2 PREPARATION
2.1 Battery Info
Battery Precautions
CAUTION
1) Do not recharge the battery pack if it is already fully charged. Doing
so may cause the life of the battery pack to shorten or the battery
pack may be damaged.
2) After recharging the battery pack, disconnect it from the charger. If
the charger power is reset (turned ON after being turned OFF),
recharging will start again and the battery pack will become over-
charged.
3) Do not use the transceiver while charging the battery pack. We re-
commend you switch the transceiver power OFF while in charging.
4) Do not short the battery terminals or dispose of the battery by fire.
5) Never attempt to remove the casing from the battery pack.
DANGER!
1) Do not disassemble or reconstruct battery!
The battery pack has a safety function and protection circuit to avoid
danger. If they suffer serious damage, the battery may generate
heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into flame.
2) Do not short-circuit the battery!
Do not join the + and - terminals using any form of metal (such as a
paperclip or wire). Do not carry or store the battery pack in contain-
ers holding metal objects (such as wires, chain-necklace or hair-
pins). If the battery pack is short-circuited, excessive current will
flow and the battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst
into flame. It will also cause metal object to heat up.
3) Do not incinerate or apply heat the battery!
If the insulator is melted, the gas release vent or safety function is
damaged, or the electrolyte is ignited, the battery may generate heat
or smoke, rupture, or burst into flame.
4) Do not use or leave the battery near fires, stoves, or other heat gene
rators!
If the polymer separator is melted due to high temperature, an inter-
nal short-circuit may occur in the individual cells and the battery may
generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into flame.
5) Do not immerse the battery in water or get it wet by other means!
If the battery's protection circuit is damaged, the battery may charge
at extreme current (or voltage) and an abnormal chemical reaction
may occur. The battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst
into flame.
6) Do not charge the battery near fires or under direct sunlight!
If the battery's protection circuit is damaged, the battery may charge
at extreme current (or voltage) and an abnormal chemical reaction
may occur. The battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst
into flame.
7) Use only the specified charger and observe charging requirements!
If the battery is charged in unspecified conditions (under high temper-
ature over the regulated value, excessive high voltage or current over
regulated value, or with a remodeled charger), it may overcharge or
an abnormal chemical reaction may occur. The battery may generate
heat or smoke, or burst into flame.
8) Do not pierce the battery with any object, strike with an instrument, or
step on it!
This may break or deform the battery, causing a shortcircuited. The
battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into flame.
9) Do not jar or throw the battery!
An impact may cause the battery to leak, generate heat or smoke,
rupture, and/or burst into flame. If the battery's protection circuit is
damaged, the battery may charge at an abnormal current (or voltage),
and an abnormal chemical reaction may occur. The battery may gen-
erate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into flame.
10) Do not use the battery pack if it is damaged in any way!
The battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into flame.
11) Do not solder directly onto the battery!
If the insulator is melted or the gas release vent or safety function is
damaged, the battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst
into flame.
12) Do not reverse the battery polarity (and terminals)!
When charging a reversed battery, an abnormal chemical reaction
may occur. In some cases, an unexpected large amount of current
may flow upon discharging. The battery may generate heat or smoke,
rupture, or burst into flame.
13) Do not reverse-charge or reverse-connect the battery!
The battery pack has positive and negative poles. If the battery pack
does not smoothly connect with a charger or operating equipment, do
not force it; check the polarity of the battery. If the battery pack is
