I. FCC RF Exposure Compliance Requirements -
for Occupational Use Only
The Federal Communications Commission (FCC), with
its action in General Docket 93-62, November 7, 1997,
has adopted a safety standard for human exposure to
Radio Frequency (RF) electromagnetic energy emitted
by FCC regulated equipment. Topaz3 / Legacy subscribes
to the same safety standard for the use of its products.
Proper operation of this radio will result in user
exposure far below the Occupational Safety and Health
Act (OSHA)and Federal Communications Commission
limits.
CAUTION - 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.
•This radio is NOT approved for use by the general
population in an uncontrolled environment. This radio
is restricted to occupational use, work related operations
only where radio operator must have the knowledge to
control its RF exposure conditions.
•The radio is transmitting when the red LED on the
front of the radio is illuminated. You can cause the radio
to transmit by pressing the P-T-T bar on the radio.
•When transmitting, hold the radio in a vertical position
with its microphone 1 to 2 inches (2.5 to 5 cm) away
from your mouth. Keep the antenna at least 1 inch
(2.5 cm) from your head and body.

I. FCC RF Exposure Compliance Requirements -
for Occupational Use Only, continued
•ALWAYS use Maxon, Legacy and TruTalk authorized
accessories: antennas, batteries, belt clips, speaker
mics, etc.
•Failure to observe these restrictions will result in
exceeding the FCC RF exposure limits.

III. Getting Started
Charging the NiMH Battery Pack
You will need to charge the battery pack fully before
initial use. For best results from your charging cycle,
follow these tips:
•Ensure the ambient temperature is between 41 and
104 °F (5 and 40°C) while charging. Temperatures
outside this range may not fully charge the battery.
• Always switch OFF the transceiver equipped with
a NiMH battery pack before charging. Using the
radio during the charging cycle will hinder correct
charging.
• Do not recharge the battery pack if it is already
fully charged. Doing so may cause the life of the
battery pack to shorten or the battery pack may
be damaged.
• If the battery is stored for 2 months or more, it is a
good idea to complete the charge / discharge cycle
two or three times to allow the battery capacity
to return to normal.
• Never dispose of the battery in fire - it can explode
causing personal injury.
• Never attempt to disassemble the battery or remove
its case material or charging contacts. Do not short
the battery terminals.

III. Getting Started, continued
Charging the NiMH Battery Pack, continued
NOTE: The first few uses from the battery will not be
at “normal” capacity. After repeating the charge / dis-
charge cycle two or three times, the battery capacity
will increase to provide full capacity.
1. Plug the AC adapter cable in the adapter jack
located on the rear of the charger, then into
an AC outlet.
2. Slide the NiMH battery pack (or the radio equipped
with a NiMH battery pack) into the charging slot.
3. Ensure that the metal contacts on the battery pack
come in contact with the charging terminals.
4. When charging the NiMH battery pack alone, insert
the provided plastic spacer into the charging well,
then insert the battery pack.
5. The charger LED will light to advise that charging
has begun. Charge the standard battery pack for
9 hours, THEN REMOVE THE PACK OR RADIO
FROM THE CHARGER.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
The charger DOES NOT TURN OFF AUTO-
MATICALLY after the charging cycle has been
completed. You will need to unplug the AC
adaptor from the outlet.
