NOTICES TO THE USER

◆ Government law prohibits the operation of unlicensed radio transmitters within the territories under government control.

◆ Illegal operation is punishable by fine or imprisonment or both.

◆ Refer service to qualified technicians only.

SAFETY: It is important that the operator is aware of, and understands, hazards common to the operation of any transceiver.

PRECAUTIONS

• Do not charge the transceiver and battery pack when they are wet.

• Ensure that there are no metallic items located between the transceiver and the battery pack.

• Do not use options not specified by KENWOOD.

• If the die-cast chassis or other transceiver part is damaged, do not touch the damaged parts.

• If a headset or headphone is connected to the transceiver, reduce the transceiver volume. Pay attention to the volume level when turning the squelch off.

• Do not place the microphone cable around your neck while near machinery that may catch the cable.

• Do not place the transceiver on unstable surfaces.

• Ensure that the end of the antenna does not touch your eyes.

• When the transceiver is used for transmission for many hours, the radiator and chassis will become hot. Do not touch these locations when replacing the battery pack.

• Do not immerse the transceiver in water.

• Always switch the transceiver power off before installing optional accessories.

Turn the transceiver power off in the following locations:

• In explosive atmospheres (inflammable gas, dust particles, metallic powders, grain powders, etc.).

• While taking on fuel or while parked at gasoline service stations.

• Near explosives or blasting sites.

• In aircrafts.

• In medical institutions or near persons using pacemakers.

• Do not disassemble or modify the transceiver for any reason.

• Do not place the transceiver on or near airbag equipment while the vehicle is running. When the airbag inflates, the transceiver may be ejected and strike the driver or passengers.

• Do not transmit while touching the antenna terminal or if any metallic parts are exposed from the antenna covering. Transmitting at such a time may result in a high-frequency burn.

• If an abnormal odor or smoke is detected coming from the transceiver, switch the transceiver power off immediately, remove the battery pack from the transceiver, and contact your KENWOOD dealer.

• Use of the transceiver while you are driving may be against traffic laws. Please check and observe the vehicle regulations in your area.

• Do not expose the transceiver to extremely hot or cold conditions.

• Do not carry the battery pack (or battery case) with metal objects, as they may short the battery terminals.

• When operating the transceiver in areas where the air is dry, it is easy to build up an electric charge (static electricity). When using an earphone accessory in such conditions, it is possible for the transceiver to send an electric shock through the earphone and to your ear. We recommend you use only a speaker/microphone in these conditions, to avoid electric shocks.
