R CAUTION! NEVER hold the transceiver so that the

antenna is very close to, or touching exposed parts of the

body, especially the face or eyes, while transmitting. The

transceiver will perform best if the microphone is 5 to 10 cm

(2 to 4 in.) away from the lips and the transceiver is vertical.

R CAUTION! NEVER operate the transceiver with a

headset or other audio accessories at high volume levels.

R CAUTION! NEVER short the terminals of the bat-

tery pack.

DO NOT push PTT when not actually desiring to transmit.

AVOID using or placing the transceiver in direct sunlight or

in areas with temperatures below –30°C (–22°F) or above

+60°C (+140°F).

The basic operations, transmission and reception of the trans-

ceiver are guaranteed within the speciﬁed operating temper-

ature range. However, the LCD display may not be operate

correctly, or show an indication in the case of long hours of

operation, or after being placed in extremely cold areas.

DO NOT modify the transceiver for any reason.

Optional unit installation should be done at authorized Icom

service center only.

The waterproof capability of the transceiver cannot be guar-

anteed if you install an unit yourself, or have it done at a non-

authorised dealer/service center.

BE CAREFUL! The IC-F70/F80 series transceivers

employ waterproof construction, which corresponds to IPX

waterproof specification, Grade 7 (1 m depth for 30 min.).

However, once the transceiver has been dropped, water-

prooﬁng cannot be guaranteed due to the fact that the trans-

ceiver may be cracked, or the waterproof seal damaged, etc.

For U.S.A. only

CAUTION: Changes or modiﬁcations to this transceiver, not

expressly approved by Icom Inc., could void your authority to

operate this transceiver under FCC regulations.

BATTERY CHARGING

■ Battery charging

Prior to using the transceiver for the first time, the battery

pack must be fully charged for optimum life and operation.

CAUTION: To avoid damage to the transceiver, turn the

power OFF while charging.

• Recommended temperature range for charging:

+10°C to +40°C (+50°F to +104°F)

• Use the specified chargers (BC-119N and BC-121N).

NEVER use another manufacture’s charger.

• Use the speciﬁed AC adapter. NEVER use another manu-

facture’s adapter.

■ Battery caution

R DANGER Charge the speciﬁed Icom batteries only.

Only tested and approved for use with genuine Icom batter-

ies. Fire and/or explosion may occur when a third party bat-

tery pack or counterfeit product is charged.

CAUTION! NEVER insert battery pack/transceiver (with the

battery pack attached) in a wet or soiled condition into the

charger. This may result in corrosion of the charger terminals

or damage to the charger. The charger is not waterproof and

water can easily get into it.

NEVER incinerate used battery packs. Internal battery gas

may cause an explosion.

NEVER immerse the battery pack in water. If the battery

pack becomes wet, be sure to wipe it dry BEFORE attaching

it to the transceiver.

NEVER short the terminals of the battery pack. Also, current

may ﬂow into nearby metal objects, such as a necklace, etc.

Therefore, be careful when carrying with, or placing near

metal objects, carrying in handbags, etc.

AVOID leaving the battery pack in a fully charged, or completely

discharged condition for long time. It causes shorter battery life.

In case of leaving the battery pack unused for a long time, it

must be kept safely after discharge, or use the battery until the

battery indicator appears, then remove it from the transceiver.

If your battery pack seems to have no capacity even after

being charged, fully charge the battery pack again. If the bat-

teries still do not retain a charge (or very little), new battery

pack must be purchased.

Recommendation:

Charge the supplied battery pack for a maximum of

up to 10 hours. Li-Ion batteries are different from Ni-

Cd batteries in that it is not necessary to completely

charge and discharge them to prolong the battery life.

Therefore, charging the battery in intervals, and not

for extended periods is recommended.

SAFETY TRAINING INFORMATION

Your Icom radio generates RF electromagnetic

energy during transmit mode. This radio is

designed for and classified as “Occupational

Use Only”, meaning it must be used only during

the course of employment by individuals aware

of the hazards, and the ways to minimize such

hazards. This radio is NOT intended for use by the “General

Population” in an uncontrolled environment.

This radio has been tested and complies with the FCC RF

exposure limits for “Occupational Use Only”. In addition, your

Icom radio 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 OET Bulletin 65 Edition 97-01 Supplement C,

Evaluating Compliance with FCC Guidelines for Human

Exposure to Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Fields.

• American National Standards Institute (C95.1-1992),

IEEE Standard for Safety Levels with Respect to Human

Exposure to Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Fields, 3

kHz to 300 GHz.

• American National Standards Institute (C95.3-1992),

IEEE Recommended Practice for the Measurement of

Potentially Hazardous Electromagnetic Fields– RF and

Microwave.

• The accessories (antennas, batteries, belt clips, speaker-

microphone, etc. that is listed on Pages 37–38) are

authorized for use with this product. Use of accessories

other than those speciﬁed may result in RF exposure lev-

els exceeding the FCC requirements for wireless RF

exposure.

To ensure that your expose to RF electro-

magnetic energy is within the FCC allow-

able limits for occupational use, always

adhere to the following guidelines:

• DO NOT operate the radio without a proper antenna

attached, as this may damaged 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 antenna specifically authorized by the

manufacturer for use with this radio.

• DO NOT transmit for more than 50% of total radio use

time (“50% duty cycle”). Transmitting more than 50% of

the time can cause FCC RF exposure compliance

requirements to be exceeded. The radio is transmitting

when the TX indicator lights red. You can cause the radio

to transmit by pressing the “PTT” switch or VOX function.

• ALWAYS keep the antenna at least 2.5 cm (1 inch) away

from the body when transmitting and only use the Icom

belt-clips listed on page 37 when attaching the radio to

your belt, etc., to ensure FCC RF exposure compliance

requirements are not exceeded. To provide the recipients

of your transmission the best sound quality, hold the

antenna at least 5 cm (2 inches) from your mouth, and

slightly off to one side.

The information listed above provides the user with the infor-

mation needed to make him or her aware of RF exposure,

and what to do to assure that this radio operates with the

FCC RF exposure limits of this radio.

SAFETY TRAINING INFORMATION

Electromagnetic Interference/Compatibility

During transmissions, your Icom radio generates RF energy

that can possibly cause interference with other devices or

systems. To avoid such interference, turn off the radio in

areas where signs are posted to do so. DO NOT operate the

transmitter in areas that are sensitive to electromagnetic radi-

ation such as hospitals, aircraft, and blasting sites.

Occupational/Controlled Use

The radio transmitter is used in situations in which persons

are exposed as consequence of their employment provided

those persons are fully aware of the potential for exposure

and can exercise control over their exposure.
