2 INSTALLATION AND CONNECTIONS Using the desktop stands Heat dissipation The transceiver has legs for desktop use. zzPull-out the legs on both sides until they lock in place. NOTE: DO NOT hold the stand, dials and controls when you carry the transceiver. This may damage them. Selecting a location Select a location for the transceiver that allows adequate air circulation, free from extreme heat, cold or vibrations, and other electromagnetic sources. Never place the transceiver in areas such as: ••Temperatures below 0°C (+32°F) or above +50°C (+122°F). ••An unstable place that slopes or vibrates. ••In direct sunlight. ••High humidity and temperature environments. ••Dusty environments. ••Noisy environments. ••NEVER install the transceiver in a place without adequate ventilation.

Selecting a location
Select a location for the transceiver that allows
adequate air circulation, free from extreme heat, cold
or vibrations, and other electromagnetic sources.
Never place the transceiver in areas such as:
• Temperatures below 0°C (+32°F) or above +50°C
(+122°F).
• An unstable place that slopes or vibrates.
• In direct sunlight.
• High humidity and temperature environments.
• Dusty environments.
• Noisy environments.
Heat dissipation
Grounding
To prevent electrical shock,
television interference (TVI),
broadcast interference (BCI)
and other problems, ground
the transceiver using the
ground terminal [GND] on
the rear panel.
For best results, connect a
heavy gauge wire or strap to
a long ground rod. Make the
distance between the [GND]
terminal and ground as short
as possible.
R
WARNING! NEVER
connect the [GND] terminal
to a gas or electric pipe, since the connection could
cause an explosion or electric shock.
•
NEVER
install the transceiver in a place without
adequate ventilation. Heat dissipation may be
reduced, and the transceiver may be damaged.
•
DO NOT
place the transceiver against walls or put
anything on top of the transceiver. This may block
airflow and overheat the transceiver.
•
DO NOT
touch the rear panel after transmitting
continuously for long periods of time. The panel may
become hot.
Using the desktop stands
The transceiver has legs for desktop use.
z
Pull-out the legs on both sides until they lock in
place.
Connecting an external DC power supply
Be sure that the power supply power is OFF before
connecting the DC power cable.
We recommend using Icom’s optional PS-126
(13.8 V DC/25 A) power supply.
CAUTION:
DO NOT
touch
the rear panel of
the transceiver
after transmitting
continuously
for long periods
of time. It can
become very hot.
L
When using a non-Icom DC power supply, you need:
• 13.8 V DC (Capacity: At least 23 A)
• A power supply with an over current protective line and
low voltage fluctuation or ripple.
