product should provide you with years of trouble-free operation.
RWARNING! NEVER operate the transceiver while
driving a vehicle. Safe driving requires your full attention—
IMPORTANT anything less may result in an accident.
NEVER connect the transceiver to a power source of more
than 16 V DC. This will ruin the transceiver.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS carefully and com-
pletely before using the transceiver. NEVER connect the transceiver to a power source using
reverse polarity. This will ruin the transceiver.
SAVE THIS INSTRUCTION MANUAL—This in-
struction manual contains important operating instructions for NEVER cut the DC power cable between the DC plug and
