■Antenna

A key element in the performance of any communication sys- tem is an antenna. Ask your dealer about antennas and the best places to mount them.

■Fuse replacement

One fuse is installed in the supplied DC power cable. If a fuse blows or the transceiver stops functioning, track down the source of the problem, if possible, and replace the damaged fuse with a new, rated one.

Fuse rating: 10 A

■Cleaning

If the transceiver becomes dusty or dirty, wipe it clean with a soft, dry cloth.

AVOID the use of solvents such as benzene or al- cohol, as they may damage transceiver surfaces.
