RWARNING! Personal injury, fire hazard or electric CAUTION shock may occur. Equipment damage may occur. If disregarded, inconvenience only. No risk of personal injury, fire or electric shock. NOTE i

* Different type may be supplied PRECAUTIONS R DANGER! NEVER short the terminals of the battery pack. Shorting may occur if the terminals touch metal objects such as a key, so be careful when placing the battery packs (or te transceiver) in bags, and so on. Carry them so that shorting cannot occur with metal objects. Shorting may damage not only the battery pack, but also the transceiver. R DANGER NEVER use or charge Icom battery packs with non-

Icom transceivers or non-Icom chargers. Only Icom battery packs are tested and approved for use with Icom transceivers or charged with Icom chargers. Using third-party or counterfeit battery packs or chargers may cause smoke, fire, or cause the battery to burst. R WARNING! 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 vertical. R WARNING! NEVER operate the transceiver with a headset or other audio accessories at high volume levels. The continuous high volume operation may cause a ringing in your ears. If you experience the ringing, reduce the volume level or discontinue use. R WARNING! NEVER operate the transceiver near unshielded electrical blasting caps or in an explosive atmosphere. CAUTION: DO NOT use harsh solvents such as benzine or alcohol when cleaning. This could damage the equipment surfaces. If the surface becomes dusty or dirty, wipe it clean with a soft, dry cloth. CAUTION: DO NOT place or leave the transceiver in excessively dusty environments. This could damage the transceiver. CAUTION: DO NOT expose the transceiver to heavy rain, and never immerse it in the water. The transceiver meets IP57 requirements for dust-protection and splash resistance. However, once the transceiver has been dropped, dust protection and splash resistance cannot be guaranteed due to the fact that the transceiver may be cracked, or the waterproof seal damaged, and so on. DO NOT place or leave the transceiver in direct sunlight or in areas with temperatures below XXC (XF) or above +XXC (+XXXF). Keep the transceiver in a secure place to prevent use by unauthorized persons.

Un court-circuit peut se produire si les bornes touchent des objets mtalliques, tels que des cls, faites donc attention lorsque vous rangez des blocs-batteries (ou lmetteur-

rcepteur) dans des sacs, etc. Transportez-les de telle sorte que des courts-circuits ne peuvent se produire avec des objets mtalliques.Car cela peut endommager le bloc-batterie ainsi que l'metteur-rcepteur. Utilisez et chargez uniquement les packs batterie Icom spcifis avec les terminaux Icom ou les chargeurs Icom. Seuls les packs batterie Icom sont tests et homologus pour une utilisation avec les terminaux Icom ou tre chargs avec les chargeurs Icom. L'utilisation de packs batterie ou de chargeurs tiers ou de contrefaon peut tre l'origine de fumes, d'incendie ou faire clater la batterie. R AVERTISSEMENT! NE JAMAIS tenir le terminal de communication avec l'antenne place proximit immdiate ou en contact avec des parties du corps exposes, en particulier le visage ou les yeux, lors des transmissions.Les performances de la radio sont optimales quand le microphone est tenu entre 5 et 10 cm de la bouche de lutilisateur et quand lappareil est vertical. R AVERTISSEMENT! NE JAMAIS utiliser l'metteur-rcepteur avec un casque ou tout autre accessoire audio un niveau sonore lev. Lutilisation continue un niveau sonore lev peut provoquer un bourdonnement dans vos oreilles. NE PAS utiliser l'metteur-rcepteur proximit de dtonateurs lectriques non blinds ou dans une atmosphre explosive. iii NE PAS utiliser de dissolvants agressifs tels que du Benzne ou de l'alcool lors du nettoyage, car ils endommageraient les surfaces de l'metteur-rcepteur. Si l'metteur-rcepteur est poussireux ou sale, nettoyez-le avec un tissu doux et sec. NE PAS placer l'metteur-rcepteur dans des environnements excessivement poussireux. Cela pourrait endommager l'metteur-

rcepteur. CONSERVEZ l'metteur-rcepteur l'abri des fortes pluies et ne le plongez jamais dans l'eau. Cet metteur-rcepteur rpond aux exigences de la norme IP57 en matire de protection contre la poussire et de rsistance aux claboussures. Cependant, en cas de chute de l'metteur-rcepteur, la protection contre la poussire et la rsistance aux claboussures ne peuvent plus tre garanties, car le boitier risque d'tre fissur ou le joint d'tanchit endommag, etc. NE PAS placer ou laisser lmetteur-rcepteur en plein soleil ou dans un environnement soumis des tempratures infrieures XX C ou suprieures +XX C. Placez lmetteur-rcepteur dans un lien sr pour viter toute utilisation par des personnes non autorises.
