■ Caution (for the optional BP-265 Li-Ion battery pack)
•R DANGER! Use and charge only specified Icom battery
packs with Icom radios and Icom chargers. Only Icom bat-
tery packs are tested and approved for use with Icom radios
or charged with Icom chargers. Using third-party or coun-
terfeit battery packs may cause smoke, fire, or cause the
battery to burst.
D Battery caution
•R DANGER! DO NOT hammer or otherwise impact the bat-
tery. Do not use the battery if it has been severely impacted
or dropped, or if the battery has been subjected to heavy
pressure. Battery 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 fire.
•R DANGER! NEVER use or leave battery pack in areas
with temperatures above +60˚C (+140˚F). High tempera-
ture 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 tem-
peratures may also degrade battery performance or shorten
battery life.
•R DANGER! DO NOT expose the battery to rain, snow,
seawater, or any other liquids. Do not charge or use a wet
battery. If the battery gets wet, be sure to wipe it dry before
using.
•R DANGER! NEVER incinerate a used battery pack, since
internal battery gas may cause it to rupture, or may cause
an explosion.
•R DANGER! NEVER solder the battery terminals, or
NEVER modify the battery pack. This may cause heat gen-
eration, and the battery may burst, emit smoke or catch
fire.
•R DANGER! Use the battery only with the transceiver for
which it is specified. Never use a battery with any other
equipment, or for any purpose that is not specified in this
instruction manual.
•R DANGER! If fluid from inside the battery 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 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 in-
side the battery.
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.
