SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING

ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD

Do not open the equipment.

Only qualified personnel
should work inside the

switch before servicing the

antenna unit. Post a warn-

ing sign near the switch

indicating it should not be

turned on while the antenna

unit is being serviced.

Prevent the potential risk of
being struck by the rotating
antenna and exposure to
RF radiation hazard.

Wear a safety belt and hard

hat when working on the

antenna unit.

Serious injury or death can
result if someone falls from
the radar antenna mast.

Do not disassemble or modify the

equipment.

Fire, electrical shock or serious injury can

WARNING

Radio Frequency
Radiation Hazard

The radar antenna emits electromagnetic
radio frequency (RF) energy which can be
harmful, particularly to your eyes. Never
look directly into the antenna aperture from
a close distance while the radar is in
operation or expose yourself to the trans-
mitting antenna at a close distance.

Distances at which RF radiation levels of
100 and 10 W/m

2

exist are given in the

table below.

Note: If the antenna unit is installed at a
close distance in front of the wheel house,
your administration may require halt of
transmission within a certain sector of
antenna revolution. This is possible - Ask
your FURUNO representative or dealer to
provide this feature.
