INSTRUCTIONS
DC POWER SUPPLY
PS-126

Thank you for purchasing the PS-126 DC POWER SUPPLY. The power supply is designed to use with an Icom HF or VHF/UHF all mode transceiver.
Please read these instructions thoroughly before operating the PS-126.

PRECAUTIONS

WARNING! NEVER apply AC voltage that exceeds the specified voltage to the PS-126’s AC power cable. Excessive voltage could cause a fire or ruin the power supply.
WARNING! Immediately turn the power supply OFF and remove the AC power cable if it emits an abnormal odor, sound or smoke.
Contact your Icom dealer or distributor for advice.
CAUTION! NEVER let metal, wire or other objects touch any internal parts through the slits of the case or terminals on the rear panel of the power supply. This may result in an electric shock.
CAUTION! NEVER connect the power supply to a DC power source using reverse polarity. This will damage the power supply.
CAUTION! NEVER open the top cover.
There are no user adjustment parts. Opening the case may expose you to electric shock and incorrect reassembly may cause a fire hazard.
CAUTION! NEVER put the power supply in any unstable place (such as on a slanted surface or vibrating area). This may cause injury to you and/or damage to the power supply.
CAUTION! The socket-outlet must be near the DC power supply and must be easily accessible.
USE INDOORS ONLY! NEVER expose the power supply to rain, snow or any liquids.
DO NOT use or place the power supply in areas with temperatures below —10°C or above +40°C.
DO NOT use chemical agents such as benzine or alcohol when cleaning, as they can damage the power supply’s surfaces.
DO NOT place the power supply against walls or put anything behind the power supply. This will obstruct heat dissipation.
KEEP the power supply out of the reach of children.
USE an AC outlet that can supply more than 750 VA capacity. AVOID the use of a multiplug adaptor.
