are wet.
• Ensure that there are no metallic items located between the
transceiver and the battery pack.
• Do not use options not specified by KENWOOD.
• If the die-cast chassis or other transceiver part is damaged,
do not touch the damaged parts.

reduce the transceiver volume. Pay attention to the volume
level when turning the squelch off.
• Do not place the microphone cable around your neck while
near machinery that may catch the cable.
• Do not place the transceiver on unstable surfaces.
• Ensure that the end of the antenna does not touch your

• When the transceiver is used for transmission for many

• Always switch the transceiver power off before installing
optional accessories.
• The charger is the device that disconnects the unit from the
AC mains line. The AC plug should be readily accessible.
