BATTERY CHARGING
5
If your Ni-MH battery pack seems to have no capacity, even after
being charged, completely discharge it by leaving the power ON
overnight. Then, fully charge the battery pack again. If the battery
pack still does not retain a charge (or only very little charge), a new
battery pack must be purchased. (p. 43)
Prior to using the transceiver for the first time, the battery pack must
be fully charged for optimum life and operation.
• Recommended temperature range for charging:
+10°C to +40°C (+50˚F to +104˚F) (rapid charge: with BC-191)
0°C to +45°C (+32˚F to +113˚F) (regular charge: with BC-192)
• Use the supplied charger or optional charger (BC-191 for rapid
charging, BC-192 for regular charging) only.
NEVER use other
manufacturers’ chargers.
The battery pack contains a rechargable battery.
Charge the battery pack before first operating the transceiver, or
when the battery pack becomes exhausted.
If you want to prolong the battery life, the following points should be
observed:
• Avoid over charging. The charging time period by the BC-192
should be less than 48 hours.
• Use the battery pack until it becomes almost completely exhausted,
under normal conditions. We recommend battery charging after
transmitting becomes impossible.
