VOICE CODING TECHNOLOGY
WORD DEFINITION
RDANGER! Personal death, serious injury or an explosion may occur.
RWARNING! Personal injury, re hazard or electric shock may occur.
CAUTION Equipment damage may occur.
NOTE If disregarded, inconvenience only. No risk of personal injury, re or electric shock.
RWARNING! NEVER connect the transceiver to an AC
outlet. This may pose a re hazard or result in an electric
shock.
RWARNING! NEVER operate the transceiver during a
lightning storm. It may result in an electric shock, cause a
re or damage the transceiver. Always disconnect the power
souce and antenna before a storm.
RWARNING! NEVER connect the transceiver to a power
source of more than 16 V DC such as a 24 V battery. This
could damage the transceiver.
RWARNING! NEVER cut the DC power cable between the
DC plug and fuse holder. If an incorrect connection is made
after cutting, the transceiver might 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 expose the transceiver to rain, snow or
any liquids.
CAUTION: CONFIRM that all connectors and jacks are
dry and clean before attachment. Exposing them to dust or
water will result in serious damage to the transceiver.
DO NOT place or leave the transceiver in areas with
temperatures below –30°C (–22°F) or above +60°C
(+140°F), or in areas subject to direct sunlight, such as the
dashboard.
DO NOT operate the transceiver without running the
vehicle’s engine. The vehicle’s battery will quickly run out
when the transceiver transmits while the vehicle’s engine is
OFF.
DO NOT place or leave the transceiver in excessively dusty
environments.
DO NOT place the transceiver against walls. Otherwise
heat dissipation will be obstructed.
DO NOT use harsh solvents such as Benzine or alcohol
when cleaning, as they damage the transceiver’s surfaces.
BE CAREFUL! The transceiver will become hot when
operating continuously for long periods.
USE the specied microphone only. Other microphones
have different pin assignments and may damage the radio.
Place the radio in a secure place to avoid inadvertent use
by unauthorized persons.
This transceiver has an air vent on the bottom panel of the
transceiver to meet the IP55 requirements.
BE CAREFUL! DO NOT block the air vent when installing
the transceiver.
PRECAUTIONS
A GPS receiver may not work if the radio transmits near 510 MHz. This problem is made in the internal circuit and does not indicate
a radio malfunction.
•Explicit Denitions
Icom is not responsible for the destruction or damage to
the Icom transceiver, if the malfunction is because of:
• Force majeure, including, but not limited to, res,
earthquakes, storms, oods, lightning, other natural
disasters, disturbances, riots, war, or radioactive
contamination.
• The use of Icom transceivers with any equipment that is
not manufactured or approved by Icom.
DISPOSAL
The crossed-out wheeled-bin symbol on your
product, literature, or packaging reminds you
that in the European Union, all electrical and
electronic products, batteries, and
accumulators (rechargeable batteries) must be
taken to designated collection locations at the
end of their working life. Do not dispose of these products
as unsorted municipal waste. Dispose of them according to
the laws in your area.

WARNING
Your Icom radio generates RF
electromagnetic energy during transmit
mode. This radio is designed for and
classied 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 Population” in an
uncontrolled environment.
• For compliance with FCC and IC RF Exposure
Requirements, the transmitter antenna installation shall
comply with the following three conditions:
1. The transmitter antenna gain shall not exceed 0 dBi.
2. IC-F5400D series:
The antenna is required to be located outside of a
vehicle and kept at a distance of 52 centimeters (21
inches) 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 center line
along the vehicle in order to achieve 52 centimeters
(21 inches) separation distance. In order to ensure this
distance is met, the installation of the antenna must
be mounted at least 52 centimeters (21 inches) away
from the nearest edge of the vehicle in order to protect
against exposure to bystanders.
2. IC-F6400D series:
The antenna is required to be located outside of a
vehicle and kept at a distance of 38 centimeters
(15 inches) 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 center line
along the vehicle in order to achieve 38 centimeters
(15 inches) separation distance. In order to ensure this
distance is met, the installation of the antenna must
be mounted at least 38 centimeters (15 inches) away
from the nearest edge of the vehicle in order to protect
against exposure to bystanders.
3. IC-F5400D series:
Transmit only when people outside the vehicle are
at least the recommended minimum distance of
125 centimeters (49 inches) away from the properly
installed antenna. This separation distance will
ensure that there is sufcient distance from a properly
installed externally-mounted antenna to satisfy the RF
exposure requirements in the applicable RF exposure
compliance standards.
3. IC-F6400D series:
Transmit only when people outside the vehicle are
at least the recommended minimum distance of
109 centimeters (43 inches) away from the properly
installed antenna. This separation distance will
ensure that there is sufcient distance from a properly
installed externally-mounted antenna to satisfy the RF
exposure requirements in the applicable RF exposure
compliance standards.
CAUTION
To ensure that your exposure to RF
electromagnetic energy is within the FCC
and IC allowable limits for occupational
use, always adhere to the following
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 and IC RF exposure limits. A
proper antenna is the antenna supplied with this radio by
the manufacturer or an antenna specically 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 and IC RF exposure compliance
requirements to be exceeded. The radio is transmitting
when the status indicator lights red. You can cause the
radio to transmit by pressing the “PTT” switch.
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.
