RCAUTION • Single body installation
Magnets are used for the controller’s attachment to the main
unit.

NEVER hold the whole unit by the controller only when carry-
ing the transceiver. Carry the transceiver holding the main
unit. If held by the controller, the main unit may drop off and
may result in injury to the person carrying it or damage the
transceiver.
NEVER attach the controller on the main unit’s top cover, par-
ticularly around the internal speaker grill. It may cause the
contents of the CPU and memory device could be deleted.
Please note that the controller may drop off when a high im-
