i
RWARNING! NEVER connect the transceiver to an
AC outlet. This may pose a fire hazard or result in an electric
shock.
NEVER connect the transceiver to a power source of
more than 16 V DC such as a 24 V battery. This connection
will ruin 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 might be damaged.
NEVER place the transceiver where normal operation of
the vehicle may be hindered or where it could cause bodily
injury.
NEVER allow children to touch the transceiver.
NEVER expose the transceiver to rain, snow or any liq-
uids.
USE the specified microphone only. Other microphones
have different pin assignments and may damage the trans-
ceiver.
DO NOT use or place the transceiver in areas with tem-
peratures below –30°C (–22°F) or above +60°C (+140°F), or
in areas subject to direct sunlight, such as the dashboard.
PRECAUTIONS
WORD DEFINITION
RWARNING Personal injury, fire hazard or electric
shock may occur.
CAUTION Equipment damage may occur.
NOTE If disregarded, inconvenience only. No risk
of personal injury, fire or electric shock.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS carefully and com-
pletely before using the transceiver.

PRECAUTIONS
AVOID operating the transceiver without running the ve-
hicle’s engine. The vehicle’s battery will quickly run out if the
transceiver transmits while the vehicle’s engine OFF.
AVOID placing the transceiver in excessively dusty envi-
ronments.
AVOID placing the transceiver against walls. This will ob-
struct heat dissipation.
AVOID the use of chemical agents such as benzine or
alcohol when cleaning, as they damage the transceiver sur-
faces.
BE CAREFUL! The transceiver will become hot when
operating continuously for long periods.
For U.S.A. only
CAUTION: Changes or modifications to this transceiver, not ex-
pressly approved by Icom Inc., could void your authority to operate
this transceiver under FCC regulations.

2BASIC OPERATION
nCall procedure
When your system employs tone signaling (excluding CTCSS
and DTCS), the call pro cedure may be necessary prior to
voice transmission. The tone signalling employed may be a se-
lective calling system which allows you to call specific station(s)
only and prevent unwanted stations from contacting you.
qSelect the desired TX code channel, 2-tone code, Indi-
vidual ID code* or Talkgroup ID code* according to your
System Operator’s instructions.
• This may not be necessary depending on programming.
• Refer to pgs. 11–13 for selection.
*Digital mode operation only.
w Push the call key (assigned to one of the dealer program-
mable keys; except for the Digital mode operation) or [PTT].
eAfter transmitting, the remainder of your communication
can be carried out in the normal fashion.

DTransmitting notes
• Transmit inhibit function
The transceiver has several inhibit functions which restrict
transmission under the following conditions:
- The channel is in mute condition (‘Inaudible’ condition;
“ ” does not appear.)
- The channel is busy.
- Un-matched (or matched) CTCSS is received.
(Depending on the pre-setting)
- Un-matched (or matched) NAC is received.*
(Depending on the pre-setting)
- The selected channel is a ‘receive only’ channel.
*Digital mode operation only.
• Time-out timer
After continuous transmission for the pre-programmed time
period, the time-out timer is activated, causing the trans-
ceiver to stop transmitting.
• Penalty timer
Once the time-out timer is activated, transmission is further
inhibited for a period determined by the penalty timer.
DTX code channel selection
If the transceiver has [TX Code CH Select] assigned to it,
the indication can be toggled between the operating channel

nAntenna
A key element in the performance of any communication
system is an antenna. Contact your dealer about antennas
and the best places to mount them.
nFuse replacement
A fuse is installed in the supplied DC power cable. If a fuse
blows or the transceiver stops functioning, track down the
source of the problem if possible, and replace the damaged
fuse with a new rated one.
qFuse rating: 20 A
USE the 20 A fuse only.
nCleaning
If the transceiver becomes dusty or dirty, wipe it clean with a
soft, dry cloth.
AVOID the use of solvents such as benzene or al-
cohol, as they may damage the transceiver sur-
faces.
