CAUTION:
• When installing the batteries, make sure they are all the
same brand, type and capacity. Also, do not mix new and
old batteries together.
• Keep battery terminals clean. It’s a good idea to occa-
sionally clean them.
• Never incinerate used battery cells since internal battery
gas may cause them to rupture.
• Never expose a detached battery case to water. If the bat-
tery case gets wet, be sure to wipe it dry before using it.
NOTE:
When the optional battery case is attached, the
battery type must be set to “DRY BATT” when turning ON
the transceiver. (p. 8)
