Connecting To An External Power Supply Using A Power Cable - Yaesu FT1DR Operating Manual

Precaution
z The E-DC-5B is compatible with a 12 VDC cigarette lighter socket.
Do not connect the E-DC-5B to the 24 VDC cigarette lighter socket.
z Use the FT1DR at the minimum required transmission power level to prevent overheating.
z Do not perform continuous transmission for a prolonged period. The FT1DR can overheat, resulting
in a failure or burn.
z If you operate the FT1DR for 7 hours or longer, it is recommended that you remove the battery pack
and install the optional battery case (FBA-39).
z Recharging the fully-charged battery pack repeatedly can shorten its life. Be extremely careful not to
do so when you operate the FT1DR using an external power supply.
z While charging the battery pack, protect the FT1DR from splash of water.
z Charge the battery pack in a place where the ambient temperature is +5ÛC to +35ÛC.
z If the terminal or electrode of the battery case is dirty, the FT1DR can malfunction due to poor
contact, resulting in overheating or rupture. If the terminal or electrode gets dirty, clean it using a dry
cloth or cotton swab.
Hints
• The external power supply requires about 5 hours to charge the battery pack (about 8 hours
to charge the optional battery pack FNB-102LI). If the battery pack is charged with the FT1DR
powered, the charging time increases slightly.
• When the battery pack has been charged fully, charging stops automatically.
• The external power supply can be used with the battery case installed.
• If you connect the FT1DR to the extern al power supply with it turned off, "CONNECTED TO
EXTERNAL POWER" is displayed on the LCD, and about 20 seconds later "BATTERY NOT
INSTALLED" is displayed.
