CAUTION

SAFETY INFORMATION

Your wireless hand-held portable transceiver contains a low power

transmitter. When the PTT button is pushed (or the VOX mode is enabled)

it sends out radio frequency (RF) signals. The device is authorized to operate

at a duty factor not to exceed 50%. In August 1996, the Federal

Communications Commissions (FCC) adopted RF exposure guidelines

with safety levels for hand-held wireless devices.

Important: To maintain compliance with the FCC’ s RF exposure guidelines

hold the transmitter at least 1 inch (2.5 centimeters) from your

face and speak in a normal voice, with the antenna pointed up

and away. If you wear the handset on your body while using the

headset accessory, use only the Audiovox supplied carry clip

for this product and ensure that the antenna is at least 1 inch

(2.5 centimeters) from your body when transmitting. Use only

the supplied antenna. Do not use your transceiver with a

damaged antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or

attachments could damage the transmitter and may violate

FCC regulations.

Performance:

Your transceiver will only achieve its maximum operating range when

communicating with other transceivers across open and flat areas or

between elevated points. Normally occurring environmental factors such

as buildings, trees, terrain and weather, or interference from other radio or

electrical equipment, may have adverse effects on the transceiver’s effective

range. These are not indicative of a fault condition.

Avoid placing the GMRS8000-2 radio transceiver for prolonged periods of

time in direct sunlight or temperatures below -4°F(-20°C) or above

140°F (60°C).

Place the rubber cover on jacks when not in use.

WARNINGS:

Battery Care

Never attempt to charge alkaline or dry cell batteries, as batteries may

burst causing personal injury and damage to the product. If rechargeable

batteries are used, such as Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH), use only Audiovox-

approved rechargeable batteries. Use of the optional Audiovox charger

with other brands of batteries is not recommended, as battery charging

times will vary with different brands. Refer to the Manufacturer’s instructions

for charging other brands of batteries.

Battery Disposal

In general, if handled improperly, batteries pose a risk of fire or burns. Do

not disassemble, crush, puncture, short external contacts, or dispose of

the batteries in fire or water. Dispose of the batteries in a environmentally

safe manner and recycle whenever possible.

FCC WARNING

Replacement or substitution of transistors, diodes or other parts of a unique

nature, with parts other than those recommended by the manufacturer,

may cause a violation of the technical regulations of Part 15 of FCC Rules.

Powering the transceiver:

Your GMRS8000-2 radio transceiver operates on five AAA Alkaline batteries.

Alkaline batteries will provide slightly better performance than rechargeable

batteries (purchased separately). Only Audiovox approved rechargeable

batteries should be recharged in the radio transceiver using the optional

charging accessories. This will ensure optimum performance for the

GMRS8000-2. Battery charging time is typically 16 - 20 hours. Use of the

optional Audiovox charging equipment with other brands of rechargeable

batteries is not recommended as battery charging times will vary. Refer to

the manufacturer’s instructions for charging other brands of batteries.

Batteries

There are three methods of powering the GMRS8000-2:

1. Alkaline Batteries.

WARNING: Do not attempt to recharge Alkaline batteries.

2. Audiovox Rechargeable Ni-MH Batteries - (Rechargeable NiMH

batteries and Charging Adapter NOT included). Use only Audiovox

approved rechargeable batteries and charging equipment
