iTurn the transceiver power off in the following locations:• In explosive atmospheres (inflammable gas, dust particles, metallicpowders, grain powders, etc.).• While taking on fuel or while parked at gasoline service stations.• Near explosives or blasting sites.• In aircrafts. (Any use of the transceiver must follow the instructionsand regulations provided by the airline crew.)• Where restrictions or warnings are posted regarding the use ofradio devices, including but not limited to medical facilities.• Near persons using pacemakers.• Do not disassemble or modify the transceiver for any reason.• Do not place the transceiver on or near airbag equipment while thevehicle is running. When the airbag inflates, the transceiver maybe ejected and strike the driver or passengers.• Do not transmit while touching the antenna terminal or ifany metallic parts are exposed from the antenna covering.Transmitting at such a time may result in a high-frequency burn.• If an abnormal odor or smoke is detected coming from thetransceiver, switch the transceiver power off immediately,remove the battery pack from the transceiver, and contact yourKENWOOD dealer.• Use of the transceiver while you are driving may be against trafficlaws. Please check and observe the vehicle regulations in yourarea.• Do not expose the transceiver to extremely hot or cold conditions.• Do not carry the battery pack (or battery case) with metal objects,as they may short the battery terminals.• When operating the transceiver in areas where the air is dry, it iseasy to build up an electric charge (static electricity). When usingan earphone accessory in such conditions, it is possible for thetransceiver to send an electric shock through the earphone and toyour ear. We recommend you use only a speaker/microphone inthese conditions, to avoid electric shocks.
