R
DANGER! NEVER
short the terminals of the bat-
tery pack. Also, current may flow into nearby metal objects
such as a key, so be careful when placing the battery packs
(or the transceiver) in handbags, etc. Simply carrying with
or placing near metal objects such as a key, etc. may cause
shorting. This may damage not only the battery pack, but also
the transceiver.
R
DANGER!
Use and charge only specified Icom
battery packs with Icom transceivers or Icom chargers. Only
Icom battery packs are tested and approved for use with Icom
transceivers 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 transceiver so that
the antenna is very close to, or touching exposed parts of
the body, especially the face or eyes, while transmitting. The
transceiver will perform best if the microphone is 5 to 10 cm
away from the lips and the transceiver is vertical.
R
WARNING! NEVER
operate the transceiver with
a headset or other audio accessories at high volume levels.
The continuous high volume operation may cause a ringing
in your ears. If you experience the ringing, reduce the volume
level or discontinue use.
R
WARNING! NEVER
operate the transceiver while
driving a vehicle. Safe driving requires your full attention—
anything less may result in an accident.
CAUTION: MAKE SURE
the flexible antenna, bat-
tery pack and jack cover are securely attached to the trans-
ceiver, and that the antenna and battery pack are dry before
attachment.
Exposing the inside of the transceiver to dust or water will
result in serious damage to the transceiver.
DO NOT
operate the transceiver near unshielded electri-
cal blasting caps or in an explosive atmosphere.
DO NOT
use harsh solvents such as benzine or alcohol
when cleaning, as they will damage the transceiver surfaces.
DO NOT
push [PTT] when you do not actually intend to trans-
mit.
DO NOT
use or place the transceiver in direct sunlight or in
areas with temperatures below –25°C or above +55°C.
