The charger is not waterproof and water can easily get into it.
NEVER
incinerate used battery packs. Internal battery gas may
cause an explosion.
NEVER
immerse the battery pack in water. If the battery pack be-
comes wet, be sure to wipe it dry immediately (particularly the bat-
tery terminals) BEFORE attaching it to the transceiver. Otherwise,
the terminals will become corroded, or cause connection failure,
etc.
NEVER
short the terminals of the battery pack. Also, current may
flow into nearby metal objects, such as a necklace, etc. Therefore,
be careful when carrying with, or placing near metal objects, carry-
ing in handbags, etc.
AVOID
leaving the battery pack in a fully charged, or completely
discharged condition for long time. It causes shorter battery life. In
case of leaving the battery pack unused for a long time, it must be
kept safely after discharge, or use the battery until the battery indi-
cator appears, then remove it from the transceiver.
If your battery pack seems to have no capacity even after being
charged, fully charge the battery pack again. If the battery pack still
does not retain a charge (or very little), a new battery pack must be
purchased.
Charge the specified Icom batteries only.
