Icom IC-F6021 [3/24] Precautions

PRECAUTIONS

RWARNING! NEVER connect the transceiver to an AC

outlet. This may pose a ﬁre hazard or result in an electric shock.

RWARNING! 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.

RWARNING! NEVER cut the DC power cable be-

tween the DC plug and fuse holder. If an incorrect connec-

tion 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 allow children to touch the trans-

ceiver.

CAUTION! NEVER expose the transceiver to rain,

snow or any liquids.

USE the speciﬁed microphone only. Other microphones have

different pin assignments and may damage the transceiver.

DO NOT use or place the transceiver in areas with tem-

peratures 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 ve-

hicle’s engine. The vehicle’s battery will quickly run out when

the transceiver transmits while the vehicle’s engine is OFF.

DO NOT place the transceiver in excessively dusty envi-

ronments.

DO NOT place the transceiver against walls. This will ob-

struct heat dissipation.

DO NOT use chemical agents such as benzine or alcohol

when cleaning, as they damage the transceiver surfaces.

BE CAREFUL! The transceiver will become hot when

operating continuously for long periods.

For U.S.A. only
