AVOID using or placing the transceiver in direct sunlight or in areas
with temperatures below +14°F (–10°C) or above +122°F (+50°C).
The basic operations, transmission and reception of the transceiver,

terproof.
The use of non-Icom battery packs/chargers may impair transceiver
performance and invalidate the warranty.
