■ Caution
•R DANGER! NEVER short the terminals (or charging termi-
nals) of the battery pack. Also, current may flow into nearby
metal objects such as a key, so be careful when placing
battery packs (or the transceiver) in bags, etc.
Simply carrying with or placing near metal objects such as
a necklace, etc. may cause shorting. This may damage not
only the battery pack, but also the transceiver.
•R DANGER! Use and charge only specified Icom battery
packs with Icom radios or Icom chargers. Only Icom battery
packs are tested and approved for use with Icom radios or
charged with Icom chargers. Using third-party or counterfeit
battery packs may cause smoke, fire, or cause the battery
to burst.

cracks or any other damage, the cells inside the battery may
rupture or catch fire.
