Warnings for battery and chargers use

Please use these cautions to avoid damaging battery packs or the transceiver:

, Before using the battery charger carefully read any related warning or caution.

, Do not short battery terminals: this may cause fire, burns or explosions.

, Never dispose batteries into fire they may explode causing fire, burns or explosions. Strictly

follow any disposal regulation of your Country.

, Use only authorized batteries and chargers. The use of non-authorized accessories may cause

burns, fire or explosions causing serious damages to the radio/battery or serious injuries to

people.

, Battery chargers are for indoor use only.

, Be certain that your power source matches the rating listed for the supplied battery charger

(AC Adapter). If you are not sure, check with your dealer or with your local power company.

, To avoid damaging the power cable of the battery charger, do not put anything on it or place it

where it will be walked on. Insert the plug in socket provided with earth connection.

, Avoid strong shocks. Do not use the charger if it received a strong shock, has fallen down or it

appears damaged; immediately contact an authorized service station.

, Never try to disassemble or service the charger by yourself. Always contact your local dealer

for assistance.

, To reduce the risk of electric shocks disconnect the plug before providing any cleaning or

maintenance. Grasp the plug (not the cable) to remove the plug from the socket. The use of

non-suitable extension can cause fire or electric shocks.

, Do not expose batteries directly to temperatures below -20°C (-4°F) or greater than 35°C (95°F)

during their use and do not charge them outside the range of +5 to +55°C.

Radio maintenance

Cleaning battery packs

Wipe the battery contacts with a clean and lint free cloth to remove dirt, grease or any other material that

may prevent a good electrical contact. If contacts are very dirty you can also wipe them using a soft pencil

rubber (not hard erasers for ink!). If you feel that battery contacts aren’t still working properly, please

contact your authorized dealer.

, Do not use liquid, alcohol or aerosol cleaners.
