not correctly performed or adhered to, could result in personal injury. Do not proceed

beyond a WARNING symbol until the conditions identified are fully understood or

met.

The CAUTION symbol calls attention to an operating procedure, practice, or the like,

which, if not performed correctly or adhered to, could result in damage to the equipment

or severely degrade the equipment performance.

The NOTE symbol calls attention to supplemental information, which may improve

system performance or clarify a process or procedure.

1.2 SAFETY TRAINING INFORMATION

The Harris XL-200P/XL-185P portable radio generates RF electromagnetic energy

during transmit mode. This radio is designed for and classified as “Occupational

Use Only,” meaning it must be used only during the course of employment by

individuals aware of the hazards and the ways to minimize such hazards. This radio

is NOT intended for use by the “General Population” in an uncontrolled

environment.

The XL-200P/XL-185P portable radio has been tested and complies with the FCC RF exposure limits for

“Occupational Use Only.” In addition, this Harris radio complies with the following Standards and

Guidelines regarding RF energy and electromagnetic energy levels and evaluation of such levels for

exposure to humans:

• FCC KDB Publication 447498 General RF Exposure Guidance

• American National Standards Institute (C95.1 – 1992

1

), IEEE Standard for Safety Levels with Respect

to Human Exposure to Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Fields, 3 kHz to 300 GHz.

• American National Standards Institute (C95.3 – 1992), IEEE Recommended Practice for the

Measurement of Potentially Hazardous Electromagnetic Fields – RF and Microwave.

• IC Standard RSS-102. Radiofrequency Exposure Compliance of Radiocommunication Apparatus (All

Frequency Bands).

• European Council Directive 89/391/EEC.

Tested to ANSI C95.1-1992 in compliance with 47 CFR 2.1093. Meets or exceeds safety requirements of ANSI C95.1-2005.

1.2.1 RF Exposure Guidelines

To ensure that exposure to RF electromagnetic energy is within the EU/AU/FCC/IC

allowable limits for occupational use, always adhere to the following guidelines:

• DO NOT operate the radio without a proper antenna attached, as this may damage the radio and may

also cause the FCC RF exposure limits to be exceeded. A proper antenna is the antenna supplied with

this radio by Harris or an antenna specifically authorized by Harris for use with this radio. (Refer to

Table 4-1.)

• DO NOT transmit for more than 50% of total radio use time (“50% duty cycle”). Transmitting more

than 50% of the time can cause FCC RF exposure compliance requirements to be exceeded. The radio

is transmitting when the “TX” indicator appears in the display. The radio will transmit by pressing the

“PTT” (Push-To-Talk) button.

• ALWAYS transmit using low power when possible. In addition to conserving battery charge, low

power can reduce RF exposure.

• ALWAYS use Harris authorized accessories (antennas, batteries, belt clips, speaker/mics, etc.). Use of

unauthorized accessories may cause the FCC Occupational/Controlled Exposure RF compliance

requirements to be exceeded. (Refer to Table 1-1.)

• As noted in Table 1-1, ALWAYS keep the housing of the transmitter AT LEAST 0.47 inches (1.2 cm)

from the body and at least 0.98 in (2.5 cm) from the face when transmitting to ensure EU/AU/FCC/IC

RF exposure compliance requirements are not exceeded. However, to provide the best sound quality to

the recipients of your transmission, Harris recommends you hold the microphone at least 2 in (5 cm)

from mouth, and slightly off to one side.

• Refer to Standard EN 62311:2008.
