INSTRUCTIONS
DESKTOP CHARGER
BC-119N
PRECAUTIONS
RDANGER! NEVER charge other than the
specified Icom Ni-MH or Li-ion batteries. Never
charge or use an alkaline, dry cell, third-party,
or counterfeit battery packs or charger adapter.
Otherwise, a fire and/or explosion may occur.
RDANGER! NEVER charge the battery packs
in areas with extremely high temperatures, such
as near fires or stoves, inside a sun heated vehi-
cle, or in direct sunlight. In such environments,
the safety/protection circuit in the battery will
activate, causing the battery to stop charging.
RDANGER! NEVER place the battery packs
near a fire. Fire or heat may cause them to
rupture or explode. Dispose of an used battery
packing accordance with local regulations.
RWARNING! NEVER insert the battery packs
(with/without the transceiver) into the charger if
it is wet or soiled. This could corrode the battery
charger terminals or damage the charger. The
charger is not waterproof.
RWARNING! NEVER charge the battery packs
during a lightning storm. It may result in an
electric shock, cause a fire or damage the bat-
tery pack or transceiver. Always disconnect the
power adapter before a storm.
CAUTION: DO NOT use the charger with the
power adapter when it is covered by objects that
impede heat dispersal.
CAUTION: DO NOT let metal, wire, and so on,
touch any internal part of the charger.
ABOUT CE
Versions of the BC-119N which have
the "CE" symbol on the product
comply with the essential require-
ments of the 2014/30/EU directive
for Electromagnetic Compatibility and
the 2001/95/EC directive for General
Product Safety.
Thank you for choosing the BC-119N
. The BC-119N charges
desktop charger
a Ni-MH battery pack in approximately
1 to 2 hours or a Li-ion battery pack in
approximately 2 to 3 hours.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS carefully
and completely before using this product.
CAUTION: DO NOT charge the battery outside
of the specified temperature range: 10°C ~ 40°C
(50°F ~ 104°F). Icom recommends charging the
battery at 20°C (68°F). The battery may heat up
or rupture if charged out of the specified temper-
ature range. Additionally, battery performance or
battery life may be reduced.
USE INDOORS ONLY! NEVER expose the
charger to rain, snow or any liquids.
DO NOT leave the Li-ion 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 level becomes
middle level.
KEEP the charger away from TV sets or radios
to prevent interference.
MAKE SURE battery and charger contacts are
always clean. Otherwise, battery packs may not
be charged properly.
NOTE: If your battery pack seems to have no
capacity even after being fully charged, charge
it again. If it still does not retain a charge (or
very little), purchase a new battery pack.
DISPOSAL
The crossed-out wheeled-bin
symbol on your product, literature,
or packaging reminds you that in
the European Union, all electrical
