R DANGER! NEVER 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.
R DANGER! NEVER operate the transceiver near
unshielded electrical blasting caps or in an explosive
atmosphere.
R DANGER! NEVER use and 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 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 use harsh solvents such as Benzine
or alcohol when cleaning, because they will damage the
transceiver surfaces.
PRECAUTIONS
CAUTION: DO NOT attach the battery unless the exible
antenna, battery pack and jack cover are securely attached
to the transceiver. Conrm that the antenna and battery
pack are dry before attaching. Exposing the inside of the
transceiver to dust or water can cause serious damage to
the transceiver.
CAUTION: DO NOT place or leave the transceiver in direct
sunlight or in places with temperatures below –20°C (–4°F)
or above +60°C (+140°F) for IC-M93D, and below –15°C
(–10°C for the Australian version) or above +55°C for the
IC-M93D EURO. The basic operations of the transceiver
are guaranteed within the specied operating temperature
range. However, the Liquid Crystal Display may not operate
correctly, or show an indication in the case of long hours of
operation, or after being placed in extremely cold areas.
CAUTION: DO NOT modify the transceiver. The
specications may change and then the transceiver may not
comply with the requirements of required regulations. The
transceiver warranty does not cover any problems caused by
unauthorized modication.
CAUTION: DO NOT operate the transceiver if it becomes
hot after operating it continuously for long periods of time.
This may damage the transceiver.
KEEP the transceiver and microphone at least 0.9 m (3 feet)
away from the vessel’s magnetic navigation compass.
