• Slots and openings in the cabinet are provided for ventilation. Do not block or cover openings that protect the devices from overheating.

• 

• Some equipment components can become extremely hot during operation. Turn off all power to the equipment and wait until sufficiently cool before touching.

• Maintain emergency first aid kits at the site.

• Never store combustible materials in or near equipment racks. The combination of combustible material, heat and electrical energy increases the risk of a fire hazard.

• Equipment should be installed in a site that meets the requirements of a “restricted access location,” per (UL60950-1, UL62368 & EN62368), which is defined as follows: “Access can only be gained by service persons or by users who have been instructed about the reasons for the restrictions applied to the location and about any precautions that shall be taken; and access is through the use of a tool or lock and key, or other means of security, and is controlled by the authority responsible for the location.”

• 

• Burn hazard. The metal housing of the product may become extremely hot. Use caution when working around the equipment.

• RF energy burn hazard. Disconnect power in the cabinet to prevent injury before disconnecting and connecting antennas.

• Shock hazard. The outer shields of all Tx and Rx RF cables outer shields must be grounded per the Motorola Solutions R56 manual.

• Shock hazard. DC input voltage should be no higher than 60 VDC. This maximum voltage should include consideration of the battery charging “float voltage” associated with the intended supply system, regardless of the marked power rating of the equipment.

• All Tx and Rx RF cables should be connected to a surge protection device according to the Motorola Solutions R56 manual. Do not connect Tx and Rx RF cables directly to an outside antenna.

Caution: Compliance with National and International standards and guidelines for human exposure to Electromagnetic Energy (EME) at Transmitter Antenna sites generally requires that persons who have access to a site should be aware of the potential for exposure to EME and can exercise control of exposure by appropriate means, such as adhering to warning sign instructions. See this installation manual and Appendix A of Motorola Solutions R56.

This product complies with the requirements set forth by the European RED regulations and applicable CENELEC standards concerning human exposure to Electromagnetic Energy (EME) at Transmitter Antenna sites. Appendix F of the SLR 5000 Series Repeater Basic Service and Installation Manual includes an EME exposure analysis of a typical system configuration for this product.
For a different system configuration than the typical configuration, compliance with applicable EME exposure standards (e.g. EN50385, EN50401, IEC/IEEE 62704-2, and US Federal Communication Commission, OET Bulletin 65 (Ed. 97-01), August 1997) can be evaluated following the method illustrated in Appendix E in the SLR 5000 Series Repeater Basic Service and Installation Manual, or employing other suitable methods in the current versions of the EN62232 and IEEE C95.3 standards.
Once the occupational and general public compliance boundaries are determined, means to ensure that workers and people are outside the respective boundaries, for instance using appropriate signage or restricted access, should be implemented; if this is not possible or practically achievable for the specific system configuration, the configuration should be modified in order to make it possible. The R56 Standards and Guidelines for Communications Sites manual provides examples of signage that can be used to identify the occupational or general public compliance boundaries.
Refer to product specific manuals for detailed safety and installation instructions. Manuals can be obtained with product orders, downloaded from https://emeaonline.motorolasolutions.com or purchased through the Motorola Solutions Aftermarket & Accessory Department.
