INSTRUCTION MANUALThis device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Op-eration is subject to the condition that this device does not cause harmful interference.iF9511HTVHF P25 TRUNKING MOBILE TRANSCEIVER

iiFCC INFORMATION• FOR CLASS B UNINTENTIONAL RADIATORS:This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential instal-lation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that inter-ference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equip-ment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the inter-ference by one or more of the following measures: • Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. • Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver. • Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected. • Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.ABOUT IPRThis device is made under license under one or more of the following U.S. Patents: #4,590,473; #4,636,791; #5,148,482; #5,185,796; #5,271,017; #5,377,229; #4,716,407; #4,972,460; #5,502,767; #5,146,497; #5,164,986; #5,185,795; #5,164,986, #5,185,795, and #5,146,497.* IPR means ‘Intellectual Property Rights.’VOICE CODING TECHNOLOGYThe AMBE+2™ voice coding Technology embodied in this product is protected by intellectual property rights including patent rights, copyrights and trade secrets of Digital Voice Systems, Inc.

iiiRWARNING! NEVER connect the transceiver to an AC outlet. This may pose a ﬁre hazard or result in an electric shock.RWARNING! 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.RWARNING! NEVER cut the DC power cable be-tween the DC plug and fuse holder. If an incorrect connection is made after cutting, the transceiver may be damaged.RWARNING! NEVER place the transceiver where normal operation of the vehicle may be hindered or where it could cause bodily injury.CAUTION! NEVER allow children to touch the trans-ceiver.CAUTION! NEVER expose the transceiver to rain, snow or any liquids. The transceiver may be damaged.USE the speciﬁed microphone only. Other microphones have different pin assignments and may damage the transceiver.DO NOT use or place the transceiver in areas with tem-peratures below –30°C (–22°F) or above +60°C (+140°F), or in areas subject to direct sunlight, such as the dashboard.DO NOT place the transceiver in excessively dusty envi-ronments.DO NOT operate the transceiver without running the ve-hicle’s engine. The vehicle’s battery will quickly run out if the transceiver transmits while the vehicle’s engine OFF.DO NOT place the transceiver against walls. This will ob-struct heat dissipation.DO NOT use chemical agents such as benzine or alcohol when cleaning, as they damage the transceiver surfaces.BE CAREFUL! The transceiver will become hot when operating continuously for long periods.KEEP the transceiver away from heavy rain, and never im-merse it in the water.When the supplied/optional microphone*, the front/rear plate(s) and the speaker jack cover of the controller are at-tached, the main unit and the controller meet IP54 require-ments for dust-protection and splash resistance.However, once these items have been dropped, dust-protec-tion and splash resistance cannot be guaranteed because of possible damage to these cases or the waterproof seal.* The microphone is not dust-protection and splash resistance.For U.S.A. onlyCAUTION: Changes or modiﬁcations to this transceiver, not expressly approved by Icom Inc., could void your authority to operate this transceiver under FCC regulations.PRECAUTIONS

235SAFETY TRAINING INFORMATIONW AR N IN GYour Icom radio generates RF electromagnetic en-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 intended for use by the “General Popula-tion” in an uncontrolled environment.• For compliance with FCC and Industry Canada RF Exposure Re-quirements, the transmitter antenna installation shall comply with the following two conditions: 1. The transmitter antenna gain shall not exceed 0 dBi. 2. IC-F9511HT: The antenna is required to be located outside of a vehicle and kept at a distance of 66.2 centimeters or more between the transmitting 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 66.2 centimeters separation distance. In order to ensure this dis-tance is met, the installation of the antenna must be mounted at least 66.2 centimeters away from the nearest edge of the vehicle in order to protect against exposure to bystanders. 3. Transmit only when people outside the vehicle are at least the recommended minimum distance of 148 centimeters away from the properly installed antenna. This separation distance will en-sure that there is sufﬁcient distance from a properly installed externally-mounted antenna to satisfy the RF exposure require-ments in the applicable RF exposure compliance standards.C AU TIO NTo 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:• 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 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 indicator” lights red. You can cause the radio to transmit by pressing the “PTT” switch.Electromagnetic Interference/CompatibilityDuring 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.
