iiCLEAN THE TRANSCEIVER AND MICROPHONETHOROUGHLY WITH FRESH WATER after exposure towater including salt water, otherwise, the keys andswitches may become inoperable due to salt crystallization.IN CASE OF EMERGENCYIf your vessel requires assistance, contact other vessels andthe Coast Guard by sending a distress call on Ch 16.Or, transmit your distress call using digital selective calling onCh 70.USING CHANNEL 16DISTRESS CALL PROCEDURE1. “MAYDAY MAYDAY MAYDAY.”2. “THIS IS ...............” (name of vessel)3. Your call sign or other indication of the vessel (AND 9-digit DSC ID if you have one).4. “LOCATED AT ...............” (your position)5. The nature of the distress and assistance required.6. Any other information which might facilitate the rescue.USING DIGITAL SELECTIVE CALLING (Ch 70)DISTRESS CALL PROCEDURE1. While lifting up the switch cover, push and hold[[DISTRESSDISTRESS]]for 5 sec. until you hear 5 short beepschange to one long beep.2. Wait for an acknowledgment from a coast station.• Channel 16 is automatically selected.3. Push and hold [[PTTPTT]], then transmit the appropriateinformation as at above.NOTEA WARNING STICKER is supplied with the transceiver.To comply with FCC regulations, this sticker must be affixed insuch a location as to be readily seen from the operating con-trols of the radio as in the diagram below. Make sure the cho-sen location is clean and dry before applying the sticker. (p. viii)EXAMPLE
iiiDo not open the equipment.Only qualified personal should work inside the equipment.Do not disassemble or modify the equipment.Fire, electrical shock or serious injury can result.Turn off the power immediately if waterleaksinto the equipment or the equipment is em-mitting smoke or fire.Continued use of the equipment can cause fire or electricalshock.Any repair work must be done by a licensedradio technician.Improper repair work can cause electrical shock or fire.RRCAUTIONBE CAREFUL! The transceiver and optional FM-3010employ waterproof construction, which corresponds to JISwaterproof specification, Grade 7 (1 m/30 min.). However,once the transceiver or microphone has been dropped, wa-terproofing cannot be guaranteed due to the fact that thecase may be cracked, or the waterproof seal damaged, etc.AVOID the use of chemical agents such as benzine or al-cohol when cleaning, as they may damage the transceiversurfaces.RRCAUTIONRRSAFTY INSTRUCTIONFor the operatorDistances at which radiation levels of 100 and 10 W/m2existare given in the table.Distance to Distance to 100 W/m2point 10 W/m2point0.12 m 0.39 m
ivELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD Do not open the equipment un-less totally familiar with electri-cal circuits and service manual.Only qualified personal should work in-side the equipment.Be sure that the power supply is compatiblewith the voltage rating of the equipment.Connection of an incorrect power supply can cause fire orequipment damage. The voltage rating of the equipment ap-pears on the label above the power connector.Turn off the power at the switchboard beforebeginning the installation.Fire or electrical shock can result if the power is left on.DO NOT install the equipment where normal operation ofthe vessel may be hindered or where it could cause bodilyinjury.RRWARNINGDO NOT cut the DC power cable between the DC plugand fuse holder. If an incorrect connection is made after cut-ting, the equipment may be damaged.RRWARNINGGround the equipment to pre-vent electrical shock and mutualinterference.Observe the following compass safe dis-tances to prevent interference to a magneticcompass:RRCAUTIONFor the installerStandard Steerlingcompass compassTransceiver 0.95 m 0.65 m

4. Scan Operation114.1 Scan TypesScanning is an efficient way to locate signals quickly over awide frequency range. The transceiver has Priority scan andNormal scan.When the Weather alert function is in use, the selectedweather channel is checked while scanning. (p. 38)Set the tag channels (scanned channel) before scanning.Clear the tag channels which inconveniently stop scanning,such as those for digital communication use.Note: Choose Priority or Normal scan in Set mode. (p. 38)NORMAL SCANNormal scan, like Priority scan, searches through all tagchannels in sequence. However, unlike Priority scan,Channel 16 is not checked unless Channel 16 is set as atag channel.CH 01 CH 02CH 06CH 05 CH 04CH 03PRIORITY SCANPriority scan searches through all tag channels in se-quence while monitoring Channel 16. When a signal is de-tected on Channel 16, scan pauses until the signal disap-pears; when a signal is detected on a channel other thanChannel 16, scan becomes Dualwatch until the signal dis-appears.CH 06CH 01CH 16CH 02CH 05 CH 04CH 03

Not supplied with accsesories.• OVERHEAD MOUNTING• MOUNTING ON THE BOARDKEEP the transceiver and microphone at least 1meter away from your vessel’s magnetic navigationcompass.RRCAUTION
448.Connections and Maintenance8.5.2 Using the optional FM-3040An optional FM-3040 FLUSH MOUNT is available for mountingthe transceiver to a flat surface such as an instrument panel.qUsing the template on the last page, carefully cut a holeinto the instrument panel (or wherever you plan to mountthe transceiver).wSlide the transceiver through the hole as shown below.eAttach the 2 supplied bolts (M5 ×8 mm) on either side ofthe FM-3000.rAttach the clamps on either side of the FM-3000.• Make sure that the clamps align parallel to the FM-3000’s body.tTighten the end bolts on the clamps (rotate clockwise) sothat the clamps press firmly against the inside of the in-strument control panel.yTighten the locking nuts (rotate counterclockwise) so thatthe FM-3000 is securely mounted in position as below.uConnect the antenna and power cable, then return the in-strument control panel to its original place.KEEP the transceiver and microphone at least 1meter away from your vessel’s magnetic navigationcompass.RRCAUTION
458.Connections and Maintenance8.6 Optional Unit InstallationFollow the case opening procedure shown here when youwant to install an optional unit.qRemove the 6 screws as shown below and open the trans-ceiver.wRemove the 4 screws from the shielding plate, then lift upthe shielding plate.ePlug an optional unit (FM-3030) to J3 on the MAIN unit asshown below.rReturn the shielding plate and assemble the units to theiroriginal positions.Optional unitDISCONNECT the DC power cable from the trans-ceiver before performing any work on the trans-ceiver. Otherwise, there is danger of electric shockand/or equipment damage.RRCAUTION1. When re-assembling the case and tightening thescrews, you must keep the specified torque(0.7±0.1 N.m). Otherwise the transceiver may bedamaged (torque too high) or lose waterproof effi-ciency (torque too low).2. When uninstalling the optional unit, remove it ver-tically.

11. Operating Rules49DDPRIORITIES•Read all rules and regulations pertaining to priorities andkeep an up-to-date copy handy. Safety and distress callstake priority over all others.•You must monitor Channel 16 when you are not operatingon another channel.• False or fraudulent distress signals are prohibited and pun-ishable by law.DDPRIVACY• Information overheard but not intended for you cannot law-fully be used in any way.• Indecent or profane language is prohibited.DDRADIO LICENSES(1) SHIP STATION LICENSEYou must have a current radio station license before using thetransceiver. It is unlawful to operate a ship station which is notlicensed.Inquire through your dealer or the appropriate governmentagency for a Ship-Radiotelephone license application. Thisgovernment-issued license states the call sign which is yourcraft’s identification for radio purposes.(2) OPERATOR’S LICENSEA Restricted Radiotelephone Operator Permit is the licensemost often held by small vessel radio operators when a radiois not required for safety purposes.The Restricted Radiotelephone Operator Permit must beposted or kept with the operator. Only a licensed radio opera-tor may operate a transceiver.However, non-licensed individuals may talk over a transceiverif a licensed operator starts, supervises, ends the call andmakes the necessary log entries.Keep a copy of the current government rules and regulationshandy.Radio license for boaters (U.S.A. only)The Telecommunications Act of 1996 permits recreationalboaters to have and use a VHF marine radio, EPIRB, andmarine radar without having an FCC ship station license.Boaters traveling on international voyages, having an HFsingle sideband radiotelephone or marine satellite terminal,or required to carry a marine radio under any other regula-tion must still carry an FCC ship station license.
