INSTRUCTION MANUALiM88VHF MARINE TRANSCEIVERThis device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is sub-ject to the follow two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmfulinterference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received,including interference that may cause undesired operation.IC-M88-draft.qxd 02.9.26 2:44 PM Page A (1,1)
SAFETY TRAINING INFORMATIONYour Icom radio generates RF electromagnetic energy duringtransmit mode. This radio is designed for and classified as“Occupational Use Only”, meaning it must be used only duringthe course of employment by individuals aware of the haz-ards, and the ways to minimize such hazards. This radio isNOT intended for use by the “General Population” in an un-controlled environment.This radio has been tested and complies with the FCC RF exposure limits for“Occupational Use Only”. In addition, your Icom radio complies with the follow-ing Standards and Guidelines with regard to RF energy and electromagneticenergy levels and evaluation of such levels for exposure to humans:• FCC OET Bulletin 65 Edition 97-01 Supplement C, Evaluating Compliancewith FCC Guidelines for Human Exposure to Radio Frequency Electro-magnetic Fields.• American National Standards Institute (C95.1-1992), IEEE Standard forSafety Levels with Respect to Human Exposure to Radio Frequency Elec-tromagnetic Fields, 3 kHz to 300 GHz.• American National Standards Institute (C95.3-1992), IEEE RecommendedPractice for the Measurement of Potentially Hazardous ElectromagneticFields– RF and Microwave.To ensure that your expose to RF electromagnetic en-ergy is within the FCC allowable limits for occupationaluse, always adhere to the following guidelines:• DO NOT operate the radio without a proper antenna at-tached, as this may damaged the radio and may also causeyou to exceed FCC RF exposure limits. A proper antenna is the antenna sup-plied with this radio by the manufacturer or antenna specifically authorized bythe manufacturer for use with this radio.CAUTIONWARNING• DO NOT transmit for more than 50% of total radio use time (“50% dutycycle”). Transmitting more than 50% of the time can cause FCC RF expo-sure compliance requirements to be exceeded. The radio is transmittingwhen the “TX indicator” lights red. You can cause the radio to transmit bypressing the “PTT” switch.• ALWAYS use Icom authorized accessories (antennas, batteries, belt clips,etc.). Use of unauthorized accessories can cause the FCC RF exposurecompliance requirements to be exceeded.• ALWAYS keep the antenna at least 2.5 cm (1 inch) away from the bodywhen transmitting and only use the Icom belt-clips which are listed onpage 25 when attaching the radio to your belt, etc., to ensure FCC RF ex-posure compliance requirements are not exceeded. To provide the recipi-ents of your transmission the best sound quality, hold the antenna at least5 cm (2 inches) from your mouth, and slightly off to one side.The information listed above provides the user with the information needed tomake him or her aware of RF exposure, and what to do to assure that this radiooperates with the FCC RF exposure limits of this radio.Electromagnetic Interference/CompatibilityDuring transmissions, your Icom radio generates RF energy that can possiblycause 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 operatethe transmitter in areas that are sensitive to electromagnetic radiation such ashospitals, aircraft, and blasting sites.iIC-M88-draft.qxd 02.9.26 2:44 PM Page ii (1,1)
iiIN CASE OF EMERGENCYIf your vessel requires assistance, contact other vessels andthe Coast Guard by sending a distress call on Channel 16.❍USING CHANNEL 16DISTRESS CALL PROCEDURE1. “MAYDAY MAYDAY MAYDAY.”2. “THIS IS ...........................” (name of vessel)3. Your call sign or other indication of the ves-sel.4. “LOCATED AT .....................” (your position)5. The nature of the distress and assistance re-quired.6. Any other information which might facilitatethe rescue.RECOMMENDATIONCLEAN THE TRANSCEIVER THOROUGHLY WITH FRESHWATER after exposure to salt water.Otherwise, the transceiver’s keys, switches and controllersmay become inoperable due to salt crystallization.IC-M88-draft.qxd 02.9.26 2:44 PM Page iii (1,1)
