IMPORTANT

OPERATIONAL NOTES

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS carefully before using

the IC-440N UHF TRANSCEIVER.

KEEP THIS INSTRUCTION MANUAL, as it

contains important operating information that may be useful in the future.

EXPLICIT DEFINITIONS

WORD DEFINITION

RDANGER!

RWARNING!

CAUTION

NOTE

Icom, Icom Inc. and the Icom logo are registered trademarks of Icom Incorporated (Japan) in Japan, the United States, the United Kingdom, Germany, France, Spain, Russia and/or other countries.

Personal death, serious injury or an explosion may occur.

Personal injury, fire hazard or electric shock may occur.

Equipment damage may occur.

If disregarded, inconvenience only. No risk of personal injury, ﬁ re or electric shock.

i. The use of the citizen band radio service is licenced in

Australia by the ACMA Radiocommunications (Citizens Band Radio Stations). Class Licence and in New Zealand by the Ministry of Economic Development (MED) General User Radio Licence for Citizen Band Radio and operation is subject to conditions contained within these licences.

ii. Always listen on a channel (or observe channel busy indi-

cator) to ensure it is not already being used before transmitting.

iii. In Australia, channel 11 is the customary calling channel

for establishing communication. Channel 40 is the customary road vehicle channel.

iv.

In Australia, except in an emergency, a CB transmitter shall not be operated on UHF emergency channels 5 and 35.

v. No voice transmissions are permitted on data channels 22

and 23 (voice operation is inhibited on these channels).

vi. The user of this UHF CB communications device shall not

transmit selcall tones for longer than 3 seconds during any 60 second period.

OPERATIONAL NOTES

PRECAUTIONS

vii. UHF CB repeaters provide greater range through a base

station that re-transmits signals. Repeaters operate utilising two channels (repeater input/repeater output). It is important to avoid operation on locally used repeater input channels (which will be in the channel range 31 to 38 and 71 to 78, when they are authorised) or locally used repeater receiving channels (in the channel range 1 to 8 and 41 to 48, when they are authorised), unless long distance communication via the repeater facility is speciﬁ cally required. See the section on repeater operation for more information.

iix. Please be aware that the UHF CB network may experi-

ence possible operational issues during the changeover to narrowband. This transceiver operates on 12.5 kHz channel spacing. During the changeover period from 25 kHz to

12.5 kHz spacing, there may be some loss of quality when

12.5 kHz (narrowband, 2.5 kHz deviation) transmissions are received on 25 kHz (wide band, 5.0 kHz deviation) equipment, and vice-versa. There may also be interference due to older equipment being operated on channels adjacent to new narrowband channels, as the channel setting on these may cause some ‘overlap’. A list of currently authorised channels can be found on the ACMA website (Australia) and on the MED website in New Zealand.

R WARNING! NEVER connect the transceiver to an

AC outlet. This may pose a ﬁ re hazard or result in an electric shock.

NEVER connect the transceiver to a power source of more

than 27.6 V DC. This will damage the transceiver.

NEVER connect the transceiver to a power source using

reverse polarity. This will damage the transceiver.

NEVER cut the DC power cable between the DC plug and

fuse holder. If an incorrect connection is made after cutting, the transceiver may be damaged.

NEVER expose the transceiver and microphone to rain,

snow or any liquids. The transceiver and microphone may be damaged.

NEVER operate or touch the transceiver and microphone

with wet hands. This may result in an electric shock or damage the transceiver and microphone.

NEVER place the transceiver where normal operation of the

vehicle may be hindered or where it could cause bodily injury.

DO NOT push the PTT when not actually desiring to transmit. DO NOT allow children to play with any radio equipment

containing a transmitter.

PRECAUTIONS

(Continued)

DO NOT operate the transceiver near unshielded electri-

cal blasting caps or in an explosive atmosphere.

DO NOT operate the transceiver for extended periods

without running the vehicle’s engine. The transceiver’s power consumption may soon exhaust the vehicles battery.

DO NOT set the transceiver in a place without adequate

ventilation. Heat dissipation may be affected, and the transceiver may be damaged.

DO NOT use the chemical agents such as benzine or al-

cohol when cleaning, as they can damage the transceiver’s surfaces.

USE Icom microphones only (supplied or optional). Other

manufacturer’s microphones have different pin assignments and may damage the transceiver if attached.

DO NOT modify the transceiver. The transceiver warranty

does not cover any problems caused by unauthorized modiﬁ cation.

DO NOT use harsh solvents such as benzine or alcohol

when cleaning, as they will damage the transceiver surfaces.

DO NOT use or place the transceiver in direct sunlight

or in areas with temperatures below –10°C or above +60°C. The basic operations, transmission and reception of the transceiver are guaranteed within the speciﬁ ed operating temperature range. However, the LCD display may not be operate correctly, or show an indication in the case of long hours of operation, or after being placed in extremely cold areas.

BE CAREFUL! The transceiver will become hot when

operating it continuously for long periods of time.

MAKE SURE to turn OFF the transceiver power before

connecting the supplied/optional equipment.

This device complies with Standard Australia

Speciﬁ cation No. AS/NZS 4365-2011.

ANTENNA INFORMATION

For radio communications, the antenna is of critical importance, to maximize your output power and receiver sensitivity. The transceiver accepts a 50  antenna and a less than 1:1.5 Voltage Standing Wave Ratio (VSWR). High SWR values not only may damage the transceiver, but also lead to TVI or BCI problems.

BASIC OPERATION

Turning power ON ■

Hold down q for 2 seconds to turn ON the power. If the transceiver is programmed with a start-up password, w this needs to be entered before the transceiver can be operated.

• The keys in the table below can be used for password input:

• The transceiver detects numbers in the same block, as identical. Therefore “01234” and “56789” are the same.
