PRECAUTIONS  
Do not charge the transceiver and battery pack when they  
are wet.  
Ensure that there are no metallic items located between the  
transceiver and the battery pack.  
Do not use options not specified by KENWOOD.  
If the die-cast chassis or other transceiver part is damaged,  
do not touch the damaged parts.  
If a headset or headphone is connected to the transceiver,  
reduce the transceiver volume. Pay attention to the volume  
level when turning the squelch off.  
Do not place the microphone cable around your neck while  
near machinery that may catch the cable.  
Do not place the transceiver on unstable surfaces.  
Ensure that the end of the antenna does not touch your  
eyes.  
When the transceiver is used for transmission for many  
hours, the radiator and chassis will become hot. Do not  
touch these locations when replacing the battery pack.  
Do not immerse the transceiver in water.  
Always switch the transceiver power off before installing  
optional accessories.  
The charger is the device that disconnects the unit from the  
AC mains line. The AC plug should be readily accessible.  
ii

Turn the transceiver power off in the following locations:  
In explosive atmospheres (inflammable gas, dust particles, metallic  
powders, grain powders, etc.).  
While taking on fuel or while parked at gasoline service stations.  
Near explosives or blasting sites.  
In aircrafts. (Any use of the transceiver must follow the instructions  
and regulations provided by the airline crew.)  
Where restrictions or warnings are posted regarding the use of  
radio devices, including but not limited to medical facilities.  
Near persons using pacemakers.  
Do not disassemble or modify the transceiver for any reason.  
Do not place the transceiver on or near airbag equipment while the  
vehicle is running. When the airbag inflates, the transceiver may  
be ejected and strike the driver or passengers.  
Do not transmit while touching the antenna terminal or if  
any metallic parts are exposed from the antenna covering.  
Transmitting at such a time may result in a high-frequency burn.  
If an abnormal odor or smoke is detected coming from the  
transceiver, switch the transceiver power off immediately,  
remove the battery pack from the transceiver, and contact your  
KENWOOD dealer.  
Use of the transceiver while you are driving may be against traffic  
laws. Please check and observe the vehicle regulations in your  
area.  
Do not expose the transceiver to extremely hot or cold conditions.  
Do not carry the battery pack (or battery case) with metal objects,  
as they may short the battery terminals.  
When operating the transceiver in areas where the air is dry, it is  
easy to build up an electric charge (static electricity). When using  
an earphone accessory in such conditions, it is possible for the  
transceiver to send an electric shock through the earphone and to  
your ear. We recommend you use only a speaker/microphone in  
these conditions, to avoid electric shocks.

Information concerning the battery pack:  
The battery pack includes flammable objects such as organic  
solvent. Mishandling may cause the battery to rupture  
producing flames or extreme heat, deteriorate, or cause other  
forms of damage to the battery. Please observe the following  
prohibitive matters.  
Do not disassemble or reconstruct battery!  
The battery pack has a safety function and protection circuit to  
avoid danger. If they suffer serious damage, the battery may  
generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into flame.  
Do not short-circuit the battery!  
Do not join the + and – terminals using any form of metal (such  
as a paper clip or wire). Do not carry or store the battery pack in  
containers holding metal objects (such as wires, chain-necklace or  
hairpins). If the battery pack is short-circuited, excessive current will  
flow and the battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst  
into flame. It will also cause metal objects to heat up.  
Do not incinerate or apply heat to the battery!  
If the insulator is melted, the gas release vent or safety function is  
damaged, or the electrolyte is ignited, the battery may generate  
heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into flame.  
Do not leave the battery near fire, stoves, or other heat  
generators (areas reaching over 80°C/ 176°F)!  
If the polymer separator is melted due to high temperature, an  
internal short-circuit may occur in the individual cells and the  
battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into flame.  
Do not immerse the battery in water or get it wet by other  
means!  
If the battery’s protection circuit is damaged, the battery may  
charge at extreme current (or voltage) and an abnormal chemical  
reaction may occur. The battery may generate heat or smoke,  
rupture, or burst into flame.  
Do not charge the battery near fire or under direct sunlight!  
If the battery’s protection circuit is damaged, the battery may  
charge at extreme current (or voltage) and an abnormal chemical  
reaction may occur. The battery may generate heat or smoke,

Use only the specified charger and observe charging  
requirements!  
If the battery is charged in unspecified conditions (under high  
temperature over the regulated value, excessive high voltage or  
current over regulated value, or with a remodeled charger), it may  
overcharge or an abnormal chemical reaction may occur. The  
battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into flame.  
Do not pierce the battery with any object, strike it with an  
instrument, or step on it!  
This may break or deform the battery, causing a short-circuit. The  
battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into flame.  
Do not jar or throw the battery!  
An impact may cause the battery to leak, generate heat or smoke,  
rupture, and/or burst into flame. If the battery’s protection circuit  
is damaged, the battery may charge at an abnormal current (or  
voltage), and an abnormal chemical reaction may occur. The  
battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into flame.  
Do not use the battery pack if it is damaged in any way!  
The battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into  
flame.

SIGNALING  
QT/ DQT  
The Encoder/Decoder function uses QT/ DQT to segregate  
talk groups, so users only hear calls from their own group.  
DTMF  
A DTMF PTT ID is included for dispatch operations or  
simple remote control applications.  
The DTMF decode capabilities include Selective Call ID,  
Transpond with ID, and “Wild Card” Group Calling.  
FleetSync  
Utilizing JVC KENWOOD’s FleetSync digital signaling  
protocol, this transceiver has PTT ID and Selective Calling  
capabilities for managed dispatch operations.  
For hazardous/hostile duty environments, a Side1 or Side  
2 key can be programmed for Emergency status to alert the  
dispatcher and/or operator in distress.  
MDC-1200  
The following features are available with the built-in MDC  
signaling: PTT ID Encode, Emergency Encode, Stun/  
Revive Decode, and Radio Check Decode.  
STUN  
When a transceiver is lost or stolen (for example), your  
dispatcher can transmit a stun code to that transceiver to  
disable transmission or transmission/reception. Stun can be  
cancelled with a stun reset code.  
BEGINNING/ END OF TRANSMISSION SIGNAL  
The Beginning/ End of Transmission identification signals are  
used to access some repeaters and telephone systems. The  
Beginning of Transmission ID signal is transmitted when you  
press the PTT switch and the End of Transmission ID signal is  
transmitted when you release the PTT switch.
