Lithium Battery Safety Instructions

Improper replacement of the lithium battery may result in an explosion.
Replace only with a lithium battery of the same type or equivalent (the
lithium battery used in this device is a BL-5C rechargeable lithium
battery).
Do not expose the battery to heat sources (e.g. sunlight, fire), low
temperatures, humidity, or high pressure.
Do not short-circuit or disassemble the battery. If the battery is seriously
inflated, please do not continue to use it. Dispose of the battery properly
and prevent children from playing with electric currents.
If not using for an extended period of time, remove the battery and store
it in a safe manner. Please use non-conductive material to wrap the
battery in order to avoid direct contact with metal. You can avoid
performance loss by keeping the battery in a cool dry place.
Please consciously abide by aviation regulations; lithium batteries are
strictly prohibited from placing into checked luggage.

Radio Maintenance

Keep it dry. Rain, humidity and other types of liquids or moisture can
contain minerals that may cause corrosion to components. If the device
does accidentally get wet, remove the battery and wait for the radio to
dry completely before placing it back.
Do not place or store the device in environments above +45°C. High
temperatures can shorten the life span of certain components.
Do not place or store the device in cold environments below -5°C .
Otherwise, once the surrounding temperature rises, internal
condensation may develop and damage the circuit board and LCD
display.
Do not drop, hit, or smash the device.
Do not use harsh chemicals, cleaning solvents, or strong detergents to
clean the device. Use a clean, soft, dry cloth to clean the screen.
Do not attempt to disassemble the device to adjust internal parameters.
