INTRODUCTION
We welcome you to the Family Radio Service (FRS) 2-way “transceiver”
(meaning “transmitter and receiver”) radio, designed for family and friends
to keep in touch without the need for a license, or radio knowledge. It
provides safety and convenience almost anywhere, indoors or outdoors.
The radio operates in Family Radio Service (FRS) designated frequencies.
The FCC has established the license free, short range two way radio
service for family and individual recreational use - anywhere in the United
States & other areas listed by the FCC.
The optimal range for this 2-way radio is approximately 2 miles in open
areas, less in areas with buildings, dense foliage, and mountains.
BEFORE YOU CAN TALK
Before you operate the radio, read this instruction manual carefully to
know how to operate the radio.
SAFETY INFORMATION
Your wireless hand-held portable transceiver contains a low power
transmitter. When the Push-to-Talk (PTT) button is pushed, it sends out
radio frequency (RF) signals. The device is authorized to operate at a duty
factor not to exceed 50%. In August 1996, the Federal Communications
Commissions (FCC) adopted RF exposure guidelines with safety levels for
hand-held wireless devices.
IMPORTANT : To maintain compliance with the FCC’s RF exposure
guidelines hold the transmitter and antenna at least 1 inch (2.5 centimeters)
from your face and speak in a normal voice, with the antenna pointed up
and away from the face. If you wear the handset on your body, use only the
Audiovox supplied belt clip for this product and ensure that the antenna is
at least 1 inch (2.5 centimeters) from your body when transmitting.
Use only the supplied antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modifications,
or attachments could damage the transmitter and may violate FCC
regulations.
WARNING : Adjustment to this unit or replacement of any transmitter
component (crystal, semiconductor, etc.) to this unit that could result in a
violation of the rules.
NOTE : This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the
limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses
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 in 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 difference from that to
which the receiver is needed.
