This service manual describes the latest service information
for the IC-M604 VHF MARINE TRANSCEIVER at the time
of publication.
NEVER connect the transceiver to an AC outlet or to a DC
power supply that uses more than 15.6 V. This will ruin the
transceiver.
DO NOT expose the transceiver to rain, snow or any liquids.
DO NOT reverse the polarities of the power supply when
connecting the transceiver.
DO NOT apply an RF signal of more than 20 dBm (100

transceiver’s front end.
To upgrade quality, any electrical or mechanical parts and
internal circuits are subject to change without notice or
obligation.
