PRECAUTIONS RWARNING RF EXPOSURE! This device emits Radio Frequency (RF) energy. Extreme caution should be observed when operating this device. If you have any questions regarding RF exposure and safety standards please refer to the Federal Communications Commission Office of Engineering and Technology's report on Evaluating Compliance with FCC Guidelines for Human Radio frequency Electromagnetic Fields (OET Bulletin 65). RWARNING! NEVER connect the transceiver to an AC out- let. This may pose a fire hazard or result in an electric shock. RWARNING! NEVER operate the transceiver while driving a vehicle. Safe driving requires your full attention-anything less may result in an accident. NEVER connect the transceiver to a power source of more than 16 V DC. This will damage the transceiver. NEVER connect the transceiver to a power source using reverse polarity. This will damage the transceiver. NEVER cut the DC power cable between the DC plug and fuse holder. If an incorrect connection is made after cutting, the transceiver may be damaged. NEVER expose the transceiver to rain, snow or any liquids. The transceiver may be damaged. NEVER operate or touch the transceiver with wet hands. This may result in an electric shock or damage the transceiver. NEVER place the transceiver where normal operation of the vehi- cle may be hindered or where it could cause bodily injury. NEVER let objects impede the operation of the cooling fan on the rear panel. DO NOT push the PTT when not actually desiring to transmit. DO NOT allow children to play with any radio equipment contain- ing a transmitter. During mobile operation, DO NOT operate the transceiver with- out running the vehicle's engine. When the transceiver's power is ON and your vehicle's engine is OFF, the vehicle's battery will soon become exhausted. AVOID using or placing the transceiver in direct sunlight or in areas with temperatures below -10°C or above +60°C. BE CAREFUL! The transceiver will become hot when operat- ing it continuously for long periods. AVOID setting the transceiver in a place without adequate venti- lation. Heat dissipation may be affected, and the transceiver may be damaged. AVOID the use of chemical agents such as benzine or alcohol when cleaning, as they can damage the transceiver's surfaces. USE Icom microphones only (supplied or optional). Other manu- facturer's microphones have different pin assignments and may damage the transceiver if attached. For USA only CAUTION: Changes or modifications to this device, not ex- pressly approved by Icom Inc., could void your authority to operate this device under FCC regulations. ii
