Safety warnings
Persons with cardiac pacemakers are generally advised not to use radio sets! No transmission in
immediate proximity to persons with cardiac pacemakers.
Do not touch the antenna during the transmission; do not hold it close to your body, especially not
close to the face or the eyes. When using a headset be sure not to turn the volume of your radio
set too high: otherwise the noise might damage your hearing.
Do not operate the radio sets neither in an aircraft nor in a hospital or in comparable facilities.
Switch off the radio sets, if you are in explosive-prone environment (e. g. petrol station). Make sure
not to change the battery pack/the battery in those places.
When using the radio set in a vehicle be sure to comply with the national regulations! In some
countries it is forbidden to use a radio set while driving a vehicle! In a vehicle equipped with an
airbag you must not operate or store the radio sets neither directly above the airbag nor in the
ination zone of the airbag.
Never open the housing of a radio set or its accessories and do not carry out any modication.
Ensure that any repair is carried out by qualied personnel only. Modications of or interventions
in the radio set automatically lead to an expiry of the type approval, moreover it voids all warranty
claims!

If you state the odour emissions or the formation of smoke, immediately switch off the radio set
and remove the battery pack/the batteries. Do not operate the radio set, if you detect any damage
of the housing or the antenna. Contact a qualied workshop.
