PRECAUTIONS
R CAUTION! NEVER hold the transceiver so that the an-
tenna is very close to, or touching exposed parts of the body, espe-
cially 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.
R CAUTION! NEVER operate the transceiver with a head-
set or other audio accessories at high volume levels.
R CAUTION! NEVER short the terminals of the battery
pack.
DO NOT push [PTT] when not actually desiring to transmit.
AVOID using or placing the transceiver in direct sunlight or in
areas with temperatures below –25°C or above +55°C.
The basic operations, transmission and reception of the transceiver
are guaranteed within the specified operating temperature range.
DO NOT modify the transceiver for any reason.
Optional unit installation should be done at an authorized Icom ser-
vice center only.
KEEP the transceiver from heavy rain, and never immerse it in
the water. The transceiver construction is water resistant, not wa-
terproof.
The use of non-Icom battery packs/chargers may impair transceiver
performance and invalidate the warranty.
