PRECAUTION
RWARNING! NEVER operate the receiver with a earphone, headphones or other audio accessories at high volume levels. Hearing experts advise against continuous high volume operation. If you experience a ringing in your ears, reduce the volume level or discontinue use.
NEVER expose the receiver to rain, snow or any liquids.

The receiver may be damaged.
NEVER operate or touch the receiver with wet hands. This may result in an electric shock or damage the receiver. NEVER solder the battery cell. This may damage the battery.
RWARNING! NEVER connect the receiver to an AC

outlet. This may pose a fire hazard or result in an electric shock.
RWARNING! NEVER operate the receiver while driving a vehicle. Safe driving requires your full attentionanything less may result in an accident.
AVOID using or placing the receiver in direct sunlight or in areas with temperatures below 10C (+14F) or above +60C (+140F). AVOID the use of chemical agents such as benzine or alcohol when cleaning, as they can damage the receivers surfaces. Even when the receiver power is OFF, a slight current still ows in the circuits. Remove batteries from the receiver when not using it for a long time. Otherwise, the installed batteries will become exhausted, and will need to be recharged.
RWARNING! NEVER throw a battery cell into a re

since as internal battery gas can cause explosion.
RWARNING! NEVER disassemble the battery cell. If

the battery cells internal material (electrolyte liquid) gets into your eyes, wash your eyes with water and obtain treatment from an eye doctor immediately.
NEVER connect the receiver to a power source of more than 6 V DC directly. This will damage the receiver. NEVER connect the receiver to a power source using reverse polarity. This will damage the receiver. For U.S.A. only
CAUTION: Changes or modications to this device, not expressly approved by Icom Inc., could void your authority to operate this device under FCC regulations. ii

OPERATING THEORY
Electromagnetic radiation which has frequencies of 20,000 Hz (20 kHz*) and above is called radio frequency (RF) energy because it is useful in radio transmissions. The IC-R5 receives RF energy from 0.150 MHz* to 1309.995 MHz and converts it into audio frequency (AF) energy which in turn actuates a loudspeaker to create sound waves. AF energy is in the range of 20 to 20,000 Hz.
*kHz is an abbreviation of kilohertz or 1000 hertz, MHz is abbreviation of megahertz or 1,000,000 hertz, where hertz is a unit of frequency.
OPERATING NOTES
q Antenna 1 w Hand strap 1 e Belt clip 1 r Ni-Cd battery cells 2 t AC adapter* 1
*Not supplied with UK and Italy versions. Not supplied with Italy version.
The IC-R5 may receive its own oscillated frequency, resulting in no reception or only noise reception, on some frequencies. The IC-R5 may receive interference from extremely strong signals on different frequencies or when using an external high-gain antenna.

BATTERY CHARGING
NEVER incinerate used battery cells. Internal battery gas may cause explosion. If your re-chargeable batteries seem to have no capacity even after being charged, completely discharge them by leaving the power ON overnight. Then fully charge the batteries again. If the batteries still does not retain a charge (or very little charge), a new battery cells must be purchased.
I Battery installation
Before installing, or replacing the batteries, push [PWR] for 1 sec. to turn the power OFF. qRemove the battery cover from the receiver. wInstall 2 R6 (AA) size NiCd or Ni-MH batteries.
Be sure to observe the correct polarity.
D Charging caution RWARNING! NEVER charge dry or alkaline batteries.

AVOID over charging The installed re-chargeable batteries can be charged during operation when the AC adapter or the optional cigarette lighter cable is connected. To prevent over charging, the IC-R5 has charging timer that automatically disconnecting the charging line electronically after 15 hours from charging. However, the charging timer will reset and start charging again when disconnect then re-connecting the AC adapter or CP-18A/E more than 1 min. interval. Recommended temperature for charging: 0C to +40C (; +32F to +140F) Connect the supplied (or optional for UK and Italy versions) AC adapter or optional cigarette lighter cable only when charging the installed Ni-Cd or Ni-MH batteries. NEVER use other manufactures chargers. CAUTION: BE SURE to disconnect the CP-18A/E from the cigarette lighter socket when charging is nished, because, a slight current still follows in the CP-18A/E and the vehicles battery will become exhausted.
Keep the battery contacts clean to avoid rust or poor contact. Its a good idea to clean the battery terminals once a week.
I Caution
D Battery caution
CAUTION! NEVER short the battery terminals. Also, current may ow into nearby metal objects such as a necklace, so be careful when placing battery cells in handbags, etc. NEVER mix old and new batteries. Make sure all battery cells are the same brand, type and capacity. Either of the above may cause a re hazard or damage the receiver if ignored. 5

Duplex communication uses 2 different frequencies for transmitting and receiving. Generally, duplex is used in communication through a repeater, some utility communications, etc. During duplex operation, the transmit station frequency is shifted from the receive station frequency by the offset frequency. Repeater information (offset frequency and shift direction) can be programmed into memory channels. (p. 16)
