PRECAUTIONS (Continued)
DO NOT
push the PTT when not actually desiring to transmit.
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.
DO NOT
use or place the transceiver in areas with tempera-
tures below –10°C (+14°F) or above +60°C (+140°F). Be aware
that temperatures on a vehicle’s dashboard can 80°C
(+176°F) in direct sunlight, resulting in permanent damage to the
transceiver if left there for extended periods.
DO NOT
place the transceiver in excessively dusty environments
or in direct sunlight.
DO NOT
place the transceiver against walls or putting anything on
top of the transceiver. This will obstruct heat dissipation.
Place the transceiver in a secure place to avoid inadvertent use
by children.
During mobile operation,
NEVER
place the transceiver where air
bag deployment may be obstructed.
During mobile operation,
DO NOT
place the transceiver where
hot or cold air blows directly onto it.
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.
Make sure the transceiver power is OFF before starting the ve-
hicle engine. This will avoid possible damage to the transceiver
by ignition voltage spikes.
During maritime mobile operation, keep the transceiver and mi-
crophone as far away as possible from the magnetic navigation
compass to prevent erroneous indications.
BE CAREFUL!
The rear panel will become hot when operating
the transceiver continuously for long periods of time.
Use Icom microphones only (supplied or optional). Other manu-
facturer’s microphones have different pin assignments, and may
damage the transceiver.
