• Do not carry the battery pack (or battery case) with metal objects, as they may short
the battery terminals.
• When operating the transceiver in areas where the air is dry, it is easy to build up
an electric charge (static electricity). When using a earphone accessory in such
conditions, it is possible for the transceiver to send an electric shock through the
earphone and to your ear. We recommend you use only a speaker/microphone in
these conditions, to avoid electric shocks.
• When attaching a commercial strap to the transceiver, ensure that the strap is
durable. In addition, do not swing the transceiver around by the strap; you may
inadvertently strike and injure another person with the transceiver.
Information concerning the battery pack:
The battery pack includes fl ammable objects such as organic solvent.
Mishandling may cause the battery to rupture producing fl ames or extreme heat,
deteriorate, or cause other forms of damage to the battery. Please observe the
following prohibitive matters.
• Do not disassemble or reconstruct battery!
The battery pack has a safety function and protection circuit to avoid danger. If they suffer
serious damage, the battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into fl ame.
• Do not short-circuit the battery!
Do not join the + and – terminals using any form of metal (such as a paper clip or
wire). Do not carry or store the battery pack in containers holding metal objects (such
as wires, chain-necklace or hairpins). If the battery pack is short-circuited, excessive
current will fl ow and the battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into
fl ame. It will also cause metal objects to heat up.
• Do not incinerate or apply heat to the battery!
If the insulator is melted, the gas release vent or safety function is damaged, or the
electrolyte is ignited, the battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into fl ame.
• Do not leave the battery near fi re, stoves, or other heat generators (areas
reaching over 80°C/ 176°F)!
If the polymer separator is melted due to high temperature, an internal short-circuit
may occur in the individual cells and the battery may generate heat or smoke,
rupture, or burst into fl ame.
• Avoid immersing the battery in water or getting it wet by other means!
If the battery becomes wet, wipe it off with a dry towel before use. If the battery's
protection circuit is damaged, the battery may charge at extreme current (or voltage)
and an abnormal chemical reaction may occur. The battery may generate heat or
smoke, rupture, or burst into fl ame.
• Do not charge the battery near fi re or under direct sunlight!
If the battery's protection circuit is damaged, the battery may charge at extreme
current (or voltage) and an abnormal chemical reaction may occur. The battery may
generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into fl ame.
• Use only the specifi ed charger and observe charging requirements!
If the battery is charged in unspecifi ed conditions (under high temperature over the
regulated value, excessive high voltage or current over regulated value, or with a
remodeled charger), it may overcharge or an abnormal chemical reaction may occur.
The battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into fl ame.
