Installation Of Fnb-101Li Battery Pack - Yaesu VX-8GE Operating Manual

I
NSTALLATION OF
The FNB-101LI is a high-performance Lithium-Ion battery providing high capacity in a
very compact package. Under normal use, the FNB-101LI may be used for approxi-
mately 300 charge cycles, after which operating time may be expected to decrease. An old
battery pack, which is displaying diminished capacity should be replaced with a new one.
To install the FNB-101LI Battery Pack, carefully mate the
battery's three alignment tabs with their corresponding align-
ment slots on the transceiver bottom case, then gently press
the top side of the Battery Pack until it locks in place with a
"click".
To remove the Battery Pack, turn the transceiver off and
remove any protective cases. Press the Battery Pack Re-
lease Knobs downward to unlock the latch, then remove
the Battery Pack from the transceiver.
1) The VX-8GE battery must be correctly installed,
to maintain the waterproof integrity.
2) Always use the Vertex Standard Co., Ltd. Model
FNB-101LI or FNB-102LI Lithium-Ion Battery Pack.
3) Battery Pack shall not be exposed to excessive heat such as
sunshine, fire, or the like.
4) Risk of explosion if battery is replaced by an incorrect type.
Dispose of used batteries according to the instructions
If the battery has never been used, or its charge
is depleted, it may be charged by connecting
the PA-44B/C Battery Charger, as shown in
the illustration, to the EXT DC jack.
While the battery is being charged, the display
will indicate "CHARGING" and the "A" indica-
tor will glow red. The S-meter will deflect ac-
cording to the charging status. When charging
is finished, the display will change to indicate
"COMPLETE" and the "A" indicator will glow
green.
1) Turn the radio off while charging the battery.
2) Perform the battery charging where the ambient temperature range +5 °C
to +35 °C. Charge out of this range could cause damage to the battery pack.
3) Use only the Vertex Standard Co., Ltd. Model PA-44C/U Battery Charger.
