Users Manual

UHF FM TRASCEIVER INSTRUCTION MANUAL © B62‑2525‑00 (M) Thank You We are grateful you have chosen KENWOOD for your land mobile radio applications. noTices To The user ◆ Government law prohibits the operation of unlicensed radio transmitters within the territories under government control. ◆ Illegal operation is punishable by fine and/or imprisonment. ◆ Refer service to qualified technicians only. Safety: It is important that the operator is aware of, and understands, hazards common to the operation of any transceiver. PrecauTions • Do not charge the battery pack when they are wet. • Ensure that there are no metallic items located between the transceiver and the battery pack. • If the transceiver part is damaged, do not touch the damaged parts. • If an earphone is connected to the transceiver, reduce the transceiver volume. Pay attention to the volume level when turning the squelch off. • Do not place the earphone cable around your neck while near machinery that may catch the cable. • Do not place the transceiver on unstable surfaces. If the transceiver switches OFF/ON as a result of falling or hard impact, the volume and channel configurations may reset. • Ensure that the end of the antenna does not touch your eyes. • Do not immerse the transceiver in water. • Always switch the transceiver power off before installing optional accessories. • Do not look directly at the LED light while it is lit. Information concerning the battery pack: The battery pack includes flammable objects such as organic solvent. Mishandling may cause the battery to rupture producing flames or extreme heat, deteriorate, or cause other forms of damage to the battery. Please observe the following prohibitive matters. • Do not disassemble or reconstruct the battery! The battery pack has a safety function and protection circuit to avoid danger. If they suffer serious damage, the battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into flame. • Do not short-circuit the battery! Do not join the + and – terminals using any form of metal (such as a paper clip or wire). Do not carry or store the battery pack in containers holding metal objects (such as wires, chain‑necklace or hairpins). If the battery pack is short‑circuited, excessive current will flow and the battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into flame. It will also cause metal objects to heat up. • Do not incinerate or apply heat to the battery! If the insulator is melted, the gas release vent or safety function is damaged, or the electrolyte is ignited, the battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into flame. • Do not leave the battery near fire, stoves, or other heat generators (areas reaching over 60°C)! If the polymer separator is melted due to high temperature, an internal short‑circuit may occur in the individual cells and the battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into flame. • Do not immerse the battery in water or get it wet by other means! If the battery’s protection circuit is damaged, the battery may charge at extreme current (or voltage) and an abnormal chemical reaction may occur. The battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into flame. • Do not charge the battery near fire or under direct sunlight! If the battery’s protection circuit is damaged, the battery may charge at extreme current (or voltage) and an abnormal chemical reaction may occur. The battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into flame. • Use only the specified charger and observe charging requirements! If the battery is charged in unspecified conditions (under high temperature over the regulated value, excessive high voltage or current over regulated value, or with a remodeled charger), it may overcharge or an abnormal chemical reaction may occur. The battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into flame. • Do not pierce the battery with any object, strike it with an instrument, or step on it! This may break or deform the battery, causing a short‑circuit. The battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into flame. • Do not jar or throw the battery! An impact may cause the battery to leak, generate heat or smoke, rupture, and/or burst into flame. If the battery’s protection circuit is damaged, the battery may charge at an abnormal current (or voltage), and an abnormal chemical reaction may occur. The battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into flame. • Do not use the battery pack if it is damaged in any way! The battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into flame. • Do not solder directly onto the battery! If the insulator is melted or the gas release vent or safety function is damaged, the battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into flame. • Do not reverse the battery polarity (and terminals)! When charging a reversed battery, an abnormal chemical reaction may occur. In some cases, an unexpected large amount of current may flow upon discharging. The battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into flame. • Do not reverse-charge or reverse-connect the battery! The battery pack has positive and negative poles. If the battery pack does not smoothly connect with a charger or operating equipment, do not force it; check the polarity of the battery. If the battery pack is reverse‑connected to the charger, it will be reverse‑charged and an abnormal chemical reaction may occur. The battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into flame. • Do not touch a ruptured and leaking battery! If the electrolyte liquid from the battery gets into your eyes, wash your eyes with fresh water as soon as possible, without rubbing your eyes. Go to the hospital immediately. If left untreated, it may cause eye‑problems. • Do not charge the battery for longer than the specified time! If the battery pack has not finished charging even after the regulated time has passed, stop it. The battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into flame. • Do not place t…

Grant Notes
Power output listed is at the antenna terminal on the device. Output Power is continuously variable 1.5W to 0.5W. This transmitter has been tested for SAR compliance in Push-to-Talk and body-worn operating configurations with a specific antenna(s), and only satisfies SAR limit for Occupational/Controlled RF Exposure Environment. Device must operate at a duty factor not exceeding 50%. Body-worn operations are restricted belt-clips, holsters or similar accessories that have no metallic component in the assembly. This device must be restricted to work related operations in an Occupational/Controlled RF exposure Environment. All qualified end-users of this device must have the knowledge to control their exposure conditions and/or duration to comply with Occupational Controlled SAR limit and requirements. A label, as described in this filing, must be displayed on the device to direct users to specific training information for meeting Occupational Exposure Requirements and users must be provided with the training information. The highest reported SAR values at 50% duty factor are - Head: 0.54 W/kg; Body-worn: 5.11 W/kg.
