RWARNING RF EXPOSURE! This device emits Radio
Frequency (RF) energy. Extreme caution should be observed when
operating this device. If you have any questions regarding RF expo-
sure and safety standards please refer to the Federal Communica-
tions Commission Office of Engineering and Technology’s report on
Evaluating Compliance with FCC Guidelines for Human Radio fre-
quency Electromagnetic Fields (OET Bulletin 65).
RWARNING! NEVER connect the transceiver to an AC out-
let. This may pose a fire hazard or result in an electric shock.
RWARNING! NEVER operate the transceiver while driving a
vehicle. Safe driving requires your full attention—anything less may
result in an accident.
NEVER connect the transceiver to a power source of more than
16 V DC. This will damage the transceiver.
NEVER connect the transceiver to a power source using reverse
polarity. This will damage the transceiver.
NEVER cut the DC power cable between the DC plug and fuse
holder. If an incorrect connection is made after cutting, the transceiver
may be damaged.
NEVER expose the transceiver to rain, snow or any liquids. The
transceiver may be damaged.
NEVER operate or touch the transceiver with wet hands. This may
result in an electric shock or damage the transceiver.
NEVER place the transceiver where normal operation of the vehi-
cle may be hindered or where it could cause bodily injury.
NEVER let objects impede the operation of the cooling fan on the
rear panel.
DO NOT push the PTT when not actually desiring to transmit.
DO NOT allow children to play with any radio equipment contain-
ing a transmitter.
During mobile operation, DO NOT operate the transceiver with-
out running the vehicle’s engine. When the transceiver’s power is ON
and your vehicle’s engine is OFF, the vehicle’s battery will soon be-
come exhausted.
AVOID using or placing the transceiver in direct sunlight or in
areas with temperatures below –10°C or above +60°C.
BE CAREFUL! The transceiver will become hot when operat-
ing it continuously for long periods.
AVOID setting the transceiver in a place without adequate venti-
lation. Heat dissipation may be affected, and the transceiver may be
damaged.
AVOID the use of chemical agents such as benzine or alcohol
when cleaning, as they can damage the transceiver’s surfaces.
USE Icom microphones only (supplied or optional). Other manu-
facturer’s microphones have different pin assignments and may dam-
age the transceiver if attached.
IMPORTANT!
Detailed installation notes for Icom mobile transceivers to
be fitted into vehicles are available. Contact your Icom
dealer or distributor.

■Your first contact
Now that you have your IC-2725E installed in your car or
shack, you are probably excited to get on the air. We would
like to take you through a few basic operation steps to make
your first “On The Air”an enjoyable experience.
1. Turning ON the transceiver
Before powering up your IC-2725E, you may want to make
sure the audio volume and squelch level controls are set in
9–10 o’clock positions.
Although you have purchased a brand new transceiver, some
settings may be changed from the factory defaults because
of the QC process. Resetting the CPU is necessary to start
from factory default.
➥While pushing both band’s [M/CALL•MW], push [PWR] for
1 sec. to reset the CPU.
2. Selecting the main band
The IC-2725E displays 2 frequencies on left and right bands
simultaneously. However, transmission, some switches and
microphone keys operation are accepted for the main band
only.
➥Push the desired band’s (left or right) [MAIN•BAND] to se-
lect the main band.
•“Q”appears for the main band.
Using the HM-133
You can select the main band from the HM-133.

3. Selecting the operating frequency band
The IC-2725E has 2 m and 70 cm bands for each left and
right band. The operating band can be exchanged between
them, and the same bands, V/V and U/U settings are also
possible.
➥Push the desired band’s (left or right) [MAIN•BAND] for
1 sec. then rotate the appropriate band’s [DIAL].
•Push the [MAIN•BAND] momentarily to return to frequency indi-
cation.
4. Tune the frequency
The tuning dial will allow you to dial in the frequency you want
to operate. Pages 13 and 14 will instruct you on how to set
the tuning speed.
Using the HM-133
You can directly enter the frequency with the HM-133 keypad
for the main band.

■Repeater operation
1. Setting duplex
Push desired band’s [MAIN•BAND] to select the main band.
Push [DUP•MONI] once or twice to select minus duplex or
plus duplex.
2. Repeater tone
Push [TONE•DTMF] several times until “T”appears, if the re-
peater requires a subaudible tone to be accessed.
Using the HM-133
Plus or minus duplex selection and the repeater tone setting
can be made easily via HM-133.
Push [

■Programming memory channels
The IC-2725E has a total of 212 memory channels (including
10 scan edges and 2 call channels) for storing often used op-
erating frequency, repeater settings, etc.
Any memory channel can be recalled from either left or right
band.
1. Setting a frequency
In VFO mode, set the desired operating frequency with re-
peater, tone and tuning steps, etc.
➥Push the desired band’s [V/MHz•SCAN] to select VFO.
➥
Rotate the same band’s [DIAL] to set the desired frequency.
•Set other data, such as repeater tone, duplex information, tuning
step), if desired.
2. Selecting a memory channel
Push the same band’s [M/CALL•MW] for 1 sec., then rotate
the [DIAL] to select the desired memory channel.
•“!”indicator and memory channel number blink.
3. Writing a memory channel
Push and hold the [M/CALL•MW] for 1 sec. to program.
