DC battery system. Do not operate this unit with other battery
systems, especially an 18-volt or 24-volt DC or a positive ground

12-volt DC or purchase a separate inverter that will increase the
voltage to 12-volts. NOTE: The inverter needs to be rated at 10
amps or higher for the radio to operate properly.

use the unit where it will be exposed to moisture or excessive dust.

outside noises, such as emergency sirens and train crossing
warnings. Prolonged exposure to high volume levels may also
result in hearing loss.
