BATTERY CHARGING
■
Caution
Misuse of Lithium-ion batteries may result in the following hazards: smoke, fire, or the battery may rupture. Misuse can also cause damage to the battery or degradation of battery performance.
• R DANGER! Use and charge only specified Icom battery packs with Icom radios or Icom charger. Only Icom battery packs are tested and approved for use and charge with
Icom radios or Icom charger. Using third-party or counterfeit battery packs or charger may cause smoke, fire, or cause the battery to burst.
D
Battery caution
• R DANGER! DO NOT hammer or otherwise impact the battery. Do not use the battery if it has been severely impacted or dropped, or if the battery has been subjected to heavy pressure. Battery damage may not be visible on the outside of the case. Even if the surface of the battery does not show cracks or any other damage, the cells inside the battery may rupture or catch fire.
• R DANGER! NEVER use or leave battery packs in areas with temperatures above +60˚C (+140˚F). High temperature buildup in the battery, such as could occur near fires or stoves, inside a sun heated car, or in direct sunlight may cause the battery to rupture or catch fire. Excessive temperatures may also degrade battery performance or shorten battery life.
• R DANGER! DO NOT expose the battery to rain, snow, seawater, or any other liquids. Never charge or use a wet battery. If the battery gets wet, be sure to wipe it dry before using. The battery is not waterproof.
• R DANGER! NEVER incinerate used battery packs since internal battery gas may cause them to rupture, or may cause an explosion.
• R DANGER! NEVER solder the battery terminals or
NEVER modify the battery pack. This may cause heat generation, and the battery may rupture, emit smoke or catch fire.
• R DANGER! Use the battery only with the transceiver for which it is specified. Never use a battery with any other equipment, or for any purpose that is not specified in this instruction manual.
• R DANGER! If fluid from inside the battery gets in your eyes, blindness can result. Rinse your eyes with clean water, without rubbing them, and see a doctor immediately.
• R WARNING! Immediately stop using the battery if it emits an abnormal odor, heats up, or is discolored or deformed. If any of these conditions occur, contact your Icom dealer or distributor.
• R WARNING! Immediately wash, using clean water, any part of the body that comes into contact with fluid from inside the battery.
• R WARNING! NEVER put the battery in a microwave oven, high-pressure container, or in an induction heating cooker.
This could cause a fire, overheating, or cause the battery to rupture.
• CAUTION: Always use the battery within the specified temperature range, –20˚C to +60˚C (–4˚F to +140˚F). Using the battery out of its specified temperature range will reduce the battery’s performance and battery life.
• CAUTION: Shorter battery life could occur if the battery is left fully charged, completely discharged, or in an excessive temperature environment (above +50˚C; +122˚F) for an extended period of time. If the battery must be left unused for a long time, it must be detached from the radio after discharging. You may use the battery until the remaining capacity is about half, then keep it safely in a cool dry place with the temperature range as below:
–20˚C to +50˚C (–4˚F to +122˚F) (within a month)
–20˚C to +35˚C (–4˚F to +95˚F) (within three months)

SAFETY TRAINING INFORMATION
Votre radio Icom produit une énergie électromagnétique de radiofréquences (RF), en mode de transmission. Cette radio est conçue pour un «usage professionnel seulement» et classée comme tel, ce qui signifie qu’elle doit être utilisée uniquement dans le cadre d'un travail par des personnes conscientes des dangers et des mesures visant à minimiser ces dangers. Elle
N’EST PAS conçue pour une «utilisation grand public», dans un environnement non contrôlé.
Cet appareil a été évalué et jugé conforme, aux limites d’exposition aux RF de la FCC et d'IC, pour une «utilisation grand public». En outre, votre radio Icom satisfait les normes et directives qui suivent en matière de niveaux d'énergie et d’énergie électromagnétique de RF et d’évaluation de tels niveaux en ce qui concerne l’exposition humaine:
• Supplément C, édition 97-01, du Bulletin OET n° 65 de la FCC, «Evaluating Compliance with FCC Guidelines for Human Exposure to Radio
Frequency Electromagnetic Fields».
• Norme de l’American National Standards Institute (ANSI): IEEE C95.1-
1992 sur les niveaux de sécurité compatibles avec l’exposition humaine aux champs électromagnétiques de radiofréquences (3 kHz à 300
GHz).
• Norme de l’ANSI: IEEE C95.3-1992 sur la méthode d’évaluation recommandée du champ magnétique potentiellement dangereux des radiofréquences et des micro-ondes.
• Les accessoires illustrés à la p. 30–31 sont approuvés pour une utilisation avec ce produit. L’utilisation d’accessoires autres que ceux précisés peut entraîner des niveaux d’exposition aux RF supérieures aux limites établies par la FCC et d'IC en matière d’exposition aux RF sans fil.
Afin de vous assurer que votre exposition à une
énergie électromagnétique de RF se situe dans les limites permises par la FCC et d'IC pour une utilisation grand public, veuillez en tout temps respecter les directives suivantes:
• NE PAS faire fonctionner la radio sans qu’une antenne appropriée y soit fixée, car ceci risque d’endommager la radio et causer une exposition supérieure aux limites établies par la FCC et d'IC. L’antenne appropriée est celle qui est fournie avec cette radio par le fabricant ou une antenne spécialement autorisée par le fabricant pour être utilisée avec cette radio.
• NE PAS émettre pendant plus de 50 % du temps total d’utilisation de l’appareil («50 % du facteur d'utilisation»). La notion «50% du facteur d’utilisation» s’applique également au mode VOX/PTT. Émettre pendant plus de 50 % du temps total d’utilisation peut causer une exposition aux RF supérieure aux limites établies par la FCC et d'IC. Lorsque le voyant DEL rouge s’allume, cette radio est en train d’émettre. La radio émettra si vous appuyez sur le bouton du microphone.
• TOUJOURS tenir l’antenne éloignée d’au moins 2,5 cm de votre corps au moment d’émettre et utiliser uniquement l’attache pour ceinture Icom illustrée à la p. 30, lorsque vous attachez la radio à votre ceinture, ou à autre chose, de façon à vous assurer de ne pas provoquer une exposition aux RF supérieure aux limites fixées par la FCC et d'IC. Pour offrir
à vos interlocuteurs la meilleure qualité de transmission possible, tenez l’antenne à au moins 5 cm de votre bouche et légèrement de côté.
Les renseignements ci-dessus fournissent à l’utilisateur toute l’information nécessaire sur l’exposition aux RF et sur ce qu’il faut faire pour assurer que cette radio fonctionne en respectant les limites d’exposition aux RF établies par la FCC et d'IC.
Interférence électromagnétique et compatibilité
En mode de transmission, votre radio Icom produit de l’énergie de RF qui peut provoquer des interférences avec d’autres appareils ou systèmes. Pour
éviter de telles interférences, mettez la radio hors tension dans les secteurs où une signalisation l’exige. NE PAS faire fonctionner l’émetteur dans des secteurs sensibles au rayonnement électromagnétique tels que les hôpitaux, les aéronefs et les sites de dynamitage.
Usage professionnel/contrôlé
Ce radio émetteur est utilisé dans des cas où des personnes sont exposées en raison de leur travail, pourvu qu’elles soient conscientes du risque d’exposition et qu’elles puissent exercer un contrôle sur cette exposition.
