Battery cautions
Misuse of Li-ion batteries may result in
the following hazards: smoke, fire, or
the battery may rupture. Misuse can
also cause damage to the battery or
degradation of batteryʼs performance.
R
DANGER! NEVER
incinerate used
battery packs. Internal battery gas may
cause an explosion.
R
DANGER! NEVER
strike or otherwise
impact the battery pack. Do not use
the battery pack if it has been severely
impacted or dropped, or if the pack has
been subjected to heavy pressure. Battery
pack damage may not be visible on the
outside of the case. Even if the surface of
the battery does not show cracks or any
other damage, the cells inside the battery
may rupture or catch fire.
R
DANGER! NEVER
leave the battery
pack in places with temperatures above
60˚C (140˚F). A High-temperature buildup in
the battery cells, such as could occur near
fires or stoves, inside a sun-heated vehicle,
or in direct sunlight for long periods of time,
may cause the battery cells to rupture or
catch fire. Excessive temperatures may also
degrade the pack’s performance or shorten
the battery cell’s life.
R
DANGER! NEVER
place battery packs
near a fire. Fire or heat may cause them to
rupture or explode. Dispose of used battery
packs in accordance with local regulations.
R
DANGER! NEVER
solder the battery
terminals, or
NEVER
modify the battery pack.
This may cause heat generation, and the
battery may burst, emit smoke or catch fire.
R
DANGER! NEVER
let fluid from inside
the battery get in your eyes. This can
cause blindness. Rinse your eyes with
clean water, without rubbing them, and
immediately go to a doctor.
R
WARNING! NEVER
use deteriorated
battery packs. They could cause a fire.
R
WARNING! NEVER
let fluid from inside
the battery cells come in contact with your
body. If it does, immediately wash with
clean water.
R
WARNING! NEVER
put the battery
pack in a microwave oven, high-pressure
container, or in an induction heating cooker.
This could cause a fire, overheating, or
cause the battery cells to rupture.
CAUTION: DO NOT
expose the battery
pack to rain, snow, saltwater, or any other
liquids. Do not charge or use a wet pack.
If the pack gets wet, be sure to wipe it dry
cloth before using.
CAUTION: DO NOT
use the battery if it
emits an abnormal odor, heats up, or is
discolored or deformed. If any of these
conditions occur, contact your Icom dealer
or distributor.
CAUTION: DO NOT
use the battery pack
out of the specified temperature range
–20˚C ~ +60˚C (–4˚F ~ +140˚F). Using the
pack out of this range will reduce the pack’s
performance and battery cell life.
CAUTION: DO NOT
leave the pack fully
charged, completely discharged, or in an
excessive temperature environment (above
50˚C, 122˚F) for an extended period of
time. Otherwise, a shorter battery pack
life could occur. If the battery pack must
be left unused for a long time, it must
be detached from the transceiver after
discharging. You may use the pack until the
remaining capacity is about half, then keep
it safely in a cool, dry place in the following
temperature range:
–20˚C (–4˚F) ~ +50˚C (+122˚F)
(within a month).
–20˚C (–4˚F) ~ +35˚C (+95˚F)*
(within three months).
–20˚C (–4˚F) ~ +20˚C (+68˚F)
(within a year).
* BP-307: –20˚C (–4˚F) ~ +40˚C (+104˚F)
