4SAFETY INFORMATIONThe operator of any mobile radio should be aware of certain hazardscommon to the operation of vehicular radio transmissions. A list ofseveral possible hazards is given:1. Explosive Atmospheres - Just as it is dangerous to fuel a vehicle withthe motor running, similar hazards exist when operating a mobile radio,be sure to turn the radio off while fueling the vehicle. Do not carrycontainers of fuel in the trunk of the vehicle if the radio is mounted inthe trunk.2. Interference to Vehicular Electronics Systems - Electronic fuelinjection systems, electronic anti-skid braking systems, electroniccruise control systems, etc., are typical electronic systems that maymalfunction due to the lack of protection from radio frequency energypresent when transmitting. If the vehicle contains such equipment,consult the dealer and enlist their aid in determining the expectedperformance of electronic circuits when the radio is transmitting.3. Dynamite Blasting Caps - Dynamite blasting caps may be caused toexplode by operating a radio within 500 feet of the blasting caps.Always obey the "Turn Off Two-Way Radios" signs posted wheredynamite is being used.When transporting blasting caps in your vehicle:a. Carry the blasting caps in a closed metal box with a soft lining.b. Leave the radio OFF whenever the blasting caps are being put intoor removed from the vehicle.4. Liquefied Petroleum (LP) Gas Powered Vehicles - Mobile radioinstallations in vehicles powered by liquefied petroleum gas with theLP gas container in the trunk or other sealed-off space within theinterior of the vehicle must conform to the National Fire ProtectionAssociation standard (NFPA) 58 requiring:a. The space containing the radio equipment shall be isolated by aseal from the space containing the LP gas container and its fittings.b. Outside filling connections shall be used for the LP gas container.c. The LP gas container shall be vented to the outside of the vehicle.
5MAXIMUM PERMISSIBLE EXPOSURE (MPE)LIMITSDo not transmit with this radio and antenna when persons are within theMPE Radius of the antenna, unless such persons (vehicle occupants orbystanders, for example) are shielded from the antenna field by a groundedmetallic barrier (such as the user’s vehicle rooftop). The MPE Radius is theminimum distance from the antenna axis that ALL persons should maintainin order to avoid RF exposure higher than the allowable MPE level set bythe FCC.WARNINGFAILURE TO OBSERVE THESE LIMITS MAYALLOW ALL PERSONS WITHIN THE MPERADIUS TO EXPERIENCE RF RADIATIONABSORPTION, WHICH EXCEEDS THE FCCMAXIMUM PERMISSIBLE, EXPOSURE (MPE)LIMIT. IT IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THERADIO OPERATOR TO ENSURE THAT THEMAXIMUM PERMISSIBLE EXPOSURE LIMITS ARE OBSERVEDAT ALL TIMES DURING RADIO TRANSMISSION. THE RADIOOPERATOR IS TO ENSURE THAT NO BYSTANDERS COMEWITHIN THE RADIUS OF THE MAXIMUM PERMISSIBLEEXPOSURE LIMITS SHOWN BELOW.DETERMINING MPE RADIUSTHE MAXIMUM PERMISSIBLE EXPOSURE RADIUS HASBEEN ESTIMATED TO BE A RADIUS OF ABOUT 55INCHES (OR 138 CM) FOR THE VEHICULAR MOUNTEDANTENNA SYSTEMS, AND 77 INCHES (OR 195 CM) FORBASE STATION MOUNTED ANTENNA SYSTEMS PER OETBULLETIN 65 OF THE FCC. THIS ESTIMATE IS MADEUSING THE MAXIMUM CAPABLE POWER OF THERADIO, ANTENNAS WITH A MAXIMUM GAIN OF 3 dBd(FOR VEHICULAR MOUNTED SYSTEMS) OR 6 dBd (FORBASE STATION SYSTEMS), AND A MAXIMUM 50%TRANSMIT DUTY CYCLE (DUE TO THE PUSH-TO-TALKSTATUS FOR THIS MOBILE).
6SAFETY TRAINING INFORMATIONWARNINGYOUR COM-NET ERICSSON PANTHER 300MMOBILE RADIO GENERATES RFELECTROMAGNETIC ENERGY DURINGTRANSMIT MODE. THIS RADIO ISDESIGNED FOR AND CLASSIFIED AS“OCCUPATIONAL USE ONLY” MEANINGIT MUST BE USED ONLY IN THE COURSE OFEMPLOYMENT BY INDIVIDUALS AWARE OF THEHAZARDS AND THE WAYS TO MINIMIZE SUCHHAZARDS. THIS RADIO IS NOT INTENDED FOR USE BYTHE “GENERAL POPULATION” IN AN UNCONTROLLEDENVIRONMENT. IT IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THERADIO OPERATOR TO ENSURE THAT THE MAXIMUMPERMISSIBLE EXPOSURE LIMITS DETERMINED IN THEPREVIOUS SECTION ARE OBSERVED AT ALL TIMESDURING TRANSMISSION. THE RADIO OPERATOR IS TOENSURE THAT NO BYSTANDERS COME WITHIN THERADIUS OF THE MAXIMUM PERMISSIBLE EXPOSURELIMITS.This radio has been examined and complies with the FCC RFexposure limits when persons are beyond the MPE radius of theantenna. In addition, your Com-Net Ericsson radio complies withthe following Standards and Guidelines with regard to RF energyand electromagnetic energy levels and evaluation of such levels forexposure to humans:• FCC OET Bulletin 65 Edition 97-01 Supplement C, EvaluatingCompliance with FCC Guidelines for Human Exposure to RadioFrequency Electromagnetic Fields.• American National Standards Institute (C95.1 – 1992), IEEEStandard for Safety Levels with Respect to Human Exposure toRadio Frequency Electromagnetic Fields, 3 kHz to 300 GHz.• American National Standards Institute (C95.3 – 1992), IEEERecommended Practice for the Measurement of PotentiallyHazardous Electromagnetic Fields – RF and Microwave.
7CAUTIONTO ENSURE THAT YOUR EXPOSURE TO RFELECTROMAGNETIC ENERGY IS WITHINTHE FCC ALLOWABLE LIMITS FOROCCUPATIONAL USE, ALWAYS ADHERETO THE FOLLOWING GUIDELINES:• DO NOT operate the radio without a proper antenna attached, asthis may damage the radio, and may also cause you to exceedFCC RF exposure limits. A proper antenna for installation on avehicle has a maximum gain of 3 dBd. A proper antenna forinstallation on a rooftop or tower in a desktop base station setuphas a maximum gain of 6 dBd.

10INSTALLATIONSTEP 1 - PLAN THE INSTALLATIONFigure 1 shows an example of a typical connection diagram. Beforebeginning, plan the radio installation carefully so that it will:! Be safe for the operator and passengers,! Be convenient for the operator to use,! Be neat in appearance,! Be protected from water damage,! Be easy to service,! Be out of the way of auto mechanics,! Be out of the way of passengers, and! Allow for good air flow around the unit’s cooling fins.For passenger safety, mount the radio securely so the unit will notbreak loose in the event of a collision. This is especially importantin station wagons, vans and similar type installations where a looseradio could be extremely dangerous to the vehicle occupants.The procedures in this section provide a guideline for installing themobile radio. In some applications, it may be necessary to deviateslightly from the recommended procedure and the order in which theequipment is installed.To assure the feasibility of the cable routes you plan to use, it issuggested that you run the cables before installing the radio. Be sureto leave some slack in each cable so that the radio may be pulled outfor servicing with the power applied.It is recommended the unit be installed by one of the many Com-NetEricsson Authorized Service Centers located throughout the UnitedStates. Personnel at these centers are experienced in installations ofthis type and can provide a safe, neat, and functional installation.STEP 2 - LOCATE THE TOOLS REQUIREDThe following tools are required to install the PANTHER 300MMobile Radio:• Electric drill for drilling mounting holes
11• Drills and circle cutters as follows:! No. 31 (1/8-inch) drill! 1/2-inch drill or circle cutter! 3/4-inch circle cutter, hole saw or socket punch• Phillips and flat-blade screwdrivers• No. 10 Torx driverTorx is a registered trademark of CAMCAR Division TEXTRON, Inc.STEP 3 – EQUIPMENT PREPARATIONMountingThis section describes the radio preparation for installation. In mostapplications, the following procedures should be completed beforethe radio is mounted. Depending upon the mounting location, theseprocedures could become very difficult after the radio is mounted.The preparation list includes:• Configuring the Internal Speaker Jumper• Configuring the Ignition Sense Line Jumper• Connecting the Option Cable to the RadioRead through the procedures provided in this section. If you aresatisfied with the default factory jumper settings and your installationdoes not require an option cable, skip this section and go to STEP 4– PROGRAM THE RADIO on page 16.Removing the Top Cover and ShieldThe top cover and shield must be removed to change the InternalSpeaker jumper (JP701) or the ignition sense line jumper (JP600), toconnect the option cable to the radio.1. The top cover is secured with three screws from the bottom ofthe radio. Using a No. 10 Torx driver, loosen the three screws! on the top of the radio as shown in Figure 2.2. Remove the two control knobs from the front of the radio.3. Pry the cover loose from the two tabs on the bottom of the radio.
