User’ s Guide 2-WAY RADIO MODEL PR990 VP Batteries and Charger To Install or Replace Batteries: 1. Remove belt clip by releasing belt clip latch and sliding clip up. 2. Pull down on the battery door latch to remove the battery compartment cover. 3. Insert the supplied four (4) AAA rechargeable batteries (also works with alkaline batteries). Position batteries according to polarity markings. 4. Replace battery compartment cover and belt clip. Lock Button Locks buttons to prevent accidental channel or settings changes. Char ger Jack Charger Jack (also works with external speaker/microphones). Printed in the Philippines Part No. 480-159-P Battery Compar tment Cover Battery Door Latc h Wrist Strap Connector Belt Clip Antenna Speaker/ Microphone Backlit LCD Display Talk Button Press and hold to communicate with others. With the microphone about two (2) inches [five (5) cm] from your mouth, speak in a normal voice. Release the T alk button when you are finished talking and listen for a response. You cannot receive incoming calls while pressing the Talkbutton. NOTEBoth radios must be tuned to the same channel to communicate. For Pr oducts Used in the U.S.A. FCC Licensing Required This 2-way radio operates on GMRS (General Mobile Radio Service) frequencies which require an FCC (Federal Communications Commission) license. A user must be licensed prior to operating on channels 1 through 7 or 15 through 22, which comprise the GMRS channels of this radio. Serious penalties could result for unlicensed use of GMRS channels, in violation of FCC rules, as stipulated in the Communication Act’s Sections 501 and 502 (amended). Licensed users will be issued a call sign by the FCC, which should be used for station identification when operating this radio. GMRS users should also cooperate by engaging in permissible transmissions only , avoiding channel inter ference with other GMRS users, and being prudent with the length of their transmission time. For licensing information and application forms, please call the FCC Hotline at 800-418-FORM. Request form #159 and form #605. Questions regarding the license application should be directed to the FCC at 888-CALL-FCC. Additional information is available on the FCC’s website at www.fcc.gov. Safety Information for microTALK ® Radios Y our wireless handheld portable transceiver contains a low power transmitter . When the T alk button is pushed, 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 Commission (FCC) adopted RF exposure guidelines with safety levels for handheld wireless devices. Important: FCC RF Exposure Requirements: For body-worn operation, this radio has been tested and meets the FCC RF exposure guidelines when used with Cobra ® accessories supplied or designated for this product. Use of other accessories may not ensure compliance with FCC RF exposure guidelines. Use only the supplied antenna. Unauthorized antennas, modifications, or attachments could damage the transmitter and may violate FCC regulations. Normal Position: Hold the transmitter approximately two (2) inches from your face and speak in a normal voice, with the antenna pointed up and away . For Products Used in Canada Industry Canada Notice Operation is subject to the following two (2) conditions: 1) this device may not cause interference, and 2) this device must accept any inter ference, including inter ference that may cause undesired operation of the device. «IC» before the equipment certification number signifies that the Industry Canada technical specifications were met. It does not guarantee that the certified product will operate to the user’s satisfaction.

Grant Notes
Listed Power is ERP. This device is authorized to operate in the following radio services: FRS (Part 95B) or GMRS (Part 95A). There must be an informational insert inside the box (product package) or the User�s Manual must include information that clearly informs the consumer (buyer/owner) when the radio is transmitting on GMRS frequencies, that operation on GMRS frequencies requires an FCC license and such operation is subject to additional rules specified in 47 C.F.R. Part 95. This transmitter has been tested for SAR compliance in Push-to-Talk and body-worn operating configurations. Hand held and body-worn SAR compliance is limited to the specific antennas / belt-clips / holsters / accessories tested for this device. Users must be provided with transmitter operating conditions for satisfying RF exposure compliance. This device complies with OET Bulletin 65 for General Population use. The highest reported SAR levels are: Head: 0.481 W/kg for 50% Duty Cycle, Body 0.628 W/kg for 50% Duty Cycle.
