operational requirements described herein are not met.
Operating Instructions:
• Transmit no more than the rated duty factor of 50% of the time. To transmit (talk), push the
Push-To-Talk (PTT) button. To receive calls, release the PTT button. Transmitting 50 % of the time,
or less, is important because this radio generates measurable RF energy exposure only when
transmitting (in terms of measuring for standards compliance).
• Hold the radio in a vertical position in front of face with the microphone (and the other parts of the radio,
including the antenna) at least one inch (2.5 cm) away from the nose. Keeping the radio at the proper
distance is important because RF exposures decrease with distance from the antenna. Antenna
should be kept away from eyes.
• When worn on the body, always place the radio in a Hytera’s approved clip, holder, holster, case, or
body harness for this product. Using approved body-worn accessories is important because the use of
Hytera’s or other manufacturer’s non-approved accessories may result in exposure levels, which exceed
the FCC’s occupational/controlled environment RF exposure limits.
•If you are not using a body-worn accessory and are not using the radio in the intended use position in
front of the face, then ensure the antenna and the radio are kept at least 2.5 cm (one inch) from the body
when transmitting. Keeping the radio at the proper distance is important because RF exposures
decrease with increasing distance from the antenna.
• Use only manufacturer’s name approved supplied or replacement antennas, batteries, and accessories.
Use of non-manufacturer-name approved antennas, batteries, and accessories may exceed the FCC RF
exposure guidelines.
•For a list of Hytera’s approved accessories (see the user manual), or (visit the following website which
lists approved accessories: http: add website address), or(The manufacturer should include the
appropriate bracketed item{s} in the manual.)
• For a list of Hytera’s approved accessories (see the user manual), or (visit the following website which
lists approved accessories: www.hytera.cn
IC statement

6. Basic Operations
6.1 Powering On/Off
Rotate the Power On-Off/Volume Control knob clockwise/counter-clockwise until a click is heard to
turn the radio on/off.
6.2 Adjusting the Volume
After turning the radio on, rotate the Power On-Off/Volume Control knob clockwise to increase the
output sound volume, or counter-clockwise to decrease it.
6.3 Adjust Power Level
With this feature, you may switch power levels quickly. Generally, we recommend you to adopt low
power for battery saving. However, if you cannot communicate with radios located at a distant place with
low power, please select high power.
Operation: Press the programmed Adjust Power Level key to switch the Tx power of the current
channel between High and Low.
6.4 Selecting a Zone
A zone is a group of channels exhibiting the same property. You can list such channels into a zone for
convenient management to them. This radio supports 3 zones: Zone 1, Zone 2 and Zone 3, each of
which can contain 16 channels at most.
You may quickly toggle to your wanted zone by pressing the programmed Zone Up or Zone Down key.
When toggling to a zone, you will hear the alert tone for the zone (one alert tone for Zone 1, two alert
tones for Zone 2 and three alert tones for Zone 3).
6.5 Selecting a Channel
After turning the radio on, rotate the Channel Selector knob to select a needed channel. You can also
switch to the designated channel by pressing the programmed Preset Channel key.
If the Channel Notify function is active, you will hear the corresponding channel number when switching
to any channel.
6.6 Switching the Channel Mode
Each channel can be programmed as either analog channel or digital channel via your dealer. If the
