recommended minimum lateral distance away, as shown in Table
1, from the body of a vehicle with a properly installed antenna. This
separation distance will ensure that there is sufficient distance from
a properly installed (according to installation instructions) externally-
mounted antenna to satisfy the RF exposure requirements .
Table 1 below lists the recommended lateral distance for
people in an uncontrolled environment from the body of a
vehicle with an approved, properly installed transmitting
antenna (i.e., monopoles over a ground plane, or dipoles) at
several different ranges of rated radio power for mobile radios
installed in a vehicle.
NOTE
Mobile Radio Rated Power Minimum Lateral Distance from
Vehicle Body
Less than 7 watts 20 centimeters
7 to 15 watts 30 centimeters
16 to 39 watts 60 centimeters
40 to 110 watts 90 centimeters
When a mobile radio is used in conjunction with another co-located
transmitter such as a Vehicular Repeater, it is the vehicle operator's
responsibility to take appropriate steps to keep bystanders at the
required separation distance from the vehicle to ensure compliance with
the RF energy exposure limits for the general population.
If you are not sure of the rated power of your radio,contact
your SMP representative or dealer and supply the radio model
number found on the radio model label. If you cannot determine
the rated power out, then assure 90 centimeters separation
from the body of the vehicle.

Initial Installation
REPLACING FUSES
If the fuse blows, determine the cause, then correct the problem.
After the problem is resolved, replace the fuse. If newly installed
fuses continue to blow, disconnect the power cable and contact your
autho-rized dealer or an authorized servi-cecenter for
assistance.
Only use fuses of the specified type and rating, otherwise the
transceiver could be damaged.
After connecting the transceiver to the power supply, the supply voltage
can be displayed on LCD by pressing the key together with the
key.
The display immediately changes as the voltage supply changes, It
also displays voltage during transmission.
The transceiver will return to its normal operation when the power is
switched ON or repeat above operation.
Before operating, install an efcient, well-tuned antenna. The success
of your installation will depend largely on the type of antenna and its
correct installation. The transceiver can give excellent results if the
antenna system and its installation are given careful attention.
Use a 50Ω impedance antenna and low-loss coaxial feed-line that
has a characteristic impedance of 50 Ω, to match the transceiver input
impedance. Coupling the antenna to the transceiver via feed-lines having
an impedance other than 50Ω reduces the efficiency of the antenna
system and can cause interference to nearby broadcast television
receivers, radio receivers, and other electronic equipment.
