Your FR-200 Family Radio is a portable, easy to use, two-way
radio that you can carry almost anywhere. It is skillfully constructed
to give you reliable communications for many different applications.
The FR-200 is ideal for use around the house, in your boat, on
hunting and camping trips, on the ski slopes or at the mall.
Your transceiver will achieve its maximum operating range when
communicating with other transceiver(s) in a flat open area with
no trees or buildings obstructing its signal. Range may be up to
two miles under such conditions. Obstacles such as buildings,
trees or mountains will tend to reduce the transceiver’s effective
range.

WARNING
Remove the batteries from the transceiver if it is not expected to
be used for long periods. This will eliminate the possibility of
battery acid leaking from the batteries and corroding the transceiver.
Avoid exposing the unit to water or extremes of temperature.
Do not use this device in or near a mining facility, which uses
remotely triggered explosives or in areas labeled “Blasting Area”.
Premature or accidental detonation may result.
Do not attempt to modify or in any way increase the output of this
transceiver. Its output is designed to meet the legal limits set by
the FCC.
Do not use this device or change its batteries in potentially explosive
atmospheres as sparks in such areas could result in an explosion.
Turn your transceiver off wherever posted notices restrict the use
of radios or cellular telephones. Facilities such as hospitals may
use equipment that is sensitive to RF energy.
Turn your transceiver off on board aircraft when requested to do so.
Do not place your transceiver in front of a vehicle’s air-bag. If the
air-bag deploys, it could propel the transceiver like a projectile.

United States. Use in other countries may be prohibited or restricted
by local regulation. Please check with the local regulating agency
before using this device outside of the United States.
