Foreword - Motorola GTX/LCS 2000 Service Manual

The information contained in this manual relates to all GTX/LCS 2000™ radios, unless otherwise specified.
Safety Information
An air bag inflates with great force. DO NOT place objects, including communication equipment, in the area
over the air bag or in the air bag deployment area. If the communication equipment is improperly installed and
the air bag inflates, this could cause serious injury.
• Installation of vehicle communication equipment should be performed by a
professional installer/technician qualified in the requirements for such installations. An air bag's size, shape
and deployment area can vary by vehicle make, model and front
compartment configuration (e.g., bench seat vs. bucket seats).
• Contact the vehicle manufacturer's corporate headquarters, if necessary, for specific air bag information for
the vehicle make, model and front compartment configuration involved in your communication equipment
installation.
FCC Safety Information
The Federal Communications Commission (FCC), with its action in General Docket 79-144, March 13, 1985, has
adopted a safety standard for human exposure to radio frequency (RF) electromagnetic energy emitted by FCC-
regulated equipment. Motorola subscribes to the same safety standard for the use of its products. Proper opera-
tion of this radio will result in user exposure substantially below FCC recommended limits.
• DO NOT hold the radio with the antenna very close to, or touching, exposed parts of the body, especially
the face, ears, or eyes, while transmitting. Hold the radio in a vertical position with the microphone two to
three inches away from the lips.
• DO NOT hold the transmit switch (PTT) on when not actually desiring to transmit.
• DO NOT allow children to play with any radio equipment containing a transmitter.
• DO NOT operate this equipment near electrical blasting caps or in an explosive atmosphere. Under certain
conditions, radios can interfere with blasting operations. When you are in the vicinity of construction work,
look for, and observe, signs cautioning against radio transmissions. If radio transmission is prohibited, you
must not transmit until out of the area. Furthermore, you must turn off your radio to prevent any accidental
transmission.
• DO NOT replace or charge batteries in a hazardous atmosphere. Contact sparking may occur while installing
or removing batteries and cause an explosion.
• Turn the radio off when removing or installing a battery.
Anyone intending to use a radio in a hazardous area is advised to become familiar with the subject of intrinsic
safety and with Section 70 of the National Fire Code, which is commonly referred to as Article 500 of the
National Electric Code. Use of anything but factory supplied components may affect the approval and safety of
the radio. Likewise, it is advised that servicing should be performed only by qualified personnel who adhere to
the following Factory Mutual (FM) required warning:
Modification of FM approved intrinsically safe radios will negate Factory Mutual
Research Corporation (FMRC) approval.
