PRECAUTIONS

R DANGER! NEVER short the terminals of the battery pack.

R DANGER! Use and charge only specified Icom battery packs

with Icom radios or Icom chargers. Only Icom battery packs are
tested and approved for use with Icom radios or charged with Icom
chargers. Using third-party or counterfeit battery packs or chargers
may cause smoke, fire, 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. The transceiver will perform
best if the microphone is 5 to 10 cm away from the lips and the
transceiver is vertical.

R WARNING! NEVER operate the transceiver with a headset

or other audio accessories at high volume levels. Hearing experts
advise against continuous high volume operation. If you experience
a ringing in your ears, reduce the volume level or discontinue use.

R WARNING! NEVER operate the transceiver while driving a

vehicle. Safe driving requires your full attention—anything less may
result in an accident.

CAUTION: MAKE SURE the flexible antenna and battery pack

are securely attached to the transceiver, and that the antenna and
battery pack are dry before attachment. Exposing the inside of
the transceiver to water will result in serious damage to the trans­ceiver.

DO NOT operate the transceiver near unshielded electrical blast-

ing caps or in an explosive atmosphere.

DO NOT push [PTT] when not actually intending to transmit.

iii

DO NOT use or place the transceiver in direct sunlight or in areas

with temperatures below –25°C or above +55°C.

DO NOT modify the transceiver. The transceiver warranty does

not cover any problems caused by unauthorized modification.

DO NOT use harsh solvents such as benzine or alcohol when

cleaning, as they will damage the transceiver surfaces.

BE CAREFUL! The transceiver will become hot when operating

it continuously for long periods of time.

KEEP the transceiver away from heavy rain, and never immerse

it in the water. The transceiver meets IP54* requirements for dust­protection and splash resistance. However, once the transceiver
has been dropped, dust-protection and splash resistance cannot
be guaranteed because of possible damage to the transceiver’s
case or the waterproof seal.

* Only when the battery pack/case and jack cover are attached.

MAKE SURE to turn the transceiver power OFF before connect-

ing the supplied/optional equipment.

■ Call procedure

When your system employs tone signalling (excluding CTCSS and
DTCS), the tone call procedure may be necessary prior to voice
transmission. The tone signalling that is employed in the transceiver
may be a selective calling system, which allows you to call only
specific station(s), and prevent unwanted stations from contacting
you.

q Select a desired TX code channel or 2/5-tone code, according to

your System Operator’s instructions.

• This may not be necessary, depending on programming.

w Push [Call] (assigned to one of the dealer programmable keys.)

D Transmitting notes

• Transmit inhibit function

The transceiver has several inhibit functions, which restrict trans­mission under the following conditions:

- The channel is muted.

- The channel is busy.

- A signal with the un-matched (or matched) CTCSS (or DTCS) tone
is received.

- The selected channel is a ‘receive only’ channel.

• Time-out timer

After continuously transmitting longer than the pre-programmed time
period, the time-out timer activates, and stops further transmitting.

• Penalty timer

Once the time-out timer activates, transmitting is further inhibited for
a time period determined by the penalty timer.

• PTTID call

The transceiver automatically sends the ID code (5-tone, DTMF,
BIIS or dPMR operations) when [PTT] is pushed (beginning of the
transmission) and/or released (end of transmission), depending on
the presetting.

BATTERY CHARGING

■ Caution (for the BP-264 ni-m h b a t t e r y )

R DANGER! NEVER short terminals (or charging terminals) of the
battery pack. Also, current may flow into nearby metal objects such
as a necklace, so be careful when placing battery packs (or the
transceiver) in handbags, etc.
Simply carrying with or placing near metal objects such as a neck­lace, etc. may cause shorting. This may damage not only the bat­tery pack, but also the transceiver.
R DANGER! NEVER incinerate used battery packs. Internal bat-
tery gas may cause an explosion.
R DANGER! NEVER immerse the battery pack in water. If the bat-
tery pack becomes wet, be sure to wipe it dry BEFORE attaching
it to the transceiver.
CAUTION: Always use the battery within the specified temperature
range, –5˚C to +55˚C. Using the battery out of its specified temper­ature range will reduce the battery’s performance and battery life.
CAUTION: Shorter battery life could occur if the battery is left com­pletely discharged, or in an excessive temperature environment
(above +60˚C) for an extended period of time. If the battery must
be left unused for a long time, it must be detached from the radio
after charging. Keep it safely in a cool dry place at the following
temperature range:
–20˚C to +45˚C (up to a month)
–20˚C to +35˚C (up to six months)
–20˚C to +25˚C (up to a year*)

* We recommend charging the battery pack every 6 months.

Clean the battery terminals to avoid rust or misscontact.
Keep the battery terminals clean. It’s a good idea to clean the bat-

tery terminals once a week.

BATTERY CHARGING

5

1

If your Ni-MH battery pack seems to have no capacity, even after
being charged, completely discharge it by leaving the power ON
overnight. Then, fully charge the battery pack again. If the battery
pack still does not retain a charge (or only very little charge), a new
battery pack must be purchased. (p. 45)
Prior to using the transceiver for the first time, the battery pack
must be fully charged for optimum life and operation.

• Recommended temperature range for charging:

between +10°C and +40°C (rapid charge: with BC-191) or
between 0°C and +45°C (regular charge: with BC-192)

• Use the supplied charger or optional charger (BC-191 for rapid

charging, BC-192 for regular charging) only. NEVER use other
manufacturers’ chargers.

The battery pack contains a rechargable battery.
Charge the battery pack before first operating the transceiver, or
when the battery pack becomes exhausted.
If you want to prolong the battery life, the following points should
be observed:

• Avoid over charging. The charging time period by the BC-192

should be less than 48 hours.

• Use the battery pack until it becomes almost completely ex-

hausted, under normal conditions. We recommend battery charg­ing after transmitting becomes impossible.

Be careful! The negative

terminals of the battery case
protrude from the body, so
pay attention not to injure
your fingers when inserting
the batteries.

e Attach the battery case. (pp. 3, 4)

CAUTION:

• When installing batteries, make sure they are all the same

brand, type and capacity. Also, do not mix new and old batter­ies together.

• Keep the battery terminals clean. It’s a good idea to clean the

battery terminals once a week.

• Never incinerate used battery cells since internal battery gas

may cause them to rupture.

• Never expose a detached battery case to water. If the battery

case gets wet, be sure to wipe it dry before using it.

• Never use batteries whose insulated cover is damaged.

NOTE: When the optional battery case is attached, the battery
type must be selected as “Battery case operation” when turning
the transceiver ON. Ask your dealer for details. (p. 14)
