AC outlet. This may pose a fire hazard or result in an electric
shock.
R
WARNING! NEVER
connect the transceiver to a
power source of more than 16 V DC such as a 24 V battery.
This connection will ruin the transceiver.
R

cut the DC power cable be-
tween the DC plug and fuse holder. If an incorrect connection
is made after cutting, the transceiver might be damaged.

place the transceiver where
normal operation of the vehicle may be hindered or where it
could cause bodily injury.
CAUTION! NEVER
allow children to touch the trans-
ceiver.
CAUTION! NEVER
expose the transceiver to rain,
snow or any liquids.
USE
the specified microphone only. Other microphones
have different pin assignments and may damage the trans-
ceiver.

use or place the transceiver in areas with tem-
peratures below –25°C or above +55°C, or in areas subject to
direct sunlight, such as the dashboard.

operate the transceiver without running the ve-
hicle’s engine. The vehicle’s battery will quickly run out if the
transceiver transmits while the vehicle’s engine OFF.
DO NOT
place the transceiver in excessively dusty envi-
ronments.
DO NOT
place the transceiver against walls. This will ob-
struct heat dissipation.
DO NOT
use chemical agents such as benzine or alcohol
when cleaning, as they damage the transceiver surfaces.
BE CAREFUL!
The transceiver will become hot when
operating continuously for long periods.
Approved Icom optional equipment is designed for optimal
