conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) This device must accept
any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
FCC CAUTION:
Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by Motorola for compliance
could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
FCC RADIATION EXPOSURE STATEMENT
This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled
environment. To comply with the FCC RF exposure compliance requirements, the separation
distance between the antenna and any person’s body (including hands, wrists, feet and ankles)
must be at least 20 cm (8 inches).
This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or
transmitter.

The top facing antenna has a maximum gain of 2dBi and the front facing antenna has a maximum
gain of 4dBi.
To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna types and their gains were so
chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p) is not more than that permitted for
successful communications.
This Class B digital apparatus complies with Canadian ICES-003.
Cet appareil numérique de la classe B est conforme à la norme NMB-003 du Canada.
