w Lock the latch.
D Operating periods
The operating periods with BP-217 are:
50 MHz Approx. 6 hr.
144 MHz Approx. 5 hr.
440 MHz Approx. 5 hr.
at high power, Tx : Rx : Standby = 1:1:8
■ Battery cautions
NEVER incinerate used battery packs. Internal battery gas
may cause an explosion.
NEVER immerse the battery pack in water. If the battery pack
becomes wet, be sure to wipe it dry BEFORE attaching it to
the transceiver.
NEVER short terminals of the battery pack. Also, current may
flow into nearby metal objects so be careful when placing bat-
tery packs in handbags, etc.
If your battery pack seems to have no capacity even after
being charged, completely discharge it by leaving the power
ON overnight. Then, fully charge the battery pack again. If the
battery pack still does not retain a charge (or very little), a
new battery pack must be purchased.
Use Icom battery packs, chargers and cables only. The use of
non-Icom products may impair transceiver performance and
invalidate the warranty.
Even when the transceiver power is OFF, a slight current still
flows in the circuits. Remove the battery pack or case from
the transceiver when not using it for a long time. Otherwise,
the battery pack or installed batteries will become exhausted.
