NOTICES TO THE USER
Government law prohibits the operation of unlicensed
transmitters within the territories under government control.
Illegal operation is punishable by fine and/or imprisonment.
Refer service to qualified technicians only.
SAFETY: It is important that the operator is aware of,
and understands, hazards common to the operation
of any transceiver.
EXPLOSIVE ATMOSPHERES (GASES, DUST, FUMES,
etc.)
Turn OFF your transceiver while taking on fuel or while parked in
gasoline service stations. Do not carry spare fuel containers in
the trunk of your vehicle if your transceiver is mounted in the
trunk area.
INJURY FROM RADIO FREQUENCY TRANSMISSIONS
Do not operate your transceiver when somebody is either
standing near to or touching the antenna, to avoid the
possibility of radio frequency burns or related physical injury.
DYNAMITE BLASTING CAPS
Operating the transceiver within 150 m (500 feet) of dynamite
blasting caps may cause them to explode. Turn OFF your
transceiver when in an area where blasting is in progress, or
where “TURN OFF TWO-WAY RADIO” signs have been
posted. If you are transporting blasting caps in your vehicle,
make sure they are carried in a closed metal box with a
padded interior. Do not transmit while the caps are being
placed into or removed from the container.
PRECAUTIONS
Observe the following precautions to prevent fire,
personal injury, and transceiver damage.
Do not attempt to configure the transceiver while driving;
it is too dangerous.
Do not disassemble or modify the transceiver for any
reason.
Do not expose the transceiver to long periods of direct
sunlight, nor place it near heating appliances.
Do not place the transceiver in excessively dusty, humid,
or wet areas, nor on unstable surfaces.
If an abnormal odor or smoke is detected coming from
the transceiver, switch the transceiver power off
immediately, and contact your KENWOOD dealer.
Use of the transceiver while you are driving may be
against traffic laws. Please check and observe the
vehicle regulations in your area.
Do not use options not specified by KENWOOD.
The transceiver operates in 12 V negative ground systems
only! Check the battery polarity and voltage of the vehicle
before installing the transceiver.
Use only the supplied DC power cable or a KENWOOD
optional DC power cable.
Do not insert metal objects into the cooling fan.
Do not cut and/or remove the fuse holder on the DC power
cable. Improper connections and/or current surges may
cause smoke or fire.
For passenger safety, install the transceiver securely using
the supplied mounting bracket and screw set so the
transceiver will not break loose in the event of a collision.
