BATTERY CHARGING

CAUTION! Shorter battery life could occur if the battery is left fully 
charged, completely discharged, or in an excessive temperature 

environment (above +45˚C) for an extended period of time. If the 

battery must be left unused for a long time, it must be detached 
from the radio after discharging. You may use the battery until the 
remaining capacity is about half, then keep it safely in a cool dry 

place with the temperature between –20˚C to +35˚C.

 Charging caution

R

 DANGER! NEVER

 charge the battery pack in areas with ex

-

tremely high temperatures, such as near fires or stoves, inside 
a sun heated car, or in direct sunlight. In such environments, the 

safety/protection circuit in the battery will activate, causing the bat

-

tery to stop charging.
WARNING!  NEVER  charge  or  leave  the  battery  in  the  battery 
charger beyond the specified time for charging. If the battery is not 
completely charged by the specified time, stop charging and re-
move the battery from the battery charger. Continuing to charge the 
battery beyond the specified time limit may cause a fire, overheat-
ing, or the battery may rupture.
WARNING! NEVER insert the transceiver (battery attached to the 

transceiver) into the charger if it is wet or soiled. This could corrode 

the battery charger terminals or damage the charger. The charger 

is not waterproof.

CAUTION! NEVER charge the battery outside of the specified tem-

perature range: 0˚C to +45˚C. Icom recommends charging the bat

-

tery at +20˚C. The battery may heat up or rupture if charged out of 

the specified temperature range. Additionally, battery performance 
or battery life may be reduced.
