BATTERY CHARGING
R DANGER! NEVER
incinerate used battery packs since internal
battery gas may cause them to rupture, or may cause an explosion.
R DANGER! NEVER solder the battery terminals or NEVER mod-
ify the battery pack. This may cause heat generation, and the bat-
tery may rupture, emit smoke or catch fire.
R DANGER!
Use the battery only with the transceiver for which it
is specified. Never use a battery with any other equipment, or for
any purpose that is not specified in this instruction manual.
R DANGER! If fluid from inside the battery gets in your eyes, blind-
ness can result. Rinse your eyes with clean water, without rubbing
them, and see a doctor immediately.
WARNING!
Immediately stop using the battery if it emits an ab-
normal odor, heats up, or is discolored or deformed. If any of these
conditions occur, contact your Icom dealer or distributor.
WARNING! Immediately wash, using clean water, any part of the
body that comes into contact with fluid from inside the battery.
WARNING! NEVER put the battery in a microwave oven, high-
pressure container, or in an induction heating cooker. This could
cause a fire, overheating, or cause the battery to rupture.
CAUTION!
Always use the battery within the specified temperature
range for the transceiver (–30˚C to +60˚C; –22˚F to +140˚F) and
the battery itself (–20˚C to +60˚C; –4˚F to +140˚F). Using the bat
-
tery out of its specified temperature range will reduce the battery’s
performance and battery life.
