CAUTIONS
RWARNING! NEVER connect the controller to an AC
outlet. This may pose a fire hazard or result in an electric
shock.
RWARNING NEVER transmit a distress call when
your vessel does not need immediate help. Distress calls can
be used only in times of emergency.
NEVER connect the controller to a power source of more
than 16 V DC. Such a connection will ruin the controller.
NEVER place the controller where normal operation of the
ship may be hindered or where it could cause bodily injury.
NEVER expose the controller to rain, snow or any liquids.
AVOID using or placing the controller in direct sunlight or in
areas with temperatures below –20°C (–4°F) or above +60°C
(+140°F).
KEEP the controller out of the reach of children.
KEEP the antenna cable and DC power cable as far away
as possible from electrical pumps, generators and other elec-
tronic instruments to prevent instrument malfunctions.
KEEP the controller and microphone at least 1 meter away
from your vessel’s magnetic navigation compass.
DO NOT operate the controller without running the ves-
sel’s engine. When your vessel’s engine is OFF and the con-
troller is transmitting, the vessel’s battery will soon become
exhausted.
DO NOT use chemical agents such as benzene or alcohol
when cleaning, as they can damage the terminal unit sur-
faces.
