BATTERY PACK PRECAUTIONS
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.
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
overcharged.
Do not use the transceiver while charging the battery pack. We
recommend you switch the transceiver power OFF while charging
is taking place.
Do not short the battery terminals or dispose of the battery by
fire.
Never attempt to remove the casing from the battery pack.
Information concerning the (optional) Li-ion battery pack:
The battery pack includes flammable objects such as organic solvent.
Mishandling may cause the battery to rupture producing flames or
extreme heat, deteriorate, or cause other forms of damage to the
battery. Please observe the following prohibitive matters.
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.
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
containers holding metal objects (such as wires, chain-neckless or
hairpins). 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 objects to heat up.
