•
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.
•
Do not swing the transceiver around while holding onto the strap. Doing so may
cause injury to other persons and damage to the transceiver.
Information concerning the battery pack:
The battery pack includes flammable objects such as organic solvent.
Mishandling may cause the battery to rupture producing flames 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 flame.
•
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 flow and the battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into
flame. 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
flame.
•
Do not leave the battery near fire, 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 flame.
•
Do not immerse the battery in water or get it wet by other means!
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 flame.
•
Do not charge the battery near fire 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 flame.
•
Use only the specified charger and observe charging requirements!
If the battery is charged in unspecified 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 flame.
