READ ALL PRECAUTIONS carefully and completely
before using this product.
PRECAUTIONS
R WARNING! NEVER connect the transceiver to an AC
outlet. This may pose a re hazard or result in an electric
shock.
R WARNING! NEVER operate the transceiver during a
lightning storm. It may result in an electric shock, cause a
re or damage the transceiver. Always disconnect the power
souce and antenna before a storm.
R WARNING! NEVER connect the transceiver to a power
source of more than 16 V DC such as a 24 V battery. This
could damage the transceiver.
R WARNING! 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.
R WARNING! NEVER place the transceiver where normal
operation of the vehicle may be hindered or where it could
cause bodily injury.
CAUTION: NEVER expose the transceiver to rain, snow or
any liquids.
CAUTION: CONFIRM that all connectors and jacks are
dry and clean before attachment. Exposing them to dust or
water will result in serious damage to the transceiver.
DO NOT place or leave the transceiver in areas with
temperatures below –30°C (–22°F) or above +60°C
(+140°F), or in areas subject to direct sunlight, such as the
dashboard.
DO NOT operate the transceiver without running the
vehicle’s engine. The vehicle’s battery will quickly run out
when the transceiver transmits while the vehicle’s engine is
OFF.
DO NOT place or leave the transceiver in excessively dusty
environments.
DO NOT place the transceiver against walls. Otherwise
heat dissipation will be obstructed.
DO NOT use harsh solvents such as Benzine or alcohol
when cleaning, as they damage the transceiver’s surfaces.
BE CAREFUL! The transceiver will become hot when
operating continuously for long periods.
USE the specied microphone only. Other microphones
have different pin assignments and may damage the radio.
Place the radio in a secure place to avoid inadvertent use
by unauthorized persons.
This transceiver has an air vent on the bottom panel of the
transceiver to meet the IP55 requirements.
BE CAREFUL! DO NOT block the air vent when installing
the transceiver.
Icom is not responsible for the destruction or damage to
the Icom transceiver, if the malfunction is because of:
• Force majeure, including, but not limited to, res,
earthquakes, storms, oods, lightning, other natural
disasters, disturbances, riots, war, or radioactive
contamination.
• The use of Icom transceivers with any equipment that is
not manufactured or approved by Icom.

SAFETY TRAINING INFORMATION
FCC INFORMATION
VOICE CODING TECHNOLOGY
Your Icom radio generates RF
electromagnetic energy during transmit
mode. This radio is designed for and
WARNING
• For compliance with FCC and IC RF Exposure
Requirements, the transmitter antenna installation shall
comply with the following three conditions:
1. The transmitter antenna gain shall not exceed 0 dBi.
2. IC-F7510:
The antenna is required to be located outside of a
vehicle and kept at a distance of 57 centimeters (23
inches) or more between the transmitting antenna
of this device and any persons during operation. For
small vehicle as worst case, the antenna shall be
located on the roof top at any place on the center line
along the vehicle in order to achieve 57 centimeters
(23 inches) separation distance. In order to ensure this
distance is met, the installation of the antenna must
be mounted at least 57 centimeters (23 inches) away
from the nearest edge of the vehicle in order to protect
against exposure to bystanders.
2. IC-F7520:
The antenna is required to be located outside of a
vehicle and kept at a distance of 42 centimeters
(17 inches) or more between the transmitting antenna
of this device and any persons during operation. For
small vehicle as worst case, the antenna shall be
located on the roof top at any place on the center line
along the vehicle in order to achieve 42 centimeters
(17 inches) separation distance. In order to ensure this
distance is met, the installation of the antenna must
be mounted at least 42 centimeters (17 inches) away
from the nearest edge of the vehicle in order to protect
against exposure to bystanders.
3. IC-F7510:
Transmit only when people outside the vehicle are
at least the recommended minimum distance of
136 centimeters (54 inches) away from the properly
installed antenna. This separation distance will
ensure that there is sufcient distance from a properly
installed externally-mounted antenna to satisfy the RF
exposure requirements in the applicable RF exposure
compliance standards.
3. IC-F7520:
Transmit only when people outside the vehicle are
at least the recommended minimum distance of
119 centimeters (47 inches) away from the properly
installed antenna. This separation distance will
ensure that there is sufcient distance from a properly
installed externally-mounted antenna to satisfy the RF
exposure requirements in the applicable RF exposure
compliance standards.
classied as “Occupational Use Only”,
meaning it must be used only during the
course of employment by individuals aware
of the hazards, and the ways to minimize
such hazards. This radio is NOT intended
for use by the “General Population” in an
uncontrolled environment.
To ensure that your exposure to RF
electromagnetic energy is within the FCC
and IC allowable limits for occupational
CAUTION
• DO NOT operate the radio without a proper antenna
attached, as this may damage the radio and may also
cause you to exceed FCC and IC RF exposure limits. A
proper antenna is the antenna supplied with this radio by
the manufacturer or an antenna specically authorized by
the manufacturer for use with this radio.
• DO NOT transmit for more than 50% of total radio use
time (“50% duty cycle”). Transmitting more than 50% of
the time can cause FCC and IC RF exposure compliance
requirements to be exceeded. The radio is transmitting
when the status indicator lights red. You can cause the
radio to transmit by pressing the “PTT” switch.
Electromagnetic Interference/Compatibility
During transmissions, your Icom radio generates RF energy
that can possibly cause interference with other devices or
systems. To avoid such interference, turn off the radio in
areas where signs are posted to do so. DO NOT operate
the transmitter in areas that are sensitive to electromagnetic
radiation such as hospitals, aircraft, and blasting sites.
use, always adhere to the following
guidelines:
• FOR CLASS A UNINTENTIONAL RADIATORS:
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with
the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to part 15
of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful interference when
the equipment is operated in a commercial environment.
This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio
frequency energy and, if not installed and used in
accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful
interference to radio communications. Operation of this
equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful
interference in which case the user will be required to
correct the interference at his own expense.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
Operation is subject to the condition that this device does
not cause harmful interference.
CAUTION:
Changes or modications to this transceiver, not expressly
approved by Icom Inc., could void your authority to operate
this transceiver under FCC regulations.
