Предупреждения за безопасност
• Моля, прочетете следните предупреждения,
за да предотвратите пожари, наранявания и
повреда на радиото или антената.
• Не се опитвайте да регулирате радиото,
докато шофирате, опасно е.
• Захранващото напрежение на това радио
трябва да бъде 12V или 24V DC.
• Не поставяйте радиото върху прекалено
прашна, мокра или нестабилна повърхност.
• Не свързвайте антената по време на
предаване, риск от изгаряне на кожата или
токов удар.
• Моля, спазвайте разстояние от устройства,
които създават смущения (като: телевизор,
генератор и др.)
• Тези, които използват пейсмейкъри, се
съветват да спазват разстояние от антената
по време на предаване и особено да не я
докосват.
• Не доближавайте метални предмети до
вътрешната електрическа част на радиото,
риск от токов удар.
• Избягвайте да излагате радиото на
температури по-ниски от -26°C и по-високи
от +80°C. През лятото температурата в
автомобила може да надвиши 80°C, което
