Battery case (Option)

When using a BP-208N OPTIONAL BATTERY CASE attached to
the transceiver, install 6 AA (LR6) size alkaline batteries as illus-
trated below.

NOTE: 

Output power is automatically reduced to 1 W to retain suffi-
cient power in case of an emergency, etc.

CAUTIONS

• Use

ALKALINE 

batteries only.

• 

Make sure

all battery cells are the same brand, type and ca-

pacity.

• 

Never

mix old and new batteries.

Either of the above may cause a fire hazard or damage the
transceiver, if ignored.

• 

Never

incinerate used battery cells since internal battery gas

may cause them to rupture.

• 

Never

expose a detached battery case to water.

If the battery case gets wet, be sure to wipe it dry before using
it.
