Product Safety and RF Exposure
RF Exposure Compliance and Control Guidelines and Operating Instructions
To control exposure to yourself and others and to ensure compliance with the RF exposure limits,
always adhere to the following procedures.
Guidelines:
• User awareness instructions should accompany device when transferred to other users.
• Do not use this device if the operational requirements described herein are not met.
Instructions:
• Transmit no more that the rated duty factor of 50% of the time. To transmit (talk), push the
Push-To-Talk (PTT) button. To receive calls, release the PTT button. Transmitting 50% of the
time, or less, is important because this terminal generates measurable RF energy exposure only
when transmitting (in terms of measuring for standards compliance).
• Transmit only when people outside the vehicle are at least the recommended minimum
lateral distance away, as shown in Table 1, from the body of a vehicle with a properly
installed antenna. This separation distance will ensure that there is sufficient distance from a
properly installed (according to installation instructions) externally-mounted antenna to satisfy
the RF exposure requirements in the standards listed above.

CM5000 Mobile Repeater/Gateway - Basic Service Manual
Table 1 lists the recommended lateral distance for bystanders
in an uncontrolled environment from the body of a vehicle with
an approved, properly installed transmitting antenna (i.e.
monopoles over a ground plane, or dipoles) at several different
ranges of rated radio power for mobile terminals installed in a
vehicle.
Minimum Lateral Distance From Vehicle Body
20 cm (8 Inches)
30 cm (1 Ft)
60 cm (2 Ft)
90 cm (3 Ft)
If you are not sure of the rated power of your terminal, contact
your Motorola representative or dealer and supply the terminal
model number found on the terminal model label. If you cannot
determine the rated power out, then assure 90cms (3 feet)
separation from the body of the vehicle.
