BASIC MANUAL
BE CAREFUL! The transceiver meets
IP67* requirements for dust tight and
waterproof protection. However, once the
transceiver has been dropped, waterproof
protection cannot be guaranteed because
of possible damage to the transceiver’s
case or waterproof seal.
*
Only when the battery pack, exible antenna,
and jack cover are attached.
Even when the transceiver power is OFF,
a slight current still ows in the circuits.
Remove the battery pack from the
transceiver when not using it for a long
time. Otherwise, the installed battery pack
will become exhausted and will need to be
recharged or replaced.
■ Battery cautions
D Battery caution
Misuse of Li-ion batteries may result in
the following hazards: smoke, re, or
the battery may rupture. Misuse can
also cause damage to the battery or
degradation of batteryʼs performance.
R DANGER! NEVER incinerate used
battery packs. Internal battery gas may
cause an explosion.
R DANGER! NEVER strike or otherwise
impact the battery pack. Do not use
the battery pack if it has been severely
impacted or dropped, or if the pack has
been subjected to heavy pressure. Battery
pack damage may not be visible on the
outside of the case. Even if the surface of
the battery does not show cracks or any
other damage, the cells inside the battery
may rupture or catch re.
R DANGER! NEVER leave the battery
pack in places with temperatures above
60˚C (140˚F). A High-temperature buildup in
the battery cells, such as could occur near
res or stoves, inside a sun-heated vehicle,
or in direct sunlight for long periods of time,
may cause the battery cells to rupture or
catch re. Excessive temperatures may also
degrade the pack’s performance or shorten
the battery cell’s life.
R DANGER! NEVER place battery packs
near a re. Fire or heat may cause them to
rupture or explode. Dispose of used battery
packs in accordance with local regulations.
R DANGER! NEVER solder the battery
terminals, or NEVER modify the battery pack.
This may cause heat generation, and the
battery may burst, emit smoke or catch re.
R DANGER! NEVER let uid from inside
the battery get in your eyes. This can
cause blindness. Rinse your eyes with
clean water, without rubbing them, and
immediately go to a doctor.
R WARNING! NEVER use deteriorated
battery packs. They could cause a re.
R WARNING! NEVER let uid from inside
the battery cells come in contact with your
body. If it does, immediately wash with
clean water.
R WARNING! NEVER put the battery
pack in a microwave oven, high-pressure
container, or in an induction heating cooker.
This could cause a re, overheating, or
cause the battery cells to rupture.
CAUTION: DO NOT expose the battery
pack to rain, snow, saltwater, or any other
liquids. Do not charge or use a wet pack.
If the pack gets wet, be sure to wipe it dry
cloth before using.
CAUTION: DO NOT use the battery 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.
