NOTE:
• Keep the battery pack attached, even when
using an external power supply.
• Even when the transceiver power is OFF, a small
current still flows in the transceiver. Remove the
battery pack from the transceiver when not using
it for a long time. Otherwise, the attached battery
pack will become exhausted.
• When the temperature is around 0°C (+32°F) or
below, the battery protection function automatically
sets transceiver power to 0.5 W, and disables
power selections (1 W, 2.5 W, 5 W, and 10 W*).
* “10 W” can be selected only when using an
external DC power supply.
