BASIC MANUAL
i410PRO
UHF CB TRANSCEIVER

i
IMPORTANT
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS carefully before using the
IC-410PRO uhf cb transceiver.
KEEP THIS BASIC MANUAL,as it contains important
operating information that may be useful in the future.
You can download the ADVANCED MANUAL for more
information from the Icom website.

Incorporated (Japan) in Japan, the United States, the United Kingdom,

countries.
i. The use of the citizen band radio service is licenced in
Australia by the ACMA Radiocommunications (Citizens
Band Radio Stations) Class Licence and in New Zealand
by the Ministry of Economic Development (MED) General
User Radio Licence for Citizen Band Radio and operation
is subject to conditions contained within these licences.
ii. Always listen on a channel (or observe the channel busy
indicator) to ensure it is not already being used before
transmitting.
iii. In Australia, channel 11 is the customary calling channel
for establishing communication. Channel 40 is the
customary road vehicle channel.
iv. In Australia, except in an emergency, a CB transmitter shall
not be operated on UHF emergency channels 5 and 35.
v. No voice transmissions are permitted on data channels 22
and 23 (voice operation is inhibited on these channels).
vi. The user of this UHF CB communications device shall
not transmit Selcall tones for longer than 3 seconds
during any 60 second period.
vii.UHF CB repeaters extend the operational range of your
radio. Repeaters operate utilising two channels (repeater
input/repeater output). It is important to avoid operation
on locally used repeater input channels (in the channel
range of 31 to 38 and 71 to 78) or locally used repeater
output channels (in the channel range of 1 to 8 and 41 to
48), unless long distance communication via the repeater
is specically required. See the section on repeater
operation (ADVANCED MANUAL) for more information.
viii Please be aware that the UHF CB network may
experience possible operational issues during the
changeover to narrowband. This transceiver operates on
12.5 kHz channel spacing. During the changeover period
from 25 kHz to 12.5 kHz spacing, there may be some
loss of quality when 12.5 kHz (narrowband, 2.5 kHz
deviation) transmissions are received on 25 kHz (wide
band, 5.0 kHz deviation) equipment, and vice-versa.
There may also be interference due to older equipment
being operated on channels adjacent to new narrowband
channels, as the channel setting on these may cause
some ‘overlap’. A list of currently authorised channels
can be found on the ACMA website (Australia) and on
the MED website in New Zealand.
GENERAL INFORMATION

PRECAUTIONS
RWARNING! NEVER connect the transceiver to an AC
outlet. This may pose a re hazard or result in an electric
shock.
RWARNING! NEVER operate or touch the transceiver
and microphone with wet hands. This may result in an
electric shock or damage the transceiver and microphone.
RWARNING! NEVER connect the transceiver to a
power source of more than 16 V DC. This could cause a re
or damage the transceiver.
RWARNING! NEVER connect the transceiver to a
power source using reverse polarity. This will damage the
transceiver.
EXPLICIT DEFINITIONS
WORD DEFINITION
RDANGER! Personal death, serious injury or an
explosion may occur.
RWARNING! Personal injury, re hazard or electric
shock may occur.
CAUTION Equipment damage may occur.
NOTE
If disregarded, inconvenience only. No
risk of personal injury, re or electric
shock.
RWARNING! 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.
RWARNING! NEVER place the transceiver where
normal operation of the vehicle may be hindered or where it
could cause bodily injury.
CAUTION: NEVER expose the transceiver and
microphone to rain, snow or any liquids. The transceiver and
microphone may be damaged.
DO NOT push the PTT when not actually intending to
transmit.
DO NOT allow children to play with any transceiver
equipment containing a transmitter.
DO NOT operate the transceiver near unshielded electrical
blasting caps or in an explosive atmosphere.
DO NOT operate the transceiver for extended periods
without running the vehicle’s engine. The transceiver’s
power consumption may soon exhaust the vehicles battery.
DO NOT set the transceiver in a place without adequate
ventilation. Heat dissipation may be affected, and the
transceiver may be damaged.
DO NOT use harsh solvents such as benzine or alcohol to
clean the transceiver, as they will damage the transceiver’s
surfaces. If the transceiver becomes dusty or dirty, wipe it
clean with a soft, dry cloth.

USE only Icom microphones (supplied or optional). Other
manufacturer’s microphones have different pin assignments
and may damage the transceiver if attached.
DO NOT modify the transceiver. The transceiver warranty
does not cover any problems caused by unauthorized
modication.
DO NOT use or place the transceiver in direct sunlight or in
areas with temperatures below –30°C or above +60°C.
DO NOT place the transceiver in excessively dusty
environment.
DO NOT place the transceiver against walls or putting
anything on top of the transceiver. This will obstruct heat
dissipation.
BE CAREFUL! The transceiver will become hot when
operating it continuously for long periods of time.
MAKE SURE to turn OFF the transceiver power before
connecting any supplied/optional equipment.
*Used for labelling the programmable function keys according to
their assigned functions.
