Foreword
RF Energy Exposure and Product Safety Guide for Portable Two-Way Radios
CAUTION: Before using this product, read the operating instructions for safe usage contained in the Product Safety and RF Exposure booklet enclosed with your radio, which contains important operating instructions for safe usage and RF energy awareness and control for compliance with applicable Standards and Regulations.
Acoustic Safety
Exposure to loud noises from any source for extended periods of time may temporarily or permanently affect your hearing. The louder the radio's volume, the less time is required before your hearing could be affected. Hearing damage from loud noise is sometimes undetectable at first and can have a cumulative effect. To protect your hearing:
- Use the lowest volume necessary to do your job.
- Turn up the volume only if you are in noisy surroundings.
- Turn down the volume before adding headset or earpiece.
- Limit the amount of time you use headsets or earpieces at high volume.
- When using the radio without a headset or earpiece, do not place the radio's speaker directly against your ear.
- If you experience hearing discomfort, ringing in your ears, or speeches that are muffled, you should stop listening to your radio through your headset or earpiece, and have your hearing checked by your doctor.
Chapter 1: Service and Warranty
Other than the clip, the PMMN4127 Remote Speaker Microphone (RSM) is not repairable. The RSM is covered under the standard Motorola Solutions one-year limited warranty.

Motorola Solutions is not responsible for problems or damage caused by any ancillary equipment or peripherals (e.g., batteries, chargers, adapters, power supplies) not furnished or manufactured by Motorola Solutions which are attached to or used with the Product. If the Product is used with such equipment, Motorola Solutions does not warrant the operation of the Product/peripheral combination and will not honor any warranty claim if it is determined that the issue stems from the combination, not the Product itself. Opening or dismantling the Product immediately voids the warranty. Motorola Solutions disclaims responsibility for any damage caused by improper installation by unauthorized personnel.
Chapter 2: Important Information
- Do not charge your accessory in temperatures below 0°C (32°F) or above 45°C (113°F).
