ergy during transmit mode. This radio is designed for and classified 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 in-

tended for use by the General Population in an uncontrolled environment. This radio has been tested and complies with the FCC RF expo-

sure limits for Occupational Use Only. In addition, your Icom radio complies with the following Standards and Guidelines with regard to RF energy and electromagnetic energy levels and evaluation of such levels for exposure to humans:

FCC OET Bulletin 65 Edition 97-01 Supplement C, Evaluating Compliance with FCC Guidelines for Human Exposure to Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Fields. American National Standards Institute (C95.1 1992), IEEE Stan-

dard for Safety Levels with Respect to Human Exposure to Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Fields, 3 kHz to 300 GHz. American National Standards Institute (C95.3 1992), IEEE Rec-

ommended Practice for the Measurement of Potentially Hazardous Electromagnetic Fields RF and Microwave. To ensure that your exposure to RF electromag-

netic energy is within the FCC allowable limits for occupational use, always adhere to the following 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 iii 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. ALWAYS use Icom authorized accessories (antennas, batteries, belt clips, speaker/mics, etc). Use of unauthorized accessories can cause the FCC RF exposure compliance requirements to be ex-

ceeded. ALWAYS keep the antenna at least 1 cm (0.4 inches) away from the body when transmitting to ensure FCC RF exposure compli-

ance requirements are not exceeded. To provide the recipients of your transmission the best sound quality, hold the antenna at least 5 cm (2 inches) from mouth, and slightly off to one side. The information listed above provides the user with the information needed to make him or her aware of RF exposure, and what to do to assure that this radio operates within the FCC RF exposure lim-

its of this radio. 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. iv TABLE OF CONTENTS FOREWORD . i INSTALLATION NOTES . i IMPORTANT . iii SAFETY TRAINING INFORMATION . iiiiv TABLE OF CONTENTS . v 1 ACCESSORIES . 1 2 PANEL DESCRIPTION . 24

Battery cautions CAUTION! NEVER short terminals (or charging terminals) of the battery pack. Also, current may flow into nearby metal objects such as a necklace, so be careful when placing battery packs (or the transceiver) in handbags, etc. Simply carrying with or placing near metal objects such as a neck-

lace, etc. causes shorting. This will damage not only the battery pack, but also the transceiver. NEVER incinerate used battery packs. Internal battery gas may cause an explosion. NEVER immerse the battery pack in water. If the battery pack be-

comes wet, be sure to wipe it dry BEFORE attaching it to the transceiver. Clean the battery terminals to avoid rust or miss contact. Keep battery contacts clean. Its a good idea to clean battery ter-

minals once a week. If your battery pack seems to have no capacity even after being charged, completely discharge it by leaving the power ON overnight. Then, fully charge the battery pack again. If the battery pack still does not retain a charge (or only very little charge), a new battery pack must be purchased.

Charging NOTE Prior to using the transceiver for the rst time, the battery pack must be fully charged for optimum life and operation. Recommended temperature range for charging:

+10C to +40C (50F to 140F). Use the supplied charger or optional charger (BC-119/BC-121 for rapid charging, BC-137 #02 for regular charging) only. NEVER use other manufacturers chargers. The optional BP-209 or BP-210 battery packs include rechargeable Ni-Cd (Ni-MH: BP-210) batteries and can be charged approx. 300 times. Charge the battery pack before rst operating the transceiver or when the battery pack becomes exhausted. If you want to charge the battery pack more than 300 times, the fol-

lowing points should be observed:

Avoid over charging. The charging period should be less than 48 hours. Use the battery until it becomes almost completely exhausted under normal conditions. We recommend battery charging after transmitting becomes impossible. DD Battery pack life When the operating period becomes extremely short, even after charging the battery pack fully, a new battery pack is needed. 9 3 BATTERY PACKS

Battery case (Option) When using an optional BP-208 BATTERY CASE attached to the transceiver, install 6 AA (R6) size alkaline batteries as illustrated below. DD CAUTION Use ALKALINE batteries only. Make sure all battery cells are the same brand, type and ca-

pacity. Never mix old and new batteries. Either of the above may cause a fire hazard or damage the transceiver if ignored. Never incinerate used battery cells since internal battery gas may cause them to rupture. Never expose a detached battery case to water. If the battery case gets wet, be sure to wipe it dry before use. 10 4 PROGRAMMABLE FUNCTIONS

DTMF PAGER/CODE SQUELCH DD DTMF pager This function uses DTMF tones for calling and can be used as a common pager to inform you that one of your group has called even if the operator is temporarily away from the transceiver. When the connection code is received, a beep sounds, then flashes and shows the called stations code number. The called stations code number is memorized automatically, and is easy to re-call with ID-MR select function. DD Code squelch This conveniently eliminates unwanted audio and is useful in group activities or security related activities where unwanted output can be a problem. The function is similar to a CTCSS tone squelch. In order to use the above functions, cloning is necessary via a PC using the optional CS-F30G CLONING SOFTWARE. Using this software, the transceivers model, individual RX Code CH, TX Code CH, Special Tone Link2 (must be E) in 5Tone screen, 5Tone Signaling Form in Memory-CH screen, Log, RX C-No, Key&Display, Common Auto Reset Timer B, and other settings related to operation can be set. Refer to the HELP le that comes with the CS-F30G CLONING SOFTWARE for available settings.
