 DANGER

Do not use the device in “locations or aircraft and vehicles 

where its use is prohibited” such as in hospitals and 

aeroplanes.

This may exert an impact on electronic and medical devices.

Never touch the antenna during transmission.

This may result in injury, electric shock and equipment failure.

Do not transmit in crowded places in consideration of 

people who are fitted with medical devices such as heart 

pacemakers.

Electromagnetic waves from the device may affect the medical 

device, resulting in accidents caused by malfunctions.

Do not operate the device when flammable gas is generated.

Doing so may result in fire and explosion.

Use good engineering, proper grounding and protective 

devices to protect the repeater from power surges, lightening 

and electrical damage via the power and external antenna 

connections.

Otherwise when it thunders, immediately disconnect the 

external antenna from the repeater and shut OFF the power 

supply.

If not, fire, electric shock and equipment failure this may result.

Do not touch any liquid leaking from the liquid display with 

your bare hands.

There is a risk of chemical burns occurring when the liquid comes 

into contact with the skin or gets into the eyes. In this case, seek 

medical treatment immediately.

 WARNING

Do not use voltages other than the specified power supply 

voltage.

Doing so may result in fire and electric shock.

Do not transmit continuously for long periods of time.

This may cause the temperature of the main body to rise and 

result in burns and failures due to overheating.

Do not dismantle or modify the device.

This may result in injury, electric shock and equipment failure.

Do not handle the power plug and connector etc. with wet 

hands. Also do not plug and unplug the power plug with wet 

hands.

This may result in injury, electric shock and equipment failure.

When smoke or strange odors are emitted from the radio, 

turn off the power and disconnect the power cord from the 

socket.

This may result in fire, liquid leak, overheating, damage, ignition 

and equipment failure. Please contact our company amateur 

customer support or the retail store where you purchased the 

device.

Keep the power plug pins and the surrounding areas clean 

at all times.

This may result in fire, overheating, breakage, ignition etc.

Do not place the device in areas that may get wet easily (e.g. 

near a humidifier).

This may result in fire, electric shock and equipment failure.

When connecting a DC power cord, pay due care not to mix 

up the positive and negative polarities.

This may result in fire, electric shock and equipment failure.

Do not use power cords other than the one enclosed or 

specified.

This may result in fire, electric shock and equipment failure.

Do not bend, twist, pull, heat and modify the power cord and 

connection cables in an unreasonable manner.

This may cut or damage the cables and result in fire, electric 

shock and equipment failure.

Do not pull the cable when plugging and unplugging the 

power cord and connection cables.

Please hold the plug or connector when unplugging. If not, this 

may result in fire, electric shock and equipment failure.

Do not use the device when the power cord and connection 

cables are damaged, and when the power connector cannot
