As defined by the WEEE directive, this cross-out trash bin label means that customers and end-users in EU countries should not dispose of electronic and electrical equipment or accessories in household waste.

Style Conventions

The following style conventions are used:

Convention

Description

Bold This typeface is used for names of, for instance, windows, buttons, and labels when these names appear on the screen (example: the Alarms Browser window). When it is clear that we are referring to, for instance, a button, the name is used alone (example: Click OK).
Monospacing font in bold This typeface is used for words to be typed in exactly as they are shown in the text (example: In the Address field, type http://ucs01.ucs:9080/).
Monospacing font This typeface is used for messages, prompts, and other text displayed on the computer screen (example: A new trap destination has been added).
<Monospacing font in bold Italic> This typeface is used with angle brackets as placeholders for a specific member of the group that the words represent (example:  <router number>).

NOTICE: In sequences to be typed in, the angle brackets are omitted to avoid confusion about whether to include the angle brackets in the text to be typed.

CAPITAL LETTERS This typeface is used for keyboard keys (example: Press Y, and then press ENTER).
Italic This typeface is used for citations. A citation usually is the name of a document or a phrase from another document (example: Dimetra IP System Overview).
→ An → (arrow pointing right) is used for indicating the menu or tab structure in instructions on how to select a certain menu item (example: File→Save) or a certain sub-tab.

Foreword

RF Energy Exposure and Product Safety Guide
CAUTION: Before using this product, read the RF Energy Exposure and Product Safety Guide that ships with the radio which contains instructions for safe usage and RF energy awareness and control for compliance with applicable standards and regulations.

Acoustic Safety
Exposure to loud noises from any source for extended periods of time may temporarily or permanently affect your hearing. The louder the volume of the radio, the less time is required before your hearing can be affected.
Hearing damage from loud noise is sometimes undetectable at first and can have a cumulative effect.
Follow the following guidelines to protect your hearing:

  • Use the lowest volume necessary to do your job.
  • Turn up the volume only if you are in noisy surroundings.
  • Turn down the volume before attaching the headset or earpiece.
  • Limit the amount of time you use headsets or earpieces at high volume.
  • When using the radio without a headset or earpiece, do not place the speaker of the radio directly against your ear.
  • If you experience hearing discomfort, ringing in your ears, or muffled speech, you should stop listening to your radio through your headset or earpiece, and have your hearing checked by your doctor.
    Refer to the Approval manual that ships with the radio for information on intrinsic and/or non-incendive safety certification.
