served when operating this device. If you have any questions re-

garding RF exposure and safety standards please refer to the Federal Communications Commission Ofce of Engineering and Technologys report on Evaluating Compliance with FCC Guide-

lines for Human Radio frequency Electromagnetic Fields (OET Bulletin 65) RWARNING! NEVER connect the transceiver to an AC outlet. This may pose a re hazard or result in an electric shock. RWARNING! NEVER operate the transceiver while dri-

ving a vehicle. Safe driving requires your full attentionanything less may result in an accident. NEVER connect the transceiver to a power source of more than 16 V DC. This will ruin the transceiver. NEVER connect the transceiver to a power source using re-

verse 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. NEVER place the transceiver where normal operation of the vehicle may be hindered or where it could cause bodily injury. NEVER let objects impede the operation of the cooling fan on the rear panel. DO NOT push the PTT when not actually desiring to trans-

mit. DO NOT allow children to play with any radio equipment con-

taining a transmitter. During mobile operation, DO NOT operate the transceiver without running the vehicles engine. When the transceivers power is ON and your vehicles engine is OFF, the vehicles bat-

tery will soon become exhausted. BE CAREFUL! The transceiver will become hot when op-

erating it continuously for long periods. AVOID using or placing the transceiver in direct sunlight or in areas with temperatures below 10C (+14F) or above +60C

(+140F). AVOID the use of chemical agents such as benzine or alcohol when cleaning, as they can damage the transceivers surfaces. USE Icom microphones only (supplied or optional). Other man-

ufacturers microphones have different pin assignments and may damage the transceiver if attached. ii 1 PANEL DESCRIPTION I Front panel Function display (p. 00)

ommend the locations shown in the diagram below. NEVER place the transceiver where normal operation of the vehicle may be hindered or where it could cause bodily injury. NEVER place the transceiver where air bag deployment may be obstructed. DO NOT place the transceiver where hot or cold air blows di-

rectly onto it. AVOID placing the transceiver in direct sunlight.

Accordingly, 15.121 of the Commissions rules applies. The equipment under application herein is incapable of operating (tuning), or being readily altered by the user to operate within the frequency bands allocated to the Domestic Public cellular Radio Telecommunications Service (Cellular Radio Service). The equipment is also incapable of converting digital cellular transmissions to analog voice audio. The receiver portion of the equipment under application herein scans 136-174MHz, and the receiver does not scan the bands used by the Cellular Radio Service, 824-849 and 869-894MHz. The receiver portion of the equipment under application cannot be altered to enable it to scan the Cellular Radio Service bands by means of clipping the leads of or installing a diode, resistor and/or jumper wire, or other such simple component. Nor can the receiver be made to scan the Cellular Radio Service bans by replacing a plug-in semiconductor chip, since no such plug-in chips are utilized. The semiconductor chips that are utilized in the equipment cannot be erased and reprogrammed. The radio design of the tuning, control and filtering circuitry on the receiver is controlled by the serial data from the firmware code in the microprocessor, which is built-in by the microprocessor manufacture as a part of the internal design of the processor. Since the processor information is inaccessible to the user (Even Icom peoples), If the some one attempt modifying circuitry without the knowledge of the firmware code, the radio simply will fail to operate In view of the above, the equipment complies with 15.121 of the Commission rules.
