R DANGER HIGH VOLTAGE! NEVER touch an an-
tenna connector during transmission. This may result in an
electrical shock or burn.
R WARNING RF EXPOSURE! This transceiver emits
Radio Frequency (RF) energy. Extreme caution should be ob-
served when operating this transceiver. If you have any ques-
tions regarding RF exposure and safety standards please
refer to the Federal Communications Commission Office of
Engineering and Technology’s report on Evaluating Compli-
ance with FCC Guidelines for Human Radio Frequency Elec-
tromagnetic Fields (OET Bulletin 65).
R WARNING! NEVER operate the transceiver while
driving a vehicle. Safe driving requires your full attention—
anything less may result in an accident.
R WARNING! NEVER operate the transceiver with an
earphone or other audio accessories at high volume levels.
Continuous high volume operation may cause a ringing in
your ears. If you experience ringing, reduce the volume level
or discontinue use.
R WARNING! NEVER connect the transceiver to an AC
outlet. This may pose a fire hazard or result in an electric
shock.
R WARNING! NEVER connect the transceiver to a
power source of more than 16 V DC such as a 24 V DC. This
could cause a fire or damage the transceiver.
R WARNING! NEVER reverse the DC power cable po-
larity when connecting to a power source. This could damage
the transceiver.
R WARNING! NEVER cut the DC power cable between
the DC plug and fuse holder. If an incorrect connection is
made after cutting, the transceiver may be damaged.
R WARNING! NEVER let metal, wire or other objects
touch any internal part or connectors on the rear panel of the
transceiver. This may result in an electric shock or this could
cause a fire or damage the transceiver.
R WARNING! NEVER operate or touch the transceiver
with wet hands. This may result in an electric shock or may
damage the transceiver.
R WARNING! Immediately turn OFF the transceiver pow-
er and remove the power cable if it emits an abnormal odor,
sound or smoke. Contact your Icom dealer or distributor for
advice.
CAUTION: NEVER expose the transceiver to rain, snow
or any liquids.
PRECAUTIONS
iii
New2001 New2001
CAUTION: NEVER change the internal settings of the
transceiver. This may reduce transceiver performance and/or
damage to the transceiver.
CAUTION: NEVER place the transceiver where normal
operation of the vehicle may be hindered or where it could
cause bodily injury.
DO NOT operate the transceiver near unshielded electrical
blasting caps or in an explosive atmosphere.
DO NOT push the PTT when not actually desiring to trans-
mit.
DO NOT use harsh solvents such as benzine or alcohol to
clean the transceiver, as they will damage the transceiver’s
surfaces. If the transceiver becomes dusty or dirty, wipe it
clean with a soft, dry cloth.
DO NOT use or place the transceiver in areas with tem-
peratures below –10°C (+14°F) or above +60°C (+140°F). Be
aware that temperatures on a vehicle’s dashboard can exceed
+80°C (+176°F) in direct sunlight, resulting in permanent dam-
age to the transceiver if left there for extended periods.
DO NOT place the transceiver in excessively dusty environ-
ments or in direct sunlight.
DO NOT place the transceiver against walls or putting anything
on top of the transceiver. This will obstruct heat dissipation.
Place the transceiver in a secure place to avoid inadvertent
use by children.
During mobile operation, NEVER place the transceiver
where air bag deployment may be obstructed.
During mobile operation, DO NOT place the transceiver
where hot or cold air blows directly onto it.
During mobile operation, DO NOT operate the transceiver
without running the vehicle’s engine. When the transceiver’s
power is ON and your vehicle’s engine is OFF, the vehicle’s
battery will soon become exhausted.
Make sure the transceiver power is OFF before starting the
vehicle engine. This will avoid possible damage to the trans-
ceiver by ignition voltage spikes.
During maritime mobile operation, keep the transceiver and
microphone as far away as possible from the magnetic navi-
gation compass to prevent erroneous indications.
BE CAREFUL! The rear panel will become hot when op-
erating the transceiver continuously for long periods of time.
Use Icom microphones only (supplied or optional). Other
manufacturer’s microphones have different pin assignments,
and may damage the transceiver.

General description ■
The transceiver has a total of 1000 Memory channels (100
channels in each of 10 memory banks, A to J) and two Call
channels (C0/C1) for the 144 and 430 MHz bands.
The Memory mode is useful to quickly select often-used fre-
quencies.
