BATTERY CHARGING
■ Caution
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.
•R DANGER! Use and charge only specified Icom battery
packs with Icom radios or Icom charger. Only Icom battery
packs are tested and approved for use and charge with
Icom radios or Icom charger. Using third-party or coun-
terfeit battery packs or charger may cause smoke, fire, or
cause the battery to burst.
D Battery caution
•R DANGER! DO NOT hammer or otherwise impact the
battery. Do not use the battery if it has been severely im-
pacted 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 packs 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
temperatures may also degrade battery performance or
shorten battery life.
•R DANGER! DO NOT expose the battery to rain, snow,
seawater, or any other liquids. Never charge or use a wet
battery. If the battery gets wet, be sure to wipe it dry before
using. The battery is not waterproof.
•R DANGER! NEVER incinerate used battery packs since
internal battery gas may cause them to rupture, or may
cause an explosion.
•R DANGER! NEVER solder the battery terminals or
NEVERmodifythebatterypack.Thismaycauseheatgen-
eration, and the battery may rupture, 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.
