Listening at a safe level
Listening at high volumes can cause hearing damage. Always reduce the volume to a comfortable listening level.

Interference with electronic devices
Warning Some electronic devices may be prone to malfunction due to a lack of protection from the RF energy that is present when your radio is transmitting.

Examples of electronic devices that may be affected by RF energy are:

• aircraft electronic systems
• vehicular electronic systems such as fuel injection, anti-skid brakes, and cruise control
• medical devices such as pacemakers and hearing aids
• medical equipment in hospitals or health care facilities.

Switch off the radio before boarding an aircraft. Using your radio while in the air is not permitted.
Consult the manufacturer (or its representative) of any such electronic devices to determine whether electronic circuits in those devices will perform normally when the radio is transmitting.

Warning If you have a pacemaker:

•  immediately turn off the radio if you suspect it is interfering with the pacemaker
• keep the radio at least 6 inches (15cm) from the pacemaker while the radio is on
• use the radio on the side opposite to the pacemaker to minimize interference
• never carry the radio in a breast pocket

If there is interference between your hearing aid and the radio, please discuss an alternative solution with the hearing aid manufacturer.

Radio frequency exposure information

This radio emits radio frequency (RF) energy (radio waves) primarily when calls are made. RF is a form of electromagnetic energy (like sunlight), and maximum levels of exposure to RF are regulated to ensure your safety and the safety of those around you.
To comply with RF exposure regulations, please read the following information before using this radio.

Controlling exposure to RF energy

SAR tests are conducted using standard operating positions accepted by the transmitting at its highest certified power level in all tested frequency bands, although the SAR is determined at the highest certified power level, the actual SAR level of the device while operating can be well below the maximum value.
Before a new model device is a available for sale to the public, it must be tested and certified to the FCC that it does not exceed the exposure limit established by the FCC, Tests for each device are positions and locations (worn on the body)as required by the FCC.

For face-up, mm was used for test, this equipment should be installed and operated with minimum distance 10 mm.
Non-compliance with the above restrictions may result in violation of RF exposure guidelines.

Warning Only use Tait-approved accessories. Unapproved accessories could increase the SAR values.

Compliance with RF energy exposure standards
This device is in compliance with SAR according to ANSI/IEEE C95.1-1992, Canada RSS 102, 2013/35/EU and others.
This device was tested in accordance with the measurement methods and procedures specified in IEEE1528, Canada RSS 102, ICNIRP and EN 62479, EN50566,EN50663.
This device is designed to not exceed the limits for exposure to radio waves (radiofrequency electromagnetic fields) and complies with:

a. 62479:2010, EN50566:2017,EN50663:2017.
The EN 62479:2010 SAR limit for general population devices is 2.0 W/kg averaged over 10 grams of tissue.
b. Industry Canada license-exempt RSS standard(s), RSS-102.
c. Federal Communication Commission of the United States

Warning Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment. The antenna (s) used for this transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter not approved by Tait.
