SAFETY TRAINING INFORMATION

Your Icom radio generates RF electromagnetic energy during

transmit mode.

This radio has been evaluated for compliance at the distance

of 2.5 cm with the FCC RF exposure limits for “Occupational

Use Only”. In addition, your Icom radio complies with the fol-

lowing Standards and Guidelines with regard to RF energy

and electromagnetic energy levels and evaluation of such lev-

els for exposure to humans:

• FCC OET Bulletin 65 Edition 97-01 Supplement C, Evaluating Compliance

with FCC Guidelines for Human Exposure to Radio Frequency Electro-

magnetic Fields.

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

Safety Levels with Respect to Human Exposure to Radio Frequency Elec-

tromagnetic 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 following accessories are authorized for use with this product. Use of

accessories other than those speciﬁed may result in RF exposure levels

exceeding the FCC requirements for wireless RF exposure.; Belt Clip

(MB-86, MB-103Y), Rechargeable Ni-Cd Battery Pack (BP-224) and

Lithium Battery Pack (BP-234).

To ensure that your expose to RF electromagnetic en-

ergy is within the FCC allowable limits for occupational

use, always adhere to the following guidelines:

CAUTION

WARNING

• DO NOT operate the radio without a proper antenna attached, as this may

damaged the radio and may to exceed FCC RF exposure limits. A proper

antenna is the antenna supplied with this radio by the manufacturer or an

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 expo-

sure 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.

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

when transmitting and only use the Icom belt-clips which are listed on

page 33 when attaching the radio to your belt, etc., to ensure FCC RF ex-

posure compliance requirements are not exceeded.To provide the recipi-

ents of your transmission the best sound quality, hold the radio in an

almost vertical position at least 5 cm (2 inches) from your mouth, the mi-

crophone is located next to the speaker, so you shoud “talk into the

speaker”.

The information listed above provides the user with the information needed to

make him or her aware of RF exposure, and what to do to assure that this radio

operates within FCC RF exposure limits.

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 radiation such as

hospitals, aircraft, and blasting sites.

IN CASE OF EMERGENCY

If your vessel requires assistance, contact other vessels and

the Coast Guard by sending a distress call on Channel 16.

WORD DEFINITION

RWARNING

CAUTION

NOTE

Personal injury, fire hazard or electric shock

may occur.

If disregarded, inconvenience only. No risk

of personal injury, fire or electric shock.

Equipment damage may occur.

PRECAUTION

RWARNING! NEVER connect the transceiver to an

AC outlet. This may pose a ﬁre hazard or result in an electric

shock.

RWARNING! NEVER hold the transceiver so that the

antenna is closer than 2.5 cm (1 inch) from 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 inches) away from the lips and the transceiver is verti-

cal.

NEVER connect the transceiver to a power source other

than the BP-224 or BP-234. Such a connection will ruin the

transceiver.

AVOID using or placing the transceiver in direct sunlight or

in areas with temperatures below –20°C (–4°F) or above

+60°C (+140°F).

KEEP the transceiver out of the reach of children.

KEEP the transceiver at least 0.9 meters (3.0 ft) away from

your vessel’s magnetic navigation compass.

MAKE SURE the ﬂexible antenna and battery pack are

securely attached to the transceiver, and that the antenna and

battery pack are dry before attachment. Exposing the inside

of the transceiver to water will result in serious damage to the

transceiver.

BE CAREFUL! The IC-GM1600 employs waterproof

construction, which corresponds to JIS waterproof speciﬁca-

tion, Grade 7 (1 m; 3 ft depth for 30 min.). However, once the

transceiver has been dropped, waterprooﬁng cannot be guar-

anteed due to the fact that the transceiver may be cracked,

or the waterproof seal damaged, etc.

DRadio licenses

(1) SHIP STATION LICENSE

When your craft is equipped with a VHF FM transceiver, you

must have a current radio station license before using the

transceiver. It is unlawful to operate a ship station which is not

licensed.

Inquire through your dealer or the appropriate government

agency for a Ship-Radiotelephone license. This license in-

cludes the call sign which is your craft’s identiﬁcation for radio

purposes.

(2) OPERATOR’S LICENSE

A restricted Radiotelephone Operator Permit is the license

most often held by small vessel radio operators when a radio

is not required for safety purposes.

The Restricted Radiotelephone Operator Permit must be

posted near the transceiver or be kept with the operator. Only

a licensed radio operator may operate a transceiver.

However, non-licensed individuals may talk over a transceiver

if a licensed operator starts, supervises, ends the call and

makes the necessary log entries.

A current copy of the applicable government rules and regu-

lations is only required to be on hand for vessels in which a

radio telephone is compulsory. However, even if you are not

required to have these on hand it is your responsibility to be

thoroughly acquainted with all pertinent rules and regulations.
