I. CC R Exposure Compliance Requirements
for Occupational Use Only
The Federal Communications Commission (FCC), with
its action in General Docket 93-62, November 7, 1997,
has adopted a safety standard for human exposure to
Radio Frequency (RF) electromagnetic energy emitted
by FCC regulated equipment. Topa 3 / Legacy subscribes
to the same safety standard for the use of its products.
Proper operation of this radio will result in user
exposure far below the Occupational Safety and Health
Act (OSHA) and Federal Communications Commission
limits.
CAUTION - 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.
•This radio is NOT approved for use by the general
population in an uncontrolled environment. This radio
is restricted to occupational use, work related operations
only where radio operator must have the knowledge to
control the users exposure conditions for satisfying the
higher exposure limit allowed for occupational use.
•When transmitting, hold the radio in a vertical position
with its microphone 2 inches (5 cm) away from your
mouth.
•This device has been approved for use, at a maximum
duty factor of 50%, using the specific belt clip and
leather belt-holster tested for body-worn SAR compli-
ance. Other belt clips or body-worn accessories may
I. CC R Exposure Compliance Requirements
for Occupational Use Only, continued
not comply and should be avoided. ALWAYS use
Maxon, Legacy and TruTalk authori ed accessories:
antennas, batteries, belt clips, speaker mics, etc.
•The radio is transmitting when the red LED on the
front of the radio is illuminated. You can cause the radio
to transmit by pressing the P-T-T bar on the radio.
•These are required operating configurations for meeting
FCC RF exposure compliance. Failure to observe these
restrictions mean violation.

VI. Getting Started
Charging the NiMH Battery Pack
You will need to charge the battery pack fully before
initial use. For best results from your charging cycle,
follow these tips:
 Ensure the ambient temperature is between 41 and
104° F (5 and 40° C) while charging. Temperatures
outside this range may not fully charge the battery.
 Always switch OFF the transceiver equipped with
a NiMH battery pack before charging. Using the
radio during the charging cycle will hinder correct
charging.
 Do not recharge the battery pack if it is already
fully charged. Doing so may cause the life of the
battery pack to shorten or the battery pack may
be damaged.
 If the battery is stored for 2 months or more, it is a
good idea to complete the charge / discharge cycle
two or three times to allow the battery capacity
to return to normal.
Never dispose of the battery in fire - it can explode
causing personal injury.
 Never attempt to disassemble the battery or remove
its case material or charging contacts. Do not short
the battery terminals.
