Precautions
The
FTA-230
is apparatus is capable of two-way
communication on channels used for critical avia-
tion safety communications. Therefore, it is impor-
tant that this radio be kept away from children or
other unauthorized users at all times.
When making DC connections via the (optional)
E-
DC-5B
DC cable, be absolutely certain to observe
the proper voltage level and polarity guidelines. Do
not connect this radio directly to any 24 ~ 28 Volt
DC source, nor to AC power of any kind. Connecting
the
FTA-230
directly to a source which exceeds 15.0
Volts DC will result in damage to the unit. The Lim-
ited Warranty for this product does not cover dam-
age caused by the application of improper voltage.
Do not dispose of the Ni-MH Battery Pack in a fire.
Do not carry a Ni-MH Battery Pack in your pocket,
where keys or coins could short the terminals. This
could create a serious fire/burn danger, and possibly
cause damage to the Ni-MH pack.
Although the
FTA-230
is designed to be Submers-
ible (3 ft., 30 min.), its enclosure is not designed to
guarantee protection from ingress of water under
extreme pressure. Do not allow the radio to become
submerged in deep water, and do not subject it to
water spray under pressure.
Battery Installation and Removal
To install the battery, hold the transceiver with your
left hand, so your palm is over the speaker and your
thumb is on the top of the Belt Clip. Insert the bat-
tery pack into the battery compartment on the back
of the radio while tilting the Belt Clip outward, then
close the Battery Pack Latch until it locks in place
with a “Click.”
To remove the battery, turn the radio off and remove
any protective cases. Open the Battery Pack Latch
on the bottom of the radio, then slide the battery
downward and out from the radio while unfolding
the Belt Clip.
Do not attempt to open any of the recharge-
able Ni-MH packs, as personal injury or dam-
age to the Ni-MH pack could occur if a cell or cells
become accidentally short-circuited.
