PRECAUTIONS
RWARNING! NEVER connect the OPC-254L to an
AC outlet. This may pose a fire hazard or result in an electric
shock.
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.
AVOID using or placing the receiver in direct sunlight or in
areas with temperatures below 0°C (+32°F) or above +60°C
(+140°F).
AVOID the use of chemical agents such as benzine or al-
cohol when cleaning, as they can damage the receiver’s sur-
faces.
DO NOT use the supplied CD for any other devices.
The CD is for the IC-PCR1500/R1500, IC-PCR2500/R2500
only.
DO NOT turn the main unit power OFF or disconnect the
USB cable between the main unit and PC while IC-PCR1500
or IC-PCR2500 control software is running. This may result
in the computer hang up.
DO NOT start vehicle engine while the IC-PCR1500 or IC-
PCR2500 control software is running off of the vehicle’s ciga-
rette lighter socket (optional CP-12L required). This may
result in the computer hang up.
DO NOT leave the main unit powered ON and connected
to a vehicle’s electrical system. The main unit draws approx.
550 mA. This will eventually drain the vehicle’s battery.
For DC power operation
(while connecting an OPC-254L or CP-12L)
NEVER connect the receiver to a power source of more
than 14 V DC. This will damage the receiver.
NEVER connect the receiver to a power source using re-
verse polarity. This will damage the receiver.
NEVER cut the DC power cable between the DC plug and
fuse holder. If an incorrect connection is made after cutting,
the receiver may be damaged.
If a connection cable is disconnected or has a loose connec-
tion during operation, an error may occur. Connect the con-
nectors correctly, and
DO NOT touch the connectors
during operation.
