NSPECTION
Inspect the transceiver visually immediately upon opening the packing carton. Confirm
that all controls and switches work freely, and inspect the cabinet for any damage. Gently
shake the transceiver to verify that no internal components have been shaken loose due to
rough handling during shipping.
If any evidence of damage is discovered, document it thoroughly and contact the shipping
company (or your local dealer, if the unit was purchased over-the-counter) so as to get
instructions regarding the prompt resolution of the damage situation. Be certain to save the
shipping carton, especially if there are any punctures or other evidence of damage incurred
during shipping. If it is necessary to return the unit for service or replacement, use the
original packing materials. Then put the entire package inside another packing carton to
preserve the evidence of shipping damage for insurance purposes.

To ensure long life of the components, be certain to provide adequate ventilation around the
cabinet of the
FTM-10R
.
Do not install the transceiver on top of another heat-generating device (such as a power
supply or amplifier). Avoid heating vents and window locations that could expose the trans-
ceiver to excessive direct sunlight, especially in hot climates. The
FTM-10R
should not be
used in an environment where the ambient temperature e140 °F (+60 °C).
