RWARNING! NEVER connect the transceiver to an
AC outlet. This may pose a fire hazard or result in an electric
shock.
NEVERconnect the transceiver to a power source of more
than 16 V DC such as a 24 V battery.This connection will ruin
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 might be damaged.
NEVER place the transceiver where normal operation of
the vehicle may be hindered or where it could cause bodily
injury.

DO NOT use or place the transceiver in areas with tem-
peratures below –30°C or above +60°C or, in areas subject
to direct sunlight, such as the dashboard.
AVOID operating the transceiver without running the vehi-
cle’s engine. The vehicle’s battery will quickly run out if the
transceiver is in transmission while the vehicle’s engine is
OFF.
AVOID placing the transceiver in excessively dusty envi-
ronments.
AVOID placing the transceiver against walls. This will ob-
struct heat dissipation.
AVOID the use of chemical agents such as benzine or al-
cohol when cleaning, as they damage the transceiver surfaces.
BE CAREFUL! The transceiver will become hot when
operating continuously for long periods.
For U.S.A. only
CAUTION: Changes or modifications to this transceiver, not expressly approved by Icom Inc., could void your authority to operate
this transceiver under FCC regulations.
