INSTRUCTION MANUAL VHF MOBILE TRANSCEIVER iF5061 iF5063 UHF MOBILE TRANSCEIVER iF6061 iF6063 IMPORTANT READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS carefully and com-

pletely before using the transceiver. SAVE THIS INSTRUCTION MANUAL This instruction manual contains important operating instructions for the IC-F5061, IC-F5063, IC-F6061 and IC-F6063 VHF/UHF MOBILE TRANSCEIVERS. EXPLICIT DEFINITIONS WORD RWARNING CAUTION NOTE DEFINITION Personal injury, re hazard or electric shock may occur. Equipment damage may occur. If disregarded, inconvenience only. No risk of personal injury, re or electric shock. See the operating guide for details of BIIS, MDC and LTR system operations. Ask your dealer for details. Icom, Icom Inc. and the logo are registered trademarks of Icom Incorporated (Japan) in the United States, the United Kingdom, Germany, France, Spain, Russia and/or other countries. LTR is a registered trademark of the E.F.Johnson Company. All other products or brands are registered trademarks or trademarks of their respective holders. i PRECAUTIONS RWARNING! NEVER connect the transceiver to an AC outlet. This may pose a re hazard or result in an electric shock. NEVER connect the transceiver to a power source of more than 16 V DC such as a 24 V battery. This connection 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 might be damaged. NEVER place the transceiver where normal operation of the vehicle may be hindered or where it could cause bodily injury. NEVER allow children to touch the transceiver. NEVER expose the transceiver to rain, snow or any liquids. USE the specified microphone only. Other microphones have different pin assignments and may damage the trans-

ceiver. DO NOT use or place the transceiver in areas with tem-

peratures below 30C (22F) or above +60C (+140F), or in areas subject to direct sunlight, such as the dashboard. AVOID operating the transceiver without running the vehi-

cles engine. The vehicles battery will quickly run out if the transceiver transmits while the vehicles engine OFF. AVOID placing the transceiver in excessively dusty envi-

ronments. AVOID placing the transceiver against walls. Otherwise heat dissipation will be obstructed. AVOID the use of chemical agents such as benzine or alcohol when cleaning, as they damage the transceiver sur-

faces. BE CAREFUL! The transceiver will become hot when operating continuously for long periods. For U.S.A. only CAUTION: Changes or modifications to this transceiver, not ex-

pressly approved by Icom Inc., could void your authority to operate this transceiver under FCC regulations.

w If the transceiver is programmed for a start up password,

] to turn the power ON. input the digit codes as directed by your dealer. The keys as below can be used for password input:

The transceiver detects numbers in the same block as identical. Therefore 01234 and 56789 are the same. KEY NUMBER 0 5 1 6 2 7 3 8 4 9 e When the PASSWORD indication does not clear after inputting 6 digits, the input code number may be incorrect. Turn the power off and start over in this case. BASIC OPERATION 2 I Channel selection Several types of channel selections are available. Methods may differ according to your system set up. NON-ZONE TYPE:

The tone signalling employed may be a selec-

tive calling system which allows you to call specic station(s) only and prevent unwanted stations from contacting you. q Select the desired TX code channel, 2/5-tone code or Talkgroup ID code* according to your System Operators instructions. This may not be necessary depending on programming. Refer to pgs. 1012 for selection.

This radio is designed for and 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. W ARNING For compliance with FCC and Industry Canada RF Exposure Requirements, the transmitter antenna installation shall comply with the following two conditions:

1. The transmitter antenna gain shall not exceed 0 dBi. 2. IC-F5061:

The antenna is required to be located outside of a vehicle and kept at a distance of 48 centimeters or more between the trans-

mitting 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 centre line along the vehicle in order to achieve 48 centimeters separation distance. In order to ensure this distance is met, the installation of the antenna must be mounted at least 48 centimeters away from the nearest edge of the vehicle in order to protect against exposure to bystanders. 2. IC-F6061:

The antenna is required to be located outside of a vehicle and kept at a distance of 38 centimeters or more between the trans-

mitting 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 centre line along the vehicle in order to achieve 38 centimeters separation distance. In order to ensure this distance is met, the installation of the antenna must be mounted at least 38 centimeters away from the nearest edge of the vehicle in order to protect against exposure to bystanders. To ensure that your exposure to RF electromag-

netic energy is within the FCC allowable limits for occupational use, always adhere to the fol-

lowing guidelines:

CAU TION DO NOT operate the radio without a proper antenna attached, as this may damage the radio and may also cause you to exceed FCC 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 RF exposure compliance requirements to be exceeded. The radio is transmitting when the TX 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.
