Important Safety Information
Operational Cautions
Batteries
All batteries can cause property damage and/or bodily
injury such as burns if a conductive material such as
jewelry, keys, or beaded chains touch exposed terminals.
The conductive material may complete an electrical
circuit (short circuit) and become quite hot. Exercise care
in handling any charged battery, particularly when
placing it inside a pocket, purse, or other container with
metal objects.
Portable Radio Care
•
Avoid physical abuse of your radio such as carrying it
by the antenna or remote microphone.
•
Wipe the battery contacts with a lint-free cloth to
remove dirt, grease, or other material which may
prevent good electrical connections.
•
When not in use, keep the accessory jack covered
with the protective cap.
•
Clean the radio exterior using a cloth moistened with
water.
AUTION:
Use of chemicals such as detergents, alcohol,
aerosol spray, and/or petroleum products may be
harmful and damage the housing and cover.
Batteries and Chargers
MPORTANT: The battery is shipped from the factory
uncharged and must be charged before use.
Charging Batteries
To ensure peak performance, batteries should be fully
charged before use and periodically thereafter. The
battery lasts approximately 40 hours when fully charged.
