BEFORE YOU BEGIN

CONNECTING AC POWER

Before connecting the AC power, check the label on the rear panel which indicates the AC mains voltage for which your transceiver is currently set. If the voltage on this label does not match your AC mains voltage, a switch on the internal power supply in the transceiver must be moved. This requires only a screwdriver and is not difficult (see below), but you should make sure the power supply is set up correctly before connecting power. Always use a 10- Amp fuse in the fuse holder, whether operating on 100 - 120 VAC or 200 - 240 VAC. Do not use an improper fuse. If you have any doubts about the procedure, contact your dealer for assistance.

After making certain the AC voltage for which the transceiver is set matches your mains voltage, connect the AC power cord to the 3-pin AC jack on the rear panel. Wait until all other transceiver interconnections have been made before connecting the other end of the power cord to the wall outlet.

CAUTION

Permanent damage will result if improper AC supply voltage is applied to the transceiver.

Your warranty does not cover damage caused by application of improper supply voltage, or use of an improper fuse.

AC Input Voltage Selection

￿ Make certain that all cables are disconnected from the transceiver.

￿Remove the three screws from each side of the trans- ceiver, and three screws from the top edge of the rear panel. Slide the top cover toward to the rear about

1/2 inch (1 cm), then remove the top cover.

￿ Locate the voltage selector switch on the power supply unit at the left side of the transceiver (just behind the Main [POWER] switch).

￿Move the AC range switch to the “115” position for operation from 100 - 120 VAC, or to the “230” posi- tion for operation from 200 - 240 VAC.

￿Replace the top cover and its nine screws.

￿Always use the 10-Amp fuse in the fuse holder, whether

operating on 100 - 120 VAC or 200 - 240 VAC.

￿ Change the voltage marking on the label on the rear panel to match the new voltage setting.

200-240 VAC 100-120 VAC
