Caution
R
DANGER! NEVER
short the terminals of the battery pack.
Also, current may flow into nearby metal objects, such as a neck-
lace, etc. Therefore, be careful when carrying with, or placing near
metal objects, carrying in handbags, etc.
R
DANGER! NEVER
incinerate used battery packs. Internal
battery gas may cause an explosion.
R
DANGER! NEVER
insert battery pack/transceiver (with the
battery pack attached) with wet or soiled into the charger. This may
result in corrosion of the charger terminals or damage to the char-
ger. The charger is not waterproof and water can easily get into it.
R
DANGER! NEVER
immerse the battery pack in water. If the
battery pack becomes wet, be sure to wipe it dry immediately (par
-
ticularly the battery terminals) BEFORE attaching it to the trans
-
ceiver. Otherwise, the terminals will become corroded, or cause
connection failure, etc.
DO NOT
leave the battery pack in a fully charged, or completely
discharged condition for long time. It causes shorter battery life. In
case of leaving the battery pack unused for a long time, it must be
kept safely after discharge, or use the battery until the battery indi-
cator appears, then remove it from the transceiver.
If your battery pack seems to have no capacity even after being
charged, fully charge the battery pack again. If the battery pack still
does not retain a charge (or very little), a new battery pack must be
purchased.
