Icom strongly suggests that the customer have their
dealer or Icom distributor, for a reasonable fee, in-
stall Icom options at the time of the order. Icom un-
derstands that even the simplest of installations de-
mands the judgment of a trained Icom technician.
Therefore, Icom will not be responsible for damage
to the optional unit, or subsequent damage to the
transceiver due to user installation problems. The
option’s or the transceiver’s Warranty can be voided
in such situations, at the sole judgment of Icom.
For those customers who still wish to install their
own options, knowing the risks and possible conse-
quences, the following information is provided for
information purposes only.
