Safety
The Anytone AT-D868UV DMR handheld transceiver has been
carefully designed to provide you with years of safe, reliable operation.
As with all electrical equipment, however, there are a few basic
precautions you should take to avoid hurting yourself or damaging the
radio:
• Read the instructions in this handbook carefully. Be sure to save it
for future reference.
• Read and follow all warning and instruction labels on the radio and
owner's manual.
• Do not carry the transceiver by the antenna. This may damage the
antenna or antenna terminal. Grasp the handheld by its base (not the
antenna) when you need to place or remove it.
• Do not keep the radio with the antenna very close to, or touching
exposed parts of the body, while transmitting. Anytone radios will
perform best, if you speak 2-4 inches away from the microphone and
the radio is vertical.
• Be sure the "PTT" key is not pressed when you do not need to
transmit.
• Do not operate the radio near unshielded electrical blasting caps or
in an explosive atmosphere.
• Do not transmit without the antenna fitted on the radio. Though it is
provided with a protection, it may damage the TX output final stage.
• Respect the environment conditions. The radio is designed to be
used in heavy environments, however avoid exposing it to extremely
hot or cold temperature (out of the range between –20 to +140°F). Do
not expose the transceiver to excessive vibrations as well as dusty or
rainy locations.
• Never try to disassemble or service the radio by yourself (aside from
the routine maintenance described in this handbook). It may cause
damage to the radio transceiver and void your warranty requiring
extensive repair work. Always contact your local dealer for assistance.
• Use only authorized accessories. Using non Anytone radio brand
accessories may seriously damage your handheld transceiver and
void your warranty.
