BEFORE USING Precautions ● Please observe the following precautions to prevent fire, personal injury, and transceiver damage: ● Connect the transceiver only to a power source as described in this manual or as marked on the transceiver itself. ● Route all power cables safely. Ensure the power cables can neither be stepped upon nor pinched by items placed near or against the cables. Pay particular attention to locations near AC receptacles, AC outlet strips, and points of entry to the transceiver. ● Take care not to drop objects or spill liquid into the transceiver through enclosure openings. Metal objects, such as hairpins or needles, inserted into the transceiver may contact voltages resulting in serious electrical shocks. Never permit children to insert any objects into the transceiver. ● Do not attempt to defeat methods used for grounding and electrical polarization in the transceiver, particularly involving the power input cable. ● Adequately ground all outdoor antennas for this transceiver using approved methods. Grounding helps protect against voltage surges caused by lightning. It also reduces the chance of a build‑up of static charge. EXAMPLE OF ANTENNA GROUNDING GROUND CLAMP ANTENNA LEAD IN WIRE ANTENNA DISCHARGE UNIT GROUNDING CONDUCTORS ELECTRIC SERVICE EQUIPMENT GROUND CLAMPS POWER SERVICE GROUNDING ELECTRODE SYSTEM ● ● ● ● Minimum recommended distance for an outdoor antenna from power lines is one and one‑half times the vertical height of the associated antenna support structure. This distance allows adequate clearance from the power lines if the support structure fails for any reason. Locate the transceiver so as not to interfere with its ventilation. Do not place books or other equipment on the transceiver that may impede the free movement of air. Allow a minimum of 10 cm (4 inches) between the rear of the transceiver and the wall or operating desk shelf. Do not use the transceiver near water or sources of moisture. For example, avoid use near a bathtub, sink, swimming pool, or in a damp basement or attic. The presence of an unusual odor or smoke is often a sign of trouble. Immediately turn the power OFF and remove the power cable. Contact a KENWOOD service station or your dealer for advice. ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● Locate the transceiver away from heat sources such as a radiator, stove, amplifier or other devices that produce substantial amounts of heat. Do not use volatile solvents such as alcohol, paint thinner, gasoline, or benzene to clean the cabinet of the transceiver. Use only a clean cloth with warm water or a mild detergent. Disconnect the input power cable from the power source when the transceiver is not used for long periods of time. Remove the transceiver’s enclosure only to do accessory installations described in this manual or accessory manuals. Follow provided instructions carefully, to avoid electrical shocks. If unfamiliar with this type of work, seek assistance from an experienced individual, or have a professional technician do the task. Enlist the services of qualified personnel in the following cases: a) The power supply or plug is damaged. b) Objects have fallen into or liquid has spilled into the transceiver. c) The transceiver has been exposed to rain. d) The transceiver is operating abnormally or performance has seriously degraded. e) The transceiver has been dropped or the enclosure damaged. Do not place the unit in excessively dusty and/or humid areas, nor on unstable surfaces. HF/ 50/ 70 MHz mobile antennas are larger and heavier than VHF/ UHF antennas. Therefore, use a strong and rigid mount to safely and securely install the HF/ 50/ 70 MHz mobile antenna. Do not put the plastic bag used for packing of this equipment on the place which reaches a small child’s hand. It will become a cause of suffocation if it wears flatly. Turn the transceiver power off in the following locations: In explosive atmospheres (inflammable gas, dust particles, metallic powders, grain powders, etc.) About Liquid Crystal Display ● ● ● ● Brightness of the LCD screen may appear uneven depending on the content displayed. This is not a malfunction. The LCD is manufactured using high-density technology to achieve more than 99.99 % of effective pixels. Less than 0.01 % of the pixels may not be lit or may remain lit all the time. This is not a malfunction. When using this product in a cold region or when the temperature of this unit or its surroundings is extremely low, it may take a few minutes for the LCD to reach the normal level of brightness after turning on the power. This is not a malfunction. When this occurs, turn off the power and allow the surrounding environment to reach the ambient temperature (10 ℃ to 30 ℃ or 32°F to 86°F) before using the unit. If you accidentally damaged the LCD display and the liquid in the LCD display splashes and gets into your eyes or mouth, rinse thoroughly with water immediately and seek medical attention. And if the liquid splashes on your clothes or skin, wipe off immediately with alcohol etc. Leaving it as is will harm your skin or damage your clothes. iii BEFORE USING Notice to the User One or more of the following statements may be applicable for this equipment.

CONNECTION INSTALLATION AND CONNECTION Installation ● Installation of Lightning Arrestors Do not lift this transceiver by holding the Tuning control or other control knobs on the front panel or the connectors on the rear panel. Doing so may result in injury or damage of the control knobs. Antenna Installation and Connection The antenna system is made up of the antenna, coaxial cables and a ground terminal. Installing the antenna system carefully and properly helps to optimize the performance of the transceiver. • Make use of a correctly-adjusted 50 Ω antenna, 50 Ω coaxial cables and appropriate connectors. Make sure that all connections are cleaned and free of dirt before fastening them. • Match the impedance of the coaxial cable and antenna such that SWR is 1:1.5 or lower. • A high SWR may lower the TX output power, thereby causing radio interference with electrical appliances such as radio and TV as well as failure of this transceiver. • If reports on signal distortion are received, this means the transceiver may not be transmitting efficiently. ● ● ● Transmitting without connecting the antenna may damage this transceiver. Before transmission, connect an antenna or a 50 Ω dummy load to this transceiver. The protection circuit of this transceiver will be activated if the SWR of the antenna exceeds 1.5. Use an antenna with a low SWR. When an RX antenna that makes use of semiconductors (such as an active antenna) is connected, transmission or antenna tuning must not be performed. Doing so supplies power to the antenna and may damage the semiconductor circuit of the antenna. • To prevent fire, electric shock, malfunctioning and injury due to lightning, install a coaxial lightning arrestor. • Besides installing a coaxial lightning arrestor, disconnect the cable of the antenna from this transceiver if lightning is anticipated. Connection of Regulated DC Power Supply ● ● Make sure to turn off the power of the regulated DC power supply before connecting the DC power cord. Do not insert the power plug of the regulated DC power supply into the AC outlet until all the connections are complete. A DC 13.8 V regulated DC power supply is needed for using this transceiver. It cannot be connected directly to an AC outlet. Use the supplied DC power cord to connect this transceiver to the regulated DC power supply. • The current capacity needed for the regulated DC power supply is 22.5 A and above. Use one with sufficient current capacity. 1 Connect the DC power cord to the regulated DC power supply. Connect the red wire to the “+” terminal and the black wire to the “-” terminal. 2 Next, connect the DC power cord to the DC 13.8 V power connector of this transceiver. Insert the cord fully into the power connector. Using the Auxiliary Support An auxiliary support is stored inside the front leg of this transceiver. Pull it toward you if you want the panel to face slightly upwards. Ground Connection Connect to the ground terminal correctly to avoid risks such as electric shock. First of all, bury one or multiple ground bars or a large copper sheet in the ground and connect them to the GND terminal of this transceiver. Use a thick conducting wire or a cut copper band that is as short as possible for this connection. ● Gas pipes, conduit pipes for power distribution, plastic water pipes and the like must not be used for grounding. Not only are they ineffective for grounding, they may also result in accidents or fire.
