EXPLICIT DEFINITIONS
R
WARNING HIGH VOLTAGE! NEVER
at-
tach an antenna or internal antenna connector during
transmission. This may result in an electrical shock or
burn.
R
WARNING! NEVER
connect the transceiver to
an AC outlet directly. This may pose a fire hazard or
result in an electric shock.
R
WARNING! NEVER
mount the transceiver
main unit overhead. The weight of the unit is approxi-
mately 8.5 kg, but its apparent weight will increase
several fold due to wave shocks or vibration. The unit
must be mounted on a flat hard surface only.
R
NEVER
connect a power source of more than
15.6 V DC or 31.2 V DC
(depending on the transceiver
version)
. This connection could cause a fire or ruin the
transceiver.
R
NEVER
place the transceiver where normal oper-
ation of the ship or vehicle may be hindered or where it
could cause bodily injury.
R
NEVER
let metal, wire or other objects touch any
internal part or connectors on the rear panel of the
transceiver. This may result in an electric shock.
DO NOT
use chemical agents such as benzine or al-
cohol when cleaning, as they can damage the trans-
ceiver surface.
During maritime mobile operation,
KEEP
the trans-
ceiver and handset or microphone
as far away
as pos-
sible
(at least 1 m)
from the magnetic navigation
com-
pass
to prevent erroneous indications.
Use
Icom handset or microphones only
(supplied or op-
tional)
. Other manufacturer’s handset or microphones
have different pin assignments, and connection to the
IC-M801E may damage the transceiver.
AVOID
using or placing the transceiver in areas with
temperatures below –15°C or above +55°C.
AVOID
placing the transceiver in excessively dusty en-
vironments or in direct sunlight.
AVOID
placing the transceiver against walls or putting
anything on top of the transceiver. This will obstruct
heat dissipation.
Place the unit in a secure place to avoid inadvertent
use by children.
BE CAREFUL! The transceiver main unit will become
hot when operating the transceiver continuously for
long periods.
