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.
CAUTION: NEVER
connect the transceiver to a power
source other than the specified battery pack/case. Such a
connection will ruin the transceiver.
DO NOT
use or place the transceiver in direct sunlight
or in areas with temperatures below –15°C or above +55°C:
Marine, below –25°C or above +55°C: PMR.
KEEP
the transceiver out of the reach of children.
KEEP
the transceiver at least 0.9 meter away from your
vessel’s magnetic navigation compass.
BE CAREFUL!
The transceiver meets IPX7* require-
ments for waterproof protection. However, once the trans-
ceiver has been dropped, waterproof protection cannot be
guaranteed because of possible damage to the transceiver's
case or the waterproof seal.
* Only when the battery pack, flexible antenna, [SP MIC] jack cover
is attached.
MAKE SURE
the flexible antenna and battery pack are
securely attached to the transceiver, and that the antenna
and battery pack are dry before attachment. Exposing the in-
side of the transceiver to water will result in serious damage
to the transceiver.
After exposure to water, clean the battery contacts thor-
oughly with fresh water and dry them completely to remove
any water or salt residue.
