CAUTION:ToensurethatyourexposetoRFelectromagnet-
icenergyiswithintheFCCallowablelimitsforoccupational
use,alwaysadheretothefollowingguidelines:
Please read this manual carefully to become familiar with the
features of this transceiver.
Do not transmit the radio without an antenna connected.
This radio is NOT approved for use by the general popula-
tion in an uncontrolled environment. This radio is restricted
to occupational use, work related operations only where the
radio operator must have the knowledge to control its RF ex-
posure conditions.
When transmitting, hold the radio in a vertical position with
its microphone 1 to 2 inches (2.5 to 5 cm) away from your
mouth and keep the antenna at least 1 inch (2.5cm) away
from your head and body.
The radio must be used with a maximum operating duty
cycle not exceeding 50 %, in typical Push-to-Talk (PTT) con-
gurations. 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 re-
quirements to be exceeded.
To keep the Body Worn conguration with the Vertex Stan-
dard CLIP-18 belt-clip, reduce the maximum operating duty
cycle still more.
The radio is transmitting when the red LED on the top of the
radio is illuminated. You can cause the radio to transmit by
pressing the PTT button.
When operate the radio with the Vertex Standard CLIP-18
belt-clip, make the transmission time as short as possible, to
keep the Body Worn conguration.
Always use the FNB-V103LI, FNB-V104LI, FNB-V131LI-
UNI or FNB-V132LI-UNI Lithium-Ion Battery.
Risk of explosion if battery is replaced by an incorrect type.
Dispose of used batteries according to the instructions.
Perform the battery charging where the ambient tempera-
ture range +50 °F to +104 °F (10 °C to +40 °C). Charge out
of this range could cause damage to the battery pack.
Battery Pack shall not be exposed to excessive heat such as
sunshine, re or the like.
Vertex Standard LMR, Inc.
Always use Vertex Standard authorized accessories.
Vertex Standard shall not be liable for any damage or ac-
cidents such as fire, leakage or explosion of batteries, etc.,
caused by the malfunction of non-Vertex Standard accesso-
ries.
This radio generates RF electromagnetic energy during
transmit mode. This radio is designed for and classified as
occupational use only, meaning it must be used only during
the course of employment by individuals aware of hazard-
ous, and the ways to minimize such hazardous. This radio is
not intended for use by the General Population in an uncon-
trolled environment.
Theinformationlistedaboveprovidestheuserwiththeinformation
neededtomakehimorherawareofRFexposure,andwhattodoto
assurethatthisradiooperates withthe FCCRF exposurelimits of
thisradio.
Electromagnetic Interference/Compatibility
During transmissions, this radio generates RF energy that can
possibly cause interference with other devices or systems. To
avoid such interference, turn off the radio in areas where signs
are posted to do so.
Do not operate the transmitter in areas that are sensitive to elec-
tromagnetic radiation such as hospitals, health care facilities,
aircraft, and blasting sites.
FCC LICENSE INFORMATION
This radio operates on communications frequencies which are
subject to FCC (Federal Communications Commission) Rules
and Regulations. FCC Rules require that all operators using Pri-
vate Land Mobile radio frequencies obtain a radio license before
operating their equipment.
