ACCESSORY ATTACHMENT

■

Antenna

Insert the supplied antenna into the
antenna connector and screw down
the antenna as shown at left.

NEVER

carr y the transceiver by

holding the antenna.

KEEP

the jack cover attached when

jack is not in use to protect the con-
nector from dust and moisture.

✔

For your information

Third-party antennas may increase transceiver perform-

ance. An optional AD-92SMA

ANTENNA

CONNECTOR

ADAPTER

is available to connect an antenna with a BNC

connector.

■

Belt clip

■

Hand strap

Slide the hand strap through the
loop on the top of the belt clip as
illustrated at left to facilitate carrying
the transceiver.

■

Battery pack

Attach the Li-Ion battery pack

(BP-256)

or battery case

(BP-257)

as illustrated below.

• Charge the Li-Ion battery pack before use. (pgs. 10, 11)

Jack cover

Handstrap

Supplied screws*

*NOTE:

USE

the supplied screws

only. Using screws longer
than specified could damage
the transceiver.

Battery pack/Battery case

Latch

CAUTION!:
NEVER

attach or detach the battery

pack when wet.

Be careful

when releasing the latch.

Because the latch is tightly locked,
don’t use a finger nail to open it—
you may injure yourself. Instead, use
something relatively flat, like the
edge of a coin or the tip of a
screwdriver, to carefully release the
latch.
