Do not attempt to charge any non-rechargeable batteries.  
Do not attempt to open the unit case.  
No user serviceable parts inside.  
Refer servicing to qualified service personnel.  
Do not modify or attempt to adjust the transceiver for any reason.  
Avoid extremes in exposure to water, heat and cold. This transceiver is  
weather resistant but not waterproof.  
Do not expose the transceiver to long periods of direct sunlight, nor place the  
transceiver close to heating appliances.  
Do not place the transceiver in excessively dusty areas, humid areas, wet  
areas, nor on unstable surfaces.  
If smoke is detected coming from the transceiver, immediately switch OFF the  
power and remove the batteries from the transceiver. Contact your dealer.  
CAUTION  
Use batteries only for the power of the unit, Alkaline or Rechargeable batteries.  
To maintain compliance with the FCC's RF exposure guidelines, hold the  
transmitter and antenna at least 2 inches (5 centimeters) from your face and  
speak in a normal voice, with the antenna pointed up and away from the face.  
If you wear the handset on your body while using the headset accessory, use  
only the manufacturers supplied bell clip for this product and ensure that the  
antenna is at least 1/2 inch from your body when transmitting.  
Use only the supplied antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or  
attachment, could damage the transmitter and may violate FCC regulations.

NOTES FOR GOOD COMMUNICATIONS  
1. Your FRS Radio uses 22 channels that are shared on a “take turns” basis.  
This means other groups may be talking on any of the channels. A common  
code of ethics/courtesy is to switch to another vacant channel and not to  
attempt to talk over someone who is already using the channel you first  
selected.  
2. Your FRS Radios have been designed to maximize performance and improve  
transmission range in the field. To avoid interference, it is recommended that  
you do not use the units closer than 5 feet apart.  
3. For best transmission results, always keep your mouth about 2-3 inches from  
the Microphone (# 8) and speak slowly and clearly in a normal voice.  
CARE AND MAINTENANCE  
1. Clean your unit with a damp (never wet) cloth. Solvent or detergent should  
never be used.  
2. Avoid leaving your unit in direct sunlight or in hot, humid or dusty places.  
3. Keep your unit away from heating appliances and sources of electrical noise  
such as fluorescent lamps or motors.

REVELANT GUIDELINES AND STANDARDS  
1. Technical Regulations of Part 15 and 95 of the FCC Rules.  
2. Type Acceptance Requirements of Part 2 of the 47CFR Regulations.  
CARE AND SAFETY  
To assure optimal radio performance and to ensure RF energy exposure is within  
the guidelines of the above standards, the following operating procedures should  
be observed:  
FOR PORTABLE 2-WAY FRS RADIOS  
When transmitting with a portable radio, hold radio in a vertical position with its  
microphone 1-2 inches away from your mouth. Keep antenna at least 1 inch  
from your head and body.  
If you wear a portable radio on your body, ensure the antenna is at least 1 inch  
from your body when transmitting.  
ELECTRIOMAGNETIC INTERFERENCE/COMPATIBILITY  
Most electronic devices are susceptible to electromagnetic interference (EMI) if  
inadequately shielded, designed or otherwise configured for electromagnetic  
compatibility.  
Turn off your radio in any facilities where posted notices instruct you to do so.  
Hospitals or health care facilities may be using equipment that is sensitive to  
external RF energy.  
Turn off your radio when on board aircraft when instructed to do so. Any use of  
the radio must be in accordance with airline regulations or crew instructions.  
CAUTION  
Damaged Antenna  
Do not use any radio with a damaged antenna. If a damaged antenna comes in  
contact with the skin, a minor burn may result.  
Batteries  
Do not short circuit exposed terminals of any batteries with any conductive  
materials. In doing so, the material may become quite hot and cause property  
damage and/or body injury such as burns.

WARNING  
Parts Replacement or Substitution  
Replacement or substitution of parts other than those recommended by Spectra®  
may cause a violation of the technical regulations of part 95 of the FCC Rules, or  
violation of Type Acceptance requirements of Part 2 of the FCC Rules.  
For Vehicles with an Air Bag  
Do not place a portable radio in the area over an air bag or in the air bag  
deployment area. Air bags inflate with great force. If a portable radio is placed in  
the air bag deployment area and the air bag inflates, the radio may be propelled  
with great force and cause serious injury to occupants of vehicle.  
Potentially Explosive Atmospheres  
Turn your radio off when in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere,  
unless it is a type especially qualified for such use. Sparks in such areas could  
cause an explosion or fire resulting in body injury or even death.  
Batteries  
Do not replace or charge batteries in a potentially explosive atmosphere. Contact  
sparking may occur while installing or removing batteries and cause an explosion.  
Blasting Caps and Areas  
To avoid possible interference with blasting operations, turn your radio off near  
electrical blasting caps or in a “blasting area” or in areas posted:” Turn off 2-way  
radio”. Obey all signs and instructions.  
Note: Areas with potentially explosive atmospheres are often, but not always,  
clearly marked. They include fuelling areas such as below deck on boats, fuel or  
chemical transfer or storage facilities; areas where the air contains chemicals or  
particles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders; and any other area where you  
would normally be advised to turn off your vehicle engine.
