NORTH AMERICAN AND CANADIAN MARKETS
The following regulatory statements apply to users in the North American and/or Canadian
markets.
SRG3900 RADIOS
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance
could void the user‟s authority to operate the equipment (FCC rule part 15.21).
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. 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.
(FCC Rule Part 15.19(a)(3)).
NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A
digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a
commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency
energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause
harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential
area is likely to cause harmful interference in which case the user will be required to correct
the interference at his own expense (FCC Rule Part 15.105).
To ensure that RF exposure to the General Public is minimised and the level maintained
below the accepted guidelines, all antenna installations should be installed with reference to
SPR-DOC-0360 Sepura‟s “Vehicle Antenna Installation Guide”
This Class A digital apparatus complies with Canadian ICES-003.

To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be
so chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than that
permitted for successful communication
This radio is intended for use in occupational/controlled applications where users have been
made aware of the potential for exposure and can exercise control over their exposure. This
radio device is NOT authorized for general population, consumer or similar use.
STP80XX/STP81XX/STP82XX RADIOS
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance

For STP8X radios the SIM card or Micro SD card must not be removed or fitted while
in a hazardous environment because this would require removal or fitting of the
battery in a hazardous environment which would compromise the safety ratings.
In STP8000, STP8100 and STP8200 radios the SIM Card holder/Micro SD card cover
should be left open while in storage and latched closed under normal use.
The STP9200 and STP8200 radios do not support a Micro SD card. The connections
and cover for the card are not present on the radios

BATTERIES

STP9000 AND STP8000 SERIES BATTERIES
Fitting and Removing the Battery
Before fitting a battery please ensure that the SIM Card holder/Micro SD card cover is latched
shut. To fit, unpack the battery and slot it into the rear of the radio. Push the battery down until
the catch clips into the bottom of the case. The battery is fully secure when this catch has
clipped into position. To remove, push the catch upward towards the top of the radio. The
battery pack unclips and can then be removed.
Battery Charging
New battery packs must be fully charged before they are used. The battery should only be
charged using Sepura plc approved battery chargers. Failure to use an approved battery
charger may invalidate the warranty of the battery and the radio.
A range of battery chargers is available that allow the battery to be charged while fitted to, or
removed from, the radio (depending upon the charger model selected). When the battery is
fitted to the radio, the battery can be charged via the facility connector located at the base of
the radio. If the battery is charged with the radio switched on, the time remaining to charge
the battery to its full capacity is shown on the radio‟s display.
When charging, the colour of the tri-colour LED on the radio indicates the progress of battery
charging: flashing amber shows waiting to charge, amber shows charging in progress, green
shows charging complete and red shows charging failure. A fully discharged battery may not
provide enough power to support the display during the initial phases of charging. However,
when sufficient power is available, the display will operate.
Safety Precautions
Many professional and consumer products from cycle lamps to mobile phones and laptop
computers now use rechargeable lithium polymer cells because of their small size and high
energy density. When charged and used correctly these are reliable and safe. There are
some simple precautions that should be observed when charging and using Lithium polymer
packs. The precautions below apply to most/all Lithium polymer battery packs and chargers.
1. Properly designed Lithium polymer batteries and chargers contain effective protection
circuitry to safeguard the pack during charging and use, but in some very rare
circumstances of internal cell failure during charging, the protection circuits may be
