This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is
subject to the condition that this device does not cause harmful
interference.
Your Olympia radio generates RF electromagnetic energy during
transmit mode. This radio is designed for and classified as
“Occupational Use Only”/”Controlled 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 Population” in
an uncontrolled environment.
Important: Your Olympia radio has been tested and complies
with the FCC/IC RF exposure limits for “Occupational Use Only”/
”Controlled Use Only”. In addition, your 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 Supplement C, Edition 01-01, Evaluating
Compliance with FCC Guidelines for Human Exposure to Radio
Frequency Electromagnetic Fields.
• IC RSS-102 Issue 2 Radio Frequency Exposure Compliance of
Radiocommunication Apparatus.
Caution
!
• American National Standards Institute (C95.1 – 2005), IEEE
Standard for Safety Levels with Respect to Human Exposure to
Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Fields, 3 kHz to 300 GHz.
• American National Standards Institute (C95.3 – 2002), IEEE
Recommended Practice for the Measurement of Potentially
Hazardous Electromagnetic Fields – RF and Microwave.
• IEEE Standard 1528-2003.
To ensure that your exposure to RF electromagnetic energy is
within the FCC/IC allowable limits for “Occupational Use Only”/
”Controlled Use Only”, always adhere to the following guidelines:
• DO NOT operate the radio without a proper 50 Ohm antenna
attached, as this may damage the radio and may also cause
you to exceed FCC/IC RF exposure limits. A proper antenna is
the antenna supplied with 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/IC RF exposure compliance requirements to be
exceeded. The radio is transmitting when the “TX indicator”
light is red. You will cause the radio to transmit by pressing the
“PTT” switch.
