ATTERIES
◆ Do not install batteries in a hazardous environment where sparks
could cause an explosion.
◆ Never discard batteries in fire; extremely high temperatures can
cause batteries to explode.
◆ Do not short circuit the battery case terminals.
◆ Do not use rechargeable batteries.
Note:
◆ If you do not plan to use the transceiver for a long period, remove
the batteries from the battery case.
◆ This battery case has been designed for transmitting at a power
of approximately 1 W (the low power setting on your transceiver).
If you want to transmit a stronger signal (using the high power
setting on your transceiver), use an optional rechargeable battery
pack.
