CAUTIONS
DO NOT use or place the transceiver in areas with tem-
peratures below –22°F (–30°C) or above +140°F (+60°C) or,
in areas subject to direct sunlight, such as the dashboard.
RWARNING! NEVER connect the transceiver to an
AC outlet. This may pose a fire hazard or result in an electric
shock.
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.
AVOID operating the transceiver without running the vehi-
cle’s engine. The vehicle’s battery will quickly run out if the
transceiver is in transmission while the vehicle’s engine OFF.
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.
AVOID placing the transceiver in excessively dusty envi-
ronments.
AVOID placing the transceiver against walls. This will
NEVER place the transceiver where normal operation of
the vehicle may be hindered or where it could cause bodily
injury.
obstruct heat dissipation.
AVOID the use of chemical agents such as benzine or
alcohol when cleaning, as they damage the transceiver sur-
faces.
NEVER allow children to touch the transceiver.
NEVER expose the transceiver to rain, snow or any liquids.
BE CAREFUL! The transceiver will become hot when
operating continuously for long periods.
USE supplied microphone only. Other microphones have
different pin assignments and may damage the transceiver.
