PRECAUTIONS

RWARNING RF EXPOSURE! This device emits

Radio Frequency (RF) energy. Extreme caution should be ob-

served when operating this device. If you have any questions

regarding RF exposure and safety standards please refer to

the Federal Communications Commission Office of Engi-

neering and Technology’s report on Evaluating Compliance

with FCC Guidelines for Human Radio frequency Electro-

magnetic Fields (OET Bulletin 65)

RWARNING! NEVER connect the transceiver to an AC

outlet. This may pose a ﬁre hazard or result in an electric shock.

NEVER connect a power supply of more than 16 V DC

through the optional CP-19R ^{CIGARETTE LIGHTER CABLE}to the

[DC 11V] jack to prevent damaging the transceiver.

NEVER connect the transceiver to a power source using

reverse polarity. This 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 may be damaged.

RWARNING! 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

(2 to 4 inches) away from the lips and the transceiver is verti-

cal.

NEVER expose the transceiver to rain, snow or any liquids.

The transceiver may be damaged.

NEVER operate or touch the transceiver with wet hands.

This may result in an electric shock or ruin the transceiver.

RWARNING! NEVER operate the transceiver with a

headset or other audio accessories at high volume levels.

Hearing experts advise against continuous high volume op-

eration. If you experience a ringing in your ears, reduce the

volume or discontinue use.

NEVER attempt to charge alkaline or dry cell batteries. Be

aware that external DC power connections will charge batter-

ies inside the battery case. This will damage not only the bat-

tery case but also the transceiver.

RWARNING! NEVER operate the transceiver while

driving a vehicle. Safe driving requires your full attention—

anything less may result in an accident.

DO NOT push the PTT when not actually desiring to trans-

mit.

BATTERY PACKS

■ Cautions

• R DANGER! DO NOT expose the battery to rain, snow,

seawater, or any other liquids. Do not charge or use a wet

battery. If the battery gets wet, be sure to wipe it dry before

using.

Misuse of Lithium-Ion batteries may result in the follow-

ing hazards: smoke, fire, or the battery may rupture.

Misuse can also cause damage to the battery or degra-

dation of battery performance.

• R DANGER! NEVER incinerate an used battery pack since

internal battery gas may cause it to rupture, or may cause

an explosion.

• R DANGER! Use and charge only specified Icom battery

packs with Icom radios. Only Icom battery packs are tested

and approved for use with Icom radios. Using third-party or

counterfeit battery packs may cause smoke, ﬁre, or cause

the battery to burst.

• R DANGER! NEVER solder the battery terminals, or

NEVER modify the battery pack. This may cause heat gen-

eration, and the battery may burst, emit smoke or catch ﬁre.

• R DANGER! Use the battery only with the transceiver for

which it is specified. Never use a battery with any other

equipment, or for any purpose that is not speciﬁed in this in-

struction manual.

D Battery caution

• R DANGER! DO NOT hammer or otherwise impact the bat-

tery. Do not use the battery if it has been severely impacted

or dropped, or if the battery has been subjected to heavy

pressure. Battery damage may not be visible on the outside

of the case. Even if the surface of the battery does not show

cracks or any other damage, the cells inside the battery may

rupture or catch ﬁre.

• R DANGER! If fluid from inside the battery gets in your

eyes, blindness can result. Rinse your eyes with clean

water, without rubbing them, and see a doctor immediately.

• WARNING! Immediately stop using the battery if it emits an

abnormal odor, heats up, or is discolored or deformed. If any

of these conditions occur, contact your Icom dealer or dis-

tributor.

• R DANGER! NEVER use or leave battery pack in areas

with temperatures above +60˚C (+140˚F). High temperature

build up in the battery, such as could occur near fires or

stoves, inside a sun heated car, or in direct sunlight may

cause the battery to rupture or catch ﬁre. Excessive temper-

atures may also degrade battery performance or shorten

battery life.

• WARNING! Immediately wash, using clean water, any part

of the body that comes into contact with ﬂuid from inside the

battery.

BATTERY PACKS 3

D Charging caution

• WARNING! NEVER put the battery in a microwave oven,

high-pressure container, or in an induction heating cooker.

This could cause a ﬁre, overheating, or cause the battery to

rupture.

• R DANGER! NEVER charge the battery pack in areas with

extremely high temperatures, such as near ﬁres or stoves,

inside a sun heated car, or in direct sunlight. In such envi-

ronments, the safety/protection circuit in the battery will acti-

vate, causing the battery to stop charging.

• CAUTION! Always use the battery within the speciﬁed tem-

perature range for the transceiver (–10˚C to +60˚C; +14˚F

to +140˚F) and the battery itself (–10˚C to +60˚C; +14˚F to

+140˚F). Using the battery out of its speciﬁed temperature

range will reduce the battery’s performance and battery life.

• WARNING! DO NOT charge or leave the battery in the bat-

tery charger beyond the specified time for charging. If the

battery is not completely charged by the speciﬁed time, stop

charging and remove the battery from the battery charger.

Continuing to charge the battery beyond the speciﬁed time

limit may cause a ﬁre, overheating, or the battery may rup-

ture.

• CAUTION! Shorter battery life could occur if the battery is

left fully charged, completely discharged, or in an excessive

temperature environment (above +45˚C; +113˚F) for an ex-

tended period of time. If the battery must be left unused for a

long time, it must be detached from the radio after discharg-

ing. You may use the battery until the battery becomes

about half-capacity, then keep it safely in a cool dry place

with the temperature between –20˚C to +35˚C (–4˚F to

+95˚F).

• WARNING! NEVER insert the transceiver (battery attached

to the transceiver) into the charger if it is wet or soiled. This

could corrode the battery charger terminals or damage the

charger. The charger is not waterproof.

• CAUTION! DO NOT charge the battery outside of the spec-

iﬁed temperature range: 10˚C to +40˚C (+50˚F to +104˚F).

Icom recommends charging the battery at +20˚C (+68˚F).

The battery may heat up or rupture if charged out of the

specified temperature range. Additionally, battery perfor-

mance or battery life may be reduced.

taining a matching subaudible tone. You can wait for calls

from group members using the same tone and not hear other

signals.

NOTE: The transceiver has 50 tone frequencies and con-

sequently their spacing is narrow compared to units having

38 tones. Therefore, some tone frequencies may receive

interference from adjacent tone frequencies.

To prevent interference from adjacent tone frequencies,

using the frequencies as in the following table, is recom-

mended.
