WARNING! NEVER
put the battery in a microwave oven,
high-pressure container, or in an induction heating cooker.
This could cause a fire, overheating, or cause the battery to
rupture.
CAUTION!
Always use the battery within the specified tem-
perature range for the transceiver
(–10˚C to +60˚C; +14˚F to
+140˚F)
and the battery itself
(–20˚C to +60˚C; –4˚F to +140˚F)
.
Using the battery out of its specified temperature range will
reduce the battery’s performance and battery life. Please
note that the specified temperature range of the battery may
exceed that of the transceiver. In such cases, the trans-
ceiver may not work properly because it is out of its operat-
ing temperature range.
CAUTION!
Shorter battery life could occur if the battery is
left fully charged, completely discharged, or in an excessive
temperature environment
(above +45˚C; +113˚F)
for an ex-
tended period of time. If the battery must be left unused for a
long time, it must be detached from the radio after discharg-
ing. You may use the battery until the remaining capacity
is about half, then keep it safely in a cool dry place with the
temperature between –20˚C to +50˚C
(−4˚F to +122˚F)
for a
month storing, between –20˚C to +35˚C
(–4˚F to +95˚F)
for
three months storing and between –20˚C to +20˚C
(−4˚F to
+68˚F)
for a year storing.

DANGER! NEVER
charge the battery pack in areas with
extremely high temperatures, such as near fires or stoves,
inside a sun heated car, or in direct sunlight. In such environ-
ments, the safety/protection circuit in the battery will activate,
causing the battery to stop charging.
WARNING! NEVER
charge or leave the battery in the bat-
tery charger beyond the specified time for charging. If the
battery is not completely charged by the specified time, stop
charging and remove the battery from the battery charger.
Continuing to charge the battery beyond the specified time
limit may cause a fire, overheating, or the battery may rup-
ture.
WARNING! NEVER
insert the transceiver (battery attached
to 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.
CAUTION! DO NOT
charge the battery outside of the specified
temperature range: BC-179
(0˚C to +40˚C; +32˚F to +104˚F)
.
Icom
recommends charging the battery at +20˚C
(+68˚F)
. The bat-
tery may heat up or rupture if charged out of the specified
temperature range. Additionally, battery performance or bat-
tery life may be reduced.
