BATTERY CHARGING

■ Caution

D Battery caution
Misuse of Lithium-ion batteries may result in the following
hazards: smoke, fire, or the battery may rupture. Misuse
can also cause damage to the battery or degradation of
battery performance.
R DANGER! DO NOT hammer or otherwise impact the
battery pack. Do not use the battery pack if it has been
severely impacted or dropped, or if it has been subjected
to heavy pressure. The damage may not be visible on the
outside of the case. Even if the surface of the battery pack
does not show cracks or any other damage, the cells inside
may rupture or catch fire.
R DANGER! NEVER use or leave battery packs in areas
with temperatures above 60˚C. High temperature buildup in
the battery, such as could occur near fires or stoves, inside
a sun heated car, or in direct sunlight may cause the battery
to rupture or catch fire. Excessive temperatures may also
degrade battery performance or shorten battery life.
R DANGER! DO NOT expose the battery pack to rain,
snow, seawater, or any other liquids. Never charge or use
a wet battery pack. If the battery pack gets wet, be sure to
wipe it dry before using.
R DANGER! KEEp the battery pack away from fire. Fire or
heat may cause them to rupture or explode. Dispose of an
used battery pack in accordance with local regulations.

R DANGER! NEVER solder the battery pack terminals, or
modify the battery pack. This may generate heat in the battery,
and the battery pack may burst, emit smoke or catch fire.
R DANGER! Use the battery pack only with the transceiver
for which it is specified. Never use a battery pack with any
other equipment, or for any purpose that is not specified in
this instruction manual.
R DANGER! If fluid from inside the battery pack gets in
your eyes, blindness can result. Rinse your eyes with clean
water, without rubbing them, and see a doctor immediately.
R WARNING! Immediately stop using the battery pack
if it emits an abnormal odor, heats up, or is discolored or
deformed. If any of these conditions occur, contact your
Icom dealer or distributor.
R WARNING! Immediately wash, using clean water, any
part of the body that comes into contact with fluid from
inside the battery pack.
R WARNING! NEVER put the battery pack in a microwave
oven, high-pressure container, or in an induction heating
cooker. This could cause a fire, overheating, or cause the
battery to rupture.
