the transceiver when changing a fuse.

The IC-756 has 2 types of fuses installed for trans-
ceiver protection.

The transceiver has a lithium backup battery on the
inside of the front panel for clock and timer functions.
The usual life of the backup battery is approximately 5
years.

When the backup battery is exhausted, the trans-
ceiver transmits and receives normally but cannot re-
tain the current time.
