UNPACKING

moving, or reshipment becomes necessary, they come in handy. Accessory hardware, cables, etc.,
are packed with the transceiver. Make sure you have not overlooked anything.

RECOMMENDATIONS FOR INSTALLATION
1. Avoid placing the IC-251A/E in direct sunlight, high temperature, dusty or humid places.
2. Left sides of the unit, function as heatsinks. The temperature there will usually become
relatively warm. Any equipment should be at least 1 inch (3cm) away from the unit so as to
provide good ventilation. Also avoid places near outlets of heaters, air conditioners etc.
3. Place the unit so that the controls and switches can easily be handled and the frequency
indication and meter can easily be read. |
For mobile installation, an optional mounting bracket is available. Select the best location
that can stand the weight of the unit and that does not interfere with your driving in any way.
5. Use the Ground Lug!

socket on the rear panel.
