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.
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 connect the transceiver to a power source that is
DC fused at more than 5 A. Accidental reverse connection will
be protected by this fuse, but higher fuse values will not give
any protection against such accidents and the transceiver will
be ruined.
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.
DO NOT push the PTT when not actually desiring to trans-
mit.
Place the unit in a secure place to avoid inadvertent use by
children.
DO NOT operate the transceiver near unshielded electrical
blasting caps or in an explosive atmosphere.
AVOID using or placing the transceiver in direct sunlight or
in areas with temperatures below –10°C (+14˚F) or above
+60°C (+140˚F).
The use of non-Icom battery packs/chargers may impair
transceiver performance and invalidate the warranty.
Even when the transceiver power is OFF, a slight current still
flows in the circuits. Remove the battery pack or case from
the transceiver when not using it for a long time. Otherwise,
the battery pack or installed Ni-Cd batteries will become ex-
hausted.
For USA 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.

CAUTION
To ensure that your exposure to RF electromagnetic en-
ergy is within the FCC allowable limits, always adhere to
the following guidelines:
• DO NOT operate the radio without a proper antenna at-
tached, 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 specifically 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 indica-
tor” is lit. You can cause the radio to transmit by pressing
the “PTT” switch.
• ALWAYS use Icom authorized accessories (antennas, bat-
teries, belt clips, speaker/mics, etc.). Use of unauthorized
accessories can cause the FCC RF exposure compliance
requirements to be exceeded.
• ALWAYS keep the antenna at least 2.5 cm (1 inch) away
from the body when transmitting, and only use the Icom
belt-clips which are listed in this manual when attaching the
radio to your belt, etc. To provide the recipients of your
transmission the best sound quality, hold the antenna at
least 5 cm (2 inches) from your 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 ex-
posure, and what to do to assure that this radio operates
within the FCC RF exposure limits of this radio. Electro-
magnetic Interference/Compatibility. During transmis-
sions, your Icom radio generates RF energy that can
possibly cause interference with other devices or sys-
tems. 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 electromag-
netic radiation such as hospitals, aircraft, and blasting
sites.

QUICK REFERENCE GUIDE
■Your first contact
Now that you have your IC-V82 ready, you are exited to get
on the air. We would like to walk you through a few basic op-
erational steps to make your first “On The Air” use an enjoy-
able experience.
DAbout default setting
The [VOL] control function can be traded with [YY]/[ZZ]keys func-
tion in
INITIAL SET MODE
. However, in this QUICK REFERENCE,
the factory default setting ([VOL] controls audio output level) is
used for simple instructions.

battery pack or counterfeit product is used/charged.
• CAUTION! NEVER short the terminals of the battery pack
(or charging terminals of the transceiver). 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
necklace, 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 becomes wet, be sure to wipe it dry BEFORE attach-
ing it to the transceiver.
• Clean the battery terminals to avoid rust or poor contact.
• Keep battery contacts clean. It’s a good idea to clean bat-
tery terminals 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 (p. 70).
■Charging NOTE
Prior to using the transceiver for the first time, the battery
pack must be fully charged for optimum life and operation.
• Recommended temperature range for charging:
+10°C to +40°C (; +50˚F to 140˚F)
• Use the supplied charger or optional charger (BC-119N/121N/144N
for rapid charging, BC-146 for regular charging) only. NEVER use
other manufacturers’ chargers.
The optional BP-222N, BP-209N, BP-210N or BP-211N bat-
tery packs include rechargeable batteries (Ni-Cd: BP-222N,
BP-209N, Ni-MH: BP-210N, Li-Ion: BP-211N) and can be
charged approx. 300 times. Charge the battery pack before
first operating the transceiver or when the battery pack be-
comes exhausted.
If you want to charge the battery pack more than 300 times,
the following points should be observed:
• Avoid over charging. The charging period should be less than
24 hours.
• Use the battery until it becomes almost completely exhausted
under normal conditions. We recommend battery charging after
transmitting becomes impossible.
DDBattery pack life
When the operating period becomes extremely short even
after charging the battery pack fully, a new battery pack is
needed.

■Battery charging
DRegular charging with the BC-146
The optional BC-146 provides regular charging of an optional
NI-Cd battery pack with/without transceiver. The following is
additionally required:
• An optional AC adapter. (An AD-99N is supplied with BC-146.)
DAbout AD-99N
Attach the spacer (Spacer B/C) to the adapter (Spacer A) with
orientation as illustrated in the diagram below.
• Attach the spacer (Spacer B/C) to the adapter with the orientation of
the stamp “ ” pointing up.
When removing the spacer (Spacer B/C),
push the notch care-
fully with your finger to remove the spacer (Spacer B/C) from
the adapter (Spacer A).
RCAUTION!
DO NOT push or force the notch with a screw driver, etc., to
remove it.
DO NOT bend the notch when the adapter and spacer are not
joined together. This will cause weakening of the notch plastic.
Both cases may break the notch and it may not be able to be
reattached.
Push the notch
carefully.
Remove the spacer (Spacer B/C)
from the adapter.
Check orienta-
tion for correct
charging. (In-
sert together
with AD-99N.)
Turn power OFF.

• Chargeable battery
BP-209N, BP-222N
Recommendation:
Charge the BP-211N (Li-Ion) by BC-119N (or BC-121N) for
a maximum of 2 hours. Li-Ion batteries are different from Ni-
Cd batteries in that it is not necessary to completely charge
and discharge them to prolong the battery life. Therefore,
charging the battery in intervals, and not for extended peri-
ods is recommended.

■Programmed scan
Programmed scan repeatedly scans between two user pro-
grammed frequencies (memory channels “1A–3A” and
“1b–3b”) or scans between upper and lower band edges. This
scan is useful for checking for signals within a specific fre-
quency range such as repeater output frequencies, etc.
Scans between lower (start) and high (stop) frequency.
