Attaching labels to the radio or battery
Do not cover the battery vent hole or the vent hole on the radio chassis. If the vent
on the battery is obstructed, the battery may explode, causing personal injury
and/or damage to property. If the vent on the radio is obstructed, audio quality
and/or key function may deteriorate and radio seals may be damaged.
Figure 2.1
Radio chassis and battery vent holes
Notice
Tait recommends that additional labels are not applied to the surfaces between the radio
chassis and the battery. The fit between these surfaces is intentionally firm and any added thickness
will damage the points of attachment between radio and battery.
If a customer requires a customized label, use only a thin gummed paper label with a maximum thickness of 1/32 inch
(0.1mm). Attach the customized label in the spare label recess in the chassis (if available), or over an existing label.
The customized label may be applied to the bottom 25% of the radio chassis label and/or to the top 25% of the battery
label.
Do not obstruct the battery vent hole (see Warning above). Do not allow the paper label to extend beyond the
recessed label area or to conceal relevant product information.
Attaching a label to the front panel
If a customer requires an additional label, attach the label in the spare label recess in the bottom surface of the radio
front panel. In this position, the label is still visible while the battery is attached to the radio.
