INSTRUCTIONS Thank you for choosing this Icom product. READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS carefully and completely before using this product. SATELLITE ANTENNA AH-41 1-1-32 Kamiminami, Hirano-ku, Osaka 547-0003, Japan AXXXXW-1EX Printed in Japan © 2020 Icom Inc. Jul. 2020 PRECAUTIONS RWARNING HIGH RF VOLTAGE! NEVER touch an antenna or antenna connector while transmitting. This could cause an electrical shock or burn. RWARNING HIGH RF VOLTAGE! NEVER install the antenna at any place that person easily touch the antenna while transmitting. This could cause an electrical shock or burn. RWARNING! NEVER disassemble, modify or repair the antenna. This may result in an electrical shock, cause a fi re or damage the antenna. RWARNING! NEVER touch the antenna with wet hands. This may result in an electrical shock or damage the antenna. CAUTION: DO NOT put the antenna in any unstable place, such as on a slanted surface or a place that vibrates. This may cause an injury and/or damage the antenna. CAUTION: DO NOT use the antenna in strong magnetic fi elds or in an area with high static electricity. This could damage the antenna. CAUTION: DO NOT use harsh solvents such as benzine or alcohol to clean the antenna, as they can damage the antenna’s surfaces. If the antenna becomes dusty or dirty, wipe it clean with a dry, soft cloth. CAUTION: The antenna meets IP67 requirements for dust- tight and waterproof protection. However, once the antenna has been dropped, dust-tight and waterproof protection cannot be guaranteed because of possible damage to the antenna’s case or the waterproof seal. DO NOT place or leave the antenna in excessively dusty environments. EXPLICIT DEFINITIONS WORDDEFINITION RWARNING! Personal injury, fi re hazard or electric shock may occur. CAUTIONEquipment damage may occur. NOTEIf disregarded, inconvenience only. No risk of personal injury, fi re or electric shock. DISPOSAL The crossed-out wheeled-bin symbol on your product, literature, or packaging reminds you that in the European Union, all electrical and electronic products, batteries, and accumulators (rechargeable batteries) must be taken to designated collection locations at the end of their working life. Do not dispose of these products as unsorted municipal waste. Dispose of them according to the laws in your area.

SAFETY TRAINING INFORMATION Your Icom antenna generates RF electromagnetic energy while transmitting. This antenna is designed for and classifi ed as for “Occupational Use Only.” This means it must be used only during the course of employment by individuals aware of the hazards, and the ways to minimize such hazards. This antenna is NOT intended for use by the “General Population” in an uncontrolled environment. This antenna has been tested and complies with the FCC and IC RF exposure limits for “Occupational Use Only”. In addition, your Icom antenna complies with the following Standards and Guidelines with regard to RF energy and electromagnetic energy levels and evaluation of such levels for exposure to humans: • FCC KDB Publication 447498 D03, Evaluating Compliance with FCC Guidelines for Human Exposure to Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Fields. • American National Standards Institute (C95.1-2010), IEEE Standard for Safety Levels with Respect to Human Exposure to Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Fields, 3 kHz to 300 GHz. • American National Standards Institute (C95.3-2002), IEEE Recommended Practice for the Measurement of Potentially Hazardous Electromagnetic Fields– RF and Microwave. • The accessories listed on this sheet are authorized for use with this product. Use of accessories other than those specifi ed may result in RF exposure levels exceeding the FCC requirements for wireless RF exposure. • Health Canada Safety Code 6 - Limits of Human Exposure to Electromagnetic Energy in the Frequency Range from 3 kHz to 300 GHz. To ensure that your expose to RF electromagnetic energy is within the FCC allowable limits for occupational use, always adhere to the following guidelines: •DO NOT operate the radio without a proper antenna attached, as this may damage the radio and may also cause you to exceed FCC RF exposure limits. A proper antenna is the antenna supplied with this radio by the manufacturer or an antenna specifi cally authorized by the manufacturer for use with this radio. • DO NOT transmit for more than 50% of the total radio use time (“50% duty cycle”). Transmitting more than 50% of the time can cause FCC RF exposure compliance requirements to be exceeded. •ALWAYS keep the antenna at least 20 cm (7.9 inch) away from the body when transmitting to ensure FCC and IC RF exposure compliance requirements are not exceeded. The information listed above provides the user with th…
