DANGER!
Use and charge only specified Icom battery
packs with Icom radios or Icom chargers. Only Icom battery
packs are tested and approved for use with Icom radios or
charged with Icom chargers. Using third-party or counterfeit
battery packs or chargers may cause smoke, fire, or cause
the battery to burst.
R
WARNING! NEVER
hold the radio so that the an-
tenna is very close to, or touching exposed parts of the body,
especially the face or eyes, while transmitting. The radio will
perform best if the microphone is 5 to 10 cm (2 to 4 in.) away
from the lips and the radio is vertical.
R
WARNING! NEVER
operate the radio with a headset
or other audio accessories at high volume levels. The contin-
uous high volume operation may cause a ringing in your ears.
If you experience the ringing, reduce the volume level or dis-
continue use.
R
WARNING! NEVER
operate the radio while driving
a vehicle. Safe driving requires your full attention—anything
less may result in an accident.
CAUTION: NEVER
use non-specified accessories and
options. Using them invalidates the transceivers FM approval.
