BATTERY CASE
■ Optional battery case (BP-226)
When using the optional battery case attached to the transceiver,
install 5
× AA (LR6) size alkaline batteries as illustrated at right. The
BP-226 is constructed to the IPX4 waterproof standard (IEC 60529,
2006).
q Hook your finger under the latch, and open the cover in the direc-
tion of the arrow ( q). (Fig.1)
w Install 5 × AA (LR6) size alkaline batteries. (Fig.2)
• Install the alkaline batteries only.
• Be sure to observe the correct polarity.
• Do not pin the ribbon under the batteries.
e Close the cover by fitting in the direction of the arrow ( w) first,
then check that the latch is in place (
e). (Fig.1)
• Be sure the gasket and the ribbon are seated correctly, and do not
protrude from the battery case. (Fig.3)
CAUTION:
• When installing batteries, make sure they are all the same
brand, type and capacity. Also, do not mix new and old batter-
ies together.
• Keep battery contacts clean. It’s a good idea to clean battery
terminals once a week.
• Never incinerate used battery cells since internal battery gas
may cause them to rupture.
• Never expose a detached battery case to water. If the battery
case gets wet, be sure to wipe it dry before using it.
