PRECAUTIONS
DANGER! NEVER short the terminals of the battery
R
pack.
DANGER! Use and charge only specified Icom battery
R
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.
WARNING! NEVER hold the transceiver so that
R
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.
WARNING! NEVER operate the transceiver with
R
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.
WARNING! NEVER operate the transceiver while
R
driving a vehicle. Safe driving requires your full attention—
anything less may result in an accident.
CAUTION: MAKE SURE the flexible antenna, bat-
tery pack and jack cover are securely attached to the transceiver, and that the antenna and battery pack are dry before
attachment. Exposing the inside of the transceiver to dust or
water will result in serious damage to the transceiver.
DO NOT operate the transceiver near unshielded electri-
cal blast ing caps or in an explosive atmosphere.
DO NOT push [PTT] when not actually intending to transmit.
DO NOT use or place the transceiver in direct sunlight or in
areas with temperatures below –25°C or above +55°C.
The basic operations, transmission and reception of the transceiver are guaranteed within the specified 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.
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.
ii
PRECAUTIONS (Continued)
VOICE CODING TECHNOLOGY
BE CAREFUL! The transceiver meets IP67 require-
ments for dust-tight and waterproof protection. However, once
the transceiver has been dropped, dust-tight and waterproof
protection cannot be guaranteed because of possible damage to the transceiver’s case or the waterproof seal.
Even when the transceiver power is OFF, a slight current still
flows in the circuits. Remove the battery pack or batteries from
the trans ceiver when not using it for a long time. Otherwise,
the installed battery pack or batteries will become exhausted,
and will need to be recharged or replaced.
MAKE SURE to turn OFF the transceiver power before
connect ing the supplied/optional equipment.
For IC-F4262
• The GPS receiver may not work if the transceiver transmits
near the 510 MHz. This is made in the internal circuit and
does not indicate a transceiver malfunction.
