The optional BP-234 battery pack is a non-rechargeable,
Lithium battery pack for operation in a survival craft. The fol-
lowing precaution must be observed.
• NEVER dispose of the BP-234 battery pack in a fire. This could
result in an explosion.
• DO NOT short-circuit the BP-234 battery pack. Metal contact
(such as paper clip, another battery, etc.) across the battery con-
tacts can result in a sustained high rate discharge, which could
damage the battery, void the warranty and create a burn or a fire
hazard.
• NEVER expose of the BP-234 battery pack to excessive heat of
60°C (+140°F) or above. This could result in electrolyte leakage,
possibly causing an explosion or fire.
• NEVER attempt to recharge the BP-234. Lithium batteries may
explode or cause a fire in such cases.
• DO NOT disassemble the BP-234 battery pack. The BP-234 bat-
tery pack contains no user serviceable parts. Internal battery gas
can cause throat irritation. Also, exposed lithium may generate
heat and ignite.
• DO NOT apply excessive pressure to the battery. This may result
in electrolyte leakage, possibly causing an explosion.
• The storage life of the BP-234 is about 5 years. Once the expira-
tion date on the battery pack passes, a new battery pack must be
purchased.
• For safety reasons, once the BP-234 is used, a spare one should
be purchased. The original battery pack can be continued to be
used for regular communications; save the spare one for emer-
gency situations.
