I Battery charging
Prior to using the transceiver for the first time, the battery
pack must be fully charged for optimum life and operation.
CAUTION: To avoid damage to the transceiver, turn the
power OFF while charging.
• Recommended temperature range for charging:
+10°C to +40°C
• Use the specified chargers (BC-158, BC-119N and
BC-121N). NEVER use another manufacture's charger.
• Use the supplied AC adapter for the BC-158. NEVER use
another manufacture's adapters.
Turn the transceiver OFF when charging an attached bat-
tery pack. Otherwise, the battery pack may not become full-
charging or may not charge properly.
BATTERY CHARGING
I Battery cautions
CAUTION! NEVER
(with the battery pack attached) with wet or soiled into the
charger. This may result in corrosion of the charger terminals
or damage to the charger. 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 battery pack in water. If the battery pack
becomes wet, be sure to wipe it dry immediately (particularly
the battery terminals BEFORE attaching it to the transceiver).
NEVER
short terminals of the battery pack. Also, current
may flow into nearby metal objects, such as a necklace, etc.
Those may cause burn, electric shock or fire. Therefore, be
careful when carrying in a pocket, backpack or handbag, and
when placing the radio near metal objects.
If your battery pack seems to have no capacity even after
being charged, completely discharge it by leaving the power
ON overnight. Then, fully charge the battery pack again. If the
battery still do not retain a charge (or very little), new battery
pack must be replaced.
