Acoustic Safety

Exposure to loud noises from any source for extended periods of time may temporarily or permanently affect your hearing. The louder the volume of the radio, the sooner your hearing will be affected. Hearing damage from loud noise is sometimes undetectable at first, and can have a cumulative effect.
To protect your hearing:

  • Use the lowest volume necessary to do your job.
  • Turn up the volume only if you are in noisy surroundings.
  • Turn down the volume before adding headset or earpiece.
  • Limit the amount of time you use headsets or earpieces at high volume.
  • When using the radio without a headset or earpiece, do not place the radio’s speaker directly against your ear.

Medical Devices

If you use a personal medical device, such as a pacemaker or hearing aid, consult the manufacturer of your device to determine if it is adequately shielded from RF energy. Your physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this information.

Holsters Incorporating Magnets

Some Motorola Solutions holsters incorporate strong, neodymium magnets. If you use a personal medical device, such as a pacemaker or hearing aid, consult the manufacturer of your device to determine if it can be used in close proximity to magnets. Your physician may be able to assist you in obtaining this information. Also be aware that magnets can damage other products, including cell phones, computers, hard drives, and other electronic devices, as well as credit cards and magnetic media. Keep the holster away from any mechanical device that could be affected by a magnetic field. Consult the manufacturer of your product to determine if your device or product can be used in close proximity to magnets.

Operational Warnings

The following explains the operational warnings:
For Vehicle With Air Bags
Warning:

  • Refer to vehicle manufacturer’s manual prior to installation of electronic equipment to avoid interference with air bag wiring.
  • DO NOT place a portable radio in the area over an air bag or in the air bag deployment area. Air bags inflate with great force. If a portable radio is placed in the air bag deployment area and the air bag inflates, the radio may be propelled with great force and cause serious injury to occupants of the vehicle.

Potentially Explosive Atmospheres
Warning:

  • Do not carry a radio that is not certified for Hazardous Locations into a potentially explosive atmosphere. It could result in a serious injury or death. You should only use a radio certified for hazardous locations in potentially explosive atmospheres.
  • Explosive atmospheres refer to hazard classified locations that may contain hazardous gas, vapors, dusts, such as fueling areas below decks on boats, fuel or chemical transferor storage facilities, and areas where the air contains chemicals or particles such as grain, dust or metal powders. Areas with potentially explosive atmospheres are often, but not always, posted.
  • DO NOT remove, install, or charge batteries in such areas, or remove or install antennas. Sparks in a potentially explosive atmosphere can cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death.

Blasting Caps and Blasting Areas
Warning: To avoid possible interference with blasting operations, turn off your radio when you are near electrical blasting caps, in a blasting area, or in areas posted: “Turn off two-way radio.” Obey all signs and instructions.

Batteries

Caution: Use only Motorola Solutions approved batteries.

  • Risk of explosion if the battery is replaced by an incorrect type.
  • Charge your battery using the approved Motorola Solutions charger.
  • Use the battery in accordance with its water and/or dust Ingress Protection (IP) rating.
  • Do not discard your battery into a fire.
  • Do not replace the battery in any area labeled “Hazardous Atmosphere”.
  • Do not disassemble, crush, puncture, shred, or otherwise attempt to change the form of your battery.
  • Do not dry a wet or damp battery with an appliance or heat source, such as a hair dryer or microwave oven.
  • Do not allow conductive material such as jewelry, keys, or beaded chains to touch exposed battery terminals.
  • Do not dispose of batteries with household waste.

Safety Instructions for Power Supply

  1. The power supply is for use with equipment according to IEC/EN/UL 62368-1/60950-1.
  2.  The power supply is for indoor use in dry locations.
  3. The equipment shall be connected to a nearby and easily accessible socket outlet.
  4. If the power supply is damaged or defective, do not repair or use the power supply.

Repair

Warning:

  • Repairs to a Motorola Solutions Hazardous Location-Approved radio product certified by, for example, UL, CSA, CENELEC, should only be done at a location that has been audited under the certifying body’s repair and service standard.
  • Contact Motorola Solutions for assistance regarding repairs and service of Motorola Solutions Hazardous Location-Approved equipment. A repair constitutes something done internally to the unit that would bring it back to its original condition.

Items not considered as repairs are those in which an action is performed on a unit which does not require the outer casing of the unit to be opened in a manner that exposes the internal electrical circuits of the unit.

Do Not Substitute Options or Accessories

The Motorola Solutions communications equipment certified as intrinsically safe by the approving agency (UL, CSA, CENELEC) is tested as a complete system which consists of the listed agency Approved portable, Approved battery, and Approved accessories or options, or both. This Approved portable and battery combination must be strictly observed. There must be no substitution of items, even if the substitute has been previously Approved with a different Motorola Solutions communications equipment unit. Approved configurations are listed by the Approving Agency (UL, CSA, CENELEC).
The Hazardous Location-Approved Label affixed to radio refers to the intrinsically safe classification of that radio product, and the approved batteries that can be used with that system.
The manual part number referenced on the Hazardous Location-Approved Label identifies the approved Accessories and or options that can be used with that portable radio unit.
Using a non-Motorola Solutions-Hazardous Location-Approved battery and/or accessory with the Motorola Solutions approved radio unit will void the Hazardous Location approval of that radio unit.
European Union (EU) Waste of Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Directive
The European Union’s WEEE directive requires that products sold into EU countries must have the crossed out trash bin label on the product (or the package in some cases). As defined by the WEEE directive, this cross-out trash bin label means that customers and end-users in EU countries should not dispose of electronic and electrical equipment or accessories in household waste. Customers or end-users in EU countries should contact their local equipment supplier representative or service centre for information about the waste collection system in their country.
For Brazil, information for disposal and recycling of electronic waste, batteries, and packaging, please call: 0800168272.
