PRECAUTIONS RRDANGER HIGH RF VOLTAGE! NEVER touch an antenna or antenna connector while transmitting. This could cause an electrical shock or burn. RRWARNING! NEVER operate the transceiver during a lightning storm. It may result in an electric shock, cause a fire or damage the transceiver. Always disconnect the power source and antenna before a storm. RRWARNING! NEVER connect the transceiver to an AC outlet. This may pose a fire hazard and/or result in an electric shock. RRWARNING! NEVER mount the transceiver's main unit overhead. The weight of the main unit is approximately 8.6 kg, and it could easily fall due to wave shocks or vibration. The unit must be mounted on a flat hard surface only. RRWARNING! NEVER connect a power source of more than 12 V or 24 V DC (depending on the transceiver version). This connection could cause a fire or damage the transceiver. RRWARNING! NEVER place the transceiver where normal operation of the vessel may be hindered or where it could cause bodily injury. RRWARNING! NEVER let metal, wire, or other objects contact the transceiver inside or make incorrect contact with connectors on the front panel. This could cause an electric shock or damage the transceiver. CAUTION DO NOT reverse the DC power cable polarity. This could damage the transceiver. CAUTION: DO NOT use harsh solvents such as Benzine or alcohol when cleaning the equipment. This could damage the equipment surfaces. If the surface becomes dusty or dirty, wipe it clean with a soft, dry cloth. CAUTION: DO NOT use or leave the transceiver in areas with temperatures below −15°C or above +55°C, or in areas exposed to direct sunlight, such as the dashboard. CAUTION: DO NOT use or leave the transceiver in excessively dusty environments. CAUTION: DO NOT use a non-specified microphone. Other microphones may have different pin assignments and may damage the transceiver. NEVER place the transceiver in an insecure place to avoid inadvertent use by unauthorized persons. iii BE CAREFUL! The transceiver's main unit may become hot after continuously transmitting for long periods of time. BE CAREFUL! The remote controller's front panel meets IPX7 requirements for waterproof protection. However, once the remote controller has been dropped and cracked, or the waterproof seal is cracked or damaged, waterproof protection cannot be guaranteed. LLThe connectors on the rear panel do not meet IPX7. NOTE: Install the transceiver and microphone at a distance of more than 1 meter from the vessel's magnetic navigation compass. The LCD display may have cosmetic imperfections that appear as small dark or light spots. This is not a malfunction or defect, but a normal characteristic of LCD displays.
