
USINGTHERADIOINEXPLOSIVEATMOSPHERESORBLASTINGAREAS

Switchoffyourradiobeforeenteringanyareawheretheremaybeinflammablegas,liquids
ordust.Anexplosioncouldresultinseriousinjuryordeath.

Switchoffyourradiowhenapproachingablastingarea.Blastingareasareusuallysign
postedwithinstructionstouserstoturnofftwowayradios.Strongradiotransmissions
couldigniteblastingcapsresultinginanunscheduledexplosionresultinginseriousinjuryor
death.

INSTALLATIONGUIDELINES

•Donotinstalltheradionearanairbagorinanareawhereanairbagmaydeploy.If
anairbagisobstructedbytheradio,itmaynotdeployasexpected.Itcouldalso
propeltheradiowithenoughforcetocauseseriousinjury.

•Avoidtouchingtheheatsinkattherearoftheradiowhiletheradioisinuse.The
heatsinkcanbecomehotduringprolongeduse.

•Donotinstalltheradioinfrontofavehicleheater.Theradiorequiresacoolairflow
overtherearheatsinkwhentransmittingtomaintainefficiency.

•Donotmakeunapprovedmodificationstotheradio.Suchmodificationscouldvoid
thewarrantyandcausetheradiotooperateoutsideitsapprovedspecifications.

InterferencewithVehicleElectronics

SomeoftheelectronicsinyourvehiclemaybesusceptibletoRFenergywhenyourradiois
transmitting.Examplesofelectronicdevicesinyourvehiclethatcouldbeaffectedareanti‐
lock/anti‐skidbrakingsystems,cruisecontrolsystemsandfuelinjectionsystems.Ifyour
vehicleisfittedwithanyofthesesystemspleaseconsultyourvehiclemanufacturerto
determinewhetherthesesystemsarelikelytobeaffectedbyyourradiowhenitis
transmitting.Carefulselectionofmountinglocationsandgoodinstallationtechniques
shouldgenerallyminimizeanyinterferencetoyourvehicleelectronics.
