W AR N IN G..our Icom radio generates RF electromagnetic en-ergy during transmit mode. This radio is designedfor and classified as “Occupational Use Only”,meaning it must be used only during the courseof employment by individuals aware of the haz-ards, and the ways to minimize such hazards. Thisradio is NOT intended for use by the “GeneralPopulation” in an uncontrolled environment.• For complance wth FCC and Industry Canada RF Exposure Re-qurements, the transmtter antenna nstallaton shall comply wththe followng two condtons:1. The transmtter antenna gan shall not exceed 0 dB.2. IC-F5061/F5061D:The antenna s requred to be located outsde of a vehcle andkept at a dstance of 48 centmeters or more between the trans-mttng antenna of ths devce and any persons durng operaton.For small vehcle as worst case, the antenna shall be located onthe roof top at any place on the centre lne along the vehcle norder to acheve 48 centmeters separaton dstance. In order toensure ths dstance s met, the nstallaton of the antenna mustbe mounted at least 48 centmeters away from the nearest edgeof the vehcle n order to protect aganst exposure to bystanders.2.

A proper antenna s the antenna suppledwth ths rado by the manufacturer or an antenna specfically au-thorzed by the manufacturer for use wth ths rado.• DO NOT transmt for more than 50% of total rado use tme (“50%duty cycle”). Transmttng more than 50% of the tme can causeFCC RF exposure complance requrements to be exceeded. Therado s transmttng when the “TX ndcator” lghts red. You cancause the rado to transmt by pressng the “PTT” swtch.Electromagnetic Interference/CompatibilityDurng transmssons, your Icom rado generates RF energy that canpossbly cause nterference wth other devces or systems. To avodsuch nterference, turn off the rado n areas where sgns are postedto do so. DO NOT operate the transmtter n areas that are senstveto electromagnetc radaton such as hosptals, arcraft, and blastngstes.194 SAFET.. TRAINING INFORMATION
