PRECAUTIONS RWARNING! NEVER connect the transceiver to an AC outlet. This may pose a fire hazard or result in an electric shock. RWARNING! NEVER connect the transceiver to an external DC power supply directly. The transceiver should be connected to the DC power supply through the PS-310 that is sold by the set with this transceiver. Be sure to not connect with reverse polarity. PS-310's version Input voltage #01 21.6 ~ 31.2 V DC #02 10.8 ~ 15.6 V DC Output voltage 12.6 V DC 12.6 V DC RWARNING! NEVER cut the DC power cable between the DC plug at the back of the transceiver and fuse holder. If an incorrect connection is made after cutting, the transceiver may be damaged. RWARNING! 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 souce and antenna before a storm. CAUTION: NEVER place the transceiver where normal operation of the vessel may be hindered, or where it could cause bodily injury. KEEP the transceiver and microphone at least 1 m away from the vessel's magnetic navigation compass. DO NOT place or leave the transceiver in areas with temperatures below -15°C or above +55°C, or in areas subject to direct sunlight, such as a dashboard. DO NOT use harsh solvents such as benzine or alcohol to clean the transceiver, as they will damage the transceiver's surfaces. If the transceiver becomes dusty or dirty, wipe it clean with a soft, dry cloth. iii BE CAREFUL! The transceiver rear panel will become hot when operating continuously for long periods of time. Place the transceiver in a secure place to avoid inadvertent use by children. BE CAREFUL! The transceiver's front panel meets IPX7* requirements for waterproof protection. However, once the front panel has been dropped, or the waterproof seal is cracked or damaged, waterproof protection cannot be guaranteed because of possible damage to the case or the waterproof seal. *The connectors on the rear panel do not meet IPX7. If the front panel is exposed to saltwater, BE SURE TO CLEAN IT THOROUGHLY WITH FRESH WATER when the front panel's waterproof protection is effective. Otherwise, the keys and switch may become inoperable due to salt crystallization. Icom is not responsible for the destruction or damage to the Icom transceiver, if the malfunction is because of: • Force majeure, including, but not limited to, fires, earthquakes, storms, floods, lightnings, or other natural disasters, disturbances, riots, war, or radioactive contamination. • The use of Icom transceiver with any equipment that is not manufactured or approved by Icom.
