Note; Precautions - Icom IC-M510 Instruction Manual

■ Note

A WARNING STICKER is supplied with
the USA version transceiver.
To comply with FCC regulations, this sticker
must be affixed in such a location as to be
readily seen from the operating controls
of the radio as in the diagram to the right.
Make sure the chosen location is clean and
dry before applying the sticker.

■ Precautions

R WARNING! NEVER connect the
transceiver directly to an AC outlet. This
may cause a fire or an electric shock.
R WARNING! NEVER connect the
transceiver to a power source of more
than 16 V DC such as a 24 V battery. This
connection could cause a fire or damage
the transceiver.
R WARNING! NEVER reverse the DC
power cable polarity. This could cause a
fire or damage the equipment.
R WARNING! NEVER cut the DC power
cable between the DC power connector
on the transceiver's rear panel and the
fuse holder. If an incorrect connection is
made after cutting, the transceiver may be
damaged.
R WARNING! NEVER operate the
transceiver during a lightning storm. It may
result in an electric shock, cause a fire or
damage the transceiver. Always disconnect
the power source and antenna before a
storm.
R WARNING! NEVER place the
transceiver where normal operation of the
vessel may be hindered, or where it could
cause bodily injury.
WARNING.
CAUTION: DO NOT place or leave the
transceiver in areas with temperatures
below –20°C or above +60°C (–4ºF or
above +140ºF), or in areas subject to direct
sunlight, such as a dashboard.
CAUTION: DO NOT use harsh solvents
such as Benzine or alcohol when cleaning.
This could damage the equipment
surfaces. If the surface becomes dusty or
dirty, wipe it clean with a soft, dry cloth.
NEVER place the transceiver in an
insecure place to avoid inadvertent use by
unauthorized persons.
BE CAREFUL! The transceiver's rear
panel will become hot when transmitting
continuously for long periods of time.
BE CAREFUL! The transceiver meets
IPX8 requirements for waterproof
protection*. However, once the transceiver
or microphone has been dropped,
or the waterproof seal is cracked or
damaged, waterproof protection cannot be
guaranteed because of possible damage to
the case or the waterproof seal.
* Except for the DC power connector,
NMEA In/Out leads and AF Out leads.
NOTE: Install the transceiver and/or
microphone more than 1 meter from the
vessel's magnetic navigation compass.
