Thank you for purchasing the IC-F12/S, F22/S FM transceiver.

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS carefully and completely before using

the transceiver.

SAVE THIS INSTRUCTION MANUAL–This instruction manual

contains important operating instructions for the transceiver.

IMPORTANT

RCAUTION! NEVER hold the transceiver so that the antenna is

very close to, or touching exposed parts of the body, especially the

face or eyes, while transmitting. The transceiver will perform best if

the microphone is 2 to 4 in. (5 to 10 cm) away from the lips and the

transceiver is vertical.

RCAUTION! NEVER operate the transceiver with a headset or

other audio accessories at high volume levels.

RCAUTION! NEVER short the terminals of the battery pack.

DO NOT push the PTT when not actually desiring to transmit.

AVOID using or placing the transceiver in direct sunlight or in areas

with temperatures below –10°C (+14°F) or above +50°C (+122°F).

DO NOT modify the transceiver for any reason.

KEEP the transceiver from the heavy rain, and Never immerse it in

the water. The transceiver construction is water resistant, not

water proof.

The use of non-Icom battery packs/chargers may impair transceiver

performance and invalidate the warranty.

FCC caution: Changes or modiﬁcations to this transceiver, not

expressly approved by Icom Inc., could void your authority to op-

erate this transceiver under FCC regulations.

BATTERY PACKS

‘‘Battery cautions

•CAUTION! NEVER short the terminals of the battery pack (or

charging terminals of the transceiver). Also, current may ﬂow into

nearby metal objects such as a necklace, so be careful when plac-

ing battery packs (or the transceiver) in handbags, etc.

Simply carrying with or placing near metal objects such as a neck-

lace, etc. causes shorting. This will damage not only the battery

pack, but also the transceiver.

•NEVER incinerate used battery packs. Internal battery gas may

cause an explosion.

•NEVER immerse the battery pack in water. If the battery pack be-

comes wet, be sure to wipe it dry BEFORE attaching it to the

transceiver.

•Clean the battery terminals to avoid rust or miss contact.

•Keep battery contacts clean. It’s a good idea to clean battery ter-

minals once a week.

If your battery pack seems to have no capacity even after being

charged, completely discharge them, then fully charge the battery

pack again. If the battery pack still does not retain a charge (or only

very little charge), a new battery pack must be purchased.

DDRecycling information (U.S.A. only)

The battery (BP-209, BP-210 or BP-222) that you

have purchased is recyclable. At the end of its life,

under various state and local laws, it may be illegal

to dispose of this battery into the municipal waste

stream. Call 1-800-822-8837 for battery recycling

options in your area or contact your dealer.
