BATTERY CHARGING
■
Battery cautions
NEVER
incinerate used Ni-Cd batteries. Internal battery gas
may cause an explosion.
NEVER
immerse batteries in water. If the battery case be-
comes wet, be sure to wipe it dry BEFORE attaching it to the
transceiver.
NEVER
short terminals of the battery case. Also, current may
flow into nearby metal objects so be careful when placing bat-
tery cases in handbags, etc.
If your Ni-Cd batteries seem to have no capacity even after
being charged, completely discharge them by leaving the
power ON overnight. Then, fully charge the Ni-Cd batteries
again. If the Ni-Cd batteries still do not retain a charge (or
very little), new Ni-Cd batteries must be purchased.
