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. CLEAN THE TRANSCEIVER AND MICROPHONE THOR- OUGHLY WITH FRESH WATER after exposure to water including salt, otherwise, the keys and switch may become inoperable due to salt crystallization. For Canada: This device complies with RSS-310 of Industry Canada. Op- eration is subject to the condition that this device does not cause harmful interference. Cet appareil est conforme au CNR-310 d’Industrie Canada. Son exploitation est autorisee sous reserve que l’appareil ne cause pas de brouillage prejudiciable. If your vessel requires assistance, contact other vessels and the Coast Guard by sending a Distress call on Channel 16. Or, transmit your Distress call using digital selective calling on Channel 70. USING CHANNEL 16 DISTRESS CALL PROCEDURE 1. “MAYDAY MAYDAY MAYDAY.” 2. “THIS IS ...............” (name of vessel). 3. Say your call sign or other description of the vessel (AND 9 digit DSC ID if you have one). 4. “LOCATED AT ...............” (your position). 5. State the nature of the distress and assistance re- quired. 6. Give any other information which might facilitate the rescue. USING DIGITAL SELECTIVE CALLING (Ch 70) DISTRESS CALL PROCEDURE 1. While lifting up the key cover, hold down [DIS- TRESS] for 3 seconds until you hear 3 short beeps and then one long beep. 2. Wait for an acknowledgment on Channel 70 from a coast station. s!FTERTHEACKNOWLEDGEMENTISRECEIVED #HANNELIS automatically selected. 3. Hold down [PTT], then transmit the appropriate in- formation as listed above. ii IN CASE OF EMERGENCY iii RADIO OPERATOR WARNING WARNING Icom requires the radio operator to meet the FCC Requirements for Radio Frequency Expo- sure. An omnidirectional antenna with gain not greater than 9 dBi must be mounted a mini- mum of 5 meters (measured from the lowest point of the antenna) vertically above the main deck and all possible personnel. This is the minimum safe separation distance estimated to meet all RF exposure com- pliance requirements. This 5 meter distance is based on the FCC Safe Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE) distance of 3 meters added to the height of an adult (2 meters) and is appropriate for all vessels. For watercraft without suitable structures, the antenna must be mounted so as to maintain a minimum of 1 meter verti- cally between the antenna, (measured from the lowest point of the antenna), to the heads of all persons AND all persons must stay outside of the 3 meter MPE radius. Do not transmit with radio and antenna when persons are within the MPE radius of the antenna, unless such persons (such as driver or radio operator) are shielded from antenna field by a grounded metallic barrier. The MPE Radius is the minimum distance from the antenna axis that person should maintain in order to avoid RF exposure higher than the al- lowable MPE level set by FCC. FAILURE TO OBSERVE THESE LIMITS MAY ALLOW THOSE WITHIN THE MPE RADIUS TO EXPERIENCE RF RADIATION ABSORPTION WHICH EXCEEDS THE FCC MAXIMUM PERMISSIBLE EXPOSURE (MPE) LIMIT. IT IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE RADIO OPERATOR TO ENSURE THAT THE MAXIMUM PERMISSIBLE EXPO- SURE LIMITS ARE OBSERVED AT ALL TIMES DURING RADIO TRANSMISSION. THE RADIO OPERATOR IS TO ENSURE THAT NO BYSTANDERS COME WITHIN THE RADIUS OF THE MAXIMUM PERMISSIBLE EXPOSURE LIMITS. Determining MPE Radius THE MAXIMUM PERMISSIBLE EXPOSURE (MPE) RA- DIUS HAS BEEN ESTIMATED TO BE A RADIUS OF ABOUT 3M PER OET BULLETIN 65 OF THE FCC. THIS ESTIMATE IS MADE ASSUMING THE MAXIMUM POWER OF THE RADIO AND ANTENNAS WITH A MAXI- MUM GAIN OF 9dBi ARE USED FOR A SHIP MOUNTED SYSTEM. iv 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 AVERTISSEMENT POUR LES OPÉRATEURS RADIO Icom exige que l'opérateur radio se conforme aux exigences de la FCC en matière d'exposition aux radiofréquences. Une antenne omnidirectionnelle dont le gain ne dépasse pas 9dBi doit être fixée à une distance minimale de 5 mètres (mesurée depuis le point le plus bas de l'antenne) verticale- ment au-dessus du pont principal et de tout le personnel qui peut s'y trouver. Il s'agit de la distance de sécurité minimale prévue pour satisfaire aux exigences de conformité en matière d'exposition aux RF. Cette distance de 5 mètres est établie en fonction de l'exposition maximale admissible sécuritaire de 3 mètres établie par la FCC, à laquelle on ajoute la hauteur d'un adulte (2 mètres); cette distance convient pour tous les navires. Dans le cas des embarcations sans structure convenable, l'antenne doit être fixée de façon à maintenir une distance minimale de 1 mètre verticalement entre cette antenne (mesurée depuis son point le plus bas) et la tête de toute personne présente; toutes les personnes présentes doivent s…
