■ PRECAUTIONS
R WARNING! NEVER use or charge Icom
battery packs with non-Icom transceivers
or non-Icom chargers. Only Icom battery
packs are tested and approved for use with
Icom transceivers or charged with Icom
chargers. Using third-party or counterfeit
battery packs or chargers may cause
smoke, re, or cause the battery to burst.
R 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.
R WARNING! NEVER operate the
transceiver with a headset or other
audio accessories at high volume levels.
The continuous high volume operation
may cause a ringing in your ears. If you
experience the ringing, reduce the volume
level or discontinue use.
CAUTION: DO NOT short the terminals of
the battery pack. Shorting may occur if the
terminals touch metal objects such as a
key, so be careful when placing the battery
packs (or the transceiver) in bags, and so
on. Carry them so that shorting cannot
occur with metal objects. Shorting may
damage not only the battery pack, but also
the transceiver.
CAUTION: DO NOT use harsh solvents
such as Benzine or alcohol when cleaning.
This could damage the equipment
surfaces. If the surface becomes dusty or
dirty, wipe it clean with a soft, dry cloth.
CAUTION: DO NOT place or leave
the transceiver in excessively dusty
environments. This could damage the
transceiver.
NOTE: DO NOT place or leave the
transceiver in direct sunlight or in areas
outside of the specied temperature range:
IC-M37: –20°C (–4˚F) ~ +60°C (+140˚F)
IC-M37(CHN)/IC-M37E:
–15°C (5˚F) ~ +55°C (131˚F)
IC-M37E(AUS):
–10°C (14˚F) ~ +55°C (131˚F)
Keep the transceiver in a secure place to
prevent use by unauthorized persons.
BE CAREFUL! The transceiver meets
IPX7* requirements for waterproof
protection. However, once the transceiver
has been dropped, or the waterproof seal is
cracked or damaged, waterproof protection
cannot be guaranteed because of possible
damage to the transceiver’s case or the
waterproof seal.
* Only when the supplied battery pack
or case, antenna, and jack cover are
attached.

destruction, damage to, or performance
of any Icom or non-Icom equipment, if

• Force majeure, including, but not
limited to, res, earthquakes, storms,
oods, lightning, other natural disasters,
disturbances, riots, war, or radioactive
contamination.
• The use of Icom transceivers with any
