Before connecting the AC power, check the label on the
rear panel which indicates the AC mains voltage for which
your transceiver is currently set. If the voltage on this la-
bel does not match your AC mains voltage, a switch on the
internal power supply in the transceiver must be moved.
This requires only a screwdriver and is not difficult (see
below), but you should make sure the power supply is set
up correctly before connecting power. Always use a 10-
Amp fuse in the fuse holder, whether operating on 100 -
120 VAC or 200 - 240 VAC. Do not use an improper fuse.
If you have any doubts about the procedure, contact your
dealer for assistance.
Make certain that all cables are disconnected from the
transceiver.
Remove the three screws from each side of the trans-
ceiver, and three screws from the top edge of the rear
panel. Slide the top cover toward to the rear about
1/2 inch (1 cm), then remove the top cover.
Locate the voltage selector switch on the power sup-
ply unit at the left side of the transceiver (just behind
the Main [ POWER ] switch).
Move the AC range switch to the "115" position for
operation from 100 - 120 VAC, or to the "230" posi-
tion for operation from 200 - 240 VAC.
Replace the top cover and its nine screws.
Always use the 10-Amp fuse in the fuse holder, whether
operating on 100 - 120 VAC or 200 - 240 VAC.
Change the voltage marking on the label on the rear
panel to match the new voltage setting.

After making certain the AC voltage for which the trans-
ceiver is set matches your mains voltage, connect the AC
power cord to the 3-pin AC jack on the rear panel. Wait
until all other transceiver interconnections have been made
before connecting the other end of the power cord to the
wall outlet.
CAUTION
Permanent damage will result if improper AC
supply voltage is applied to the transceiver.
Your warranty does not cover damage caused by applica-
tion of improper supply voltage, or use of an improper
fuse.
