8 BATTERY CHARGING WARNING! Immediately stop using the battery if it emits an abnormal odor, heats up, or is discolored or deformed. If any of these conditions occur, contact your Icom dealer or distributor. WARNING! Immediately wash, using clean water, any part of the body that comes into contact with fluid from inside the battery. WARNING! NEVER put the battery in a microwave oven, high-pressure container, or in an induction heating cooker. This could cause overheating, a fire, or cause the battery to rupture. CAUTION! Always use the battery within the specific temperature range for the transceiver (-20˚C to +60˚C; -4˚F to +140˚F) and the battery itself (-20˚C to +60˚C; -4˚F to +140˚F). Using the battery out of its specific temperature range will reduce the battery's performance and battery life. CAUTION! Shorter battery life could occur if the battery is left fully charged, completely discharged, or in an excessive temperature environment (above +50˚C; +122˚F) for an extended period of time. If the battery must be left unused for a long time, it must be detached from the radio after discharging. You may use the battery until the remaining capacity is about half, then keep it safely in a cool dry place with the temperature range as below; -20˚C to +50˚C (-4˚F to +122˚F) (within a month) -20˚C to +35˚C (-4˚F to +95˚F) (within three months) -20˚C to +20˚C (-4˚F to +68˚F) (within a year) 22 D Charging caution R 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 environments, the safety/protection circuit in the battery will activate, causing the battery to stop charging. WARNING! DO NOT charge or leave the battery in the battery charger beyond the specific time for charging. If the battery is not completely charged by the specific time, stop charging and remove the battery from the battery charger. Continuing to charge the battery beyond the specific time limit may cause a fire, overheating, or the battery may rupture. 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 specific temperature range: ±0˚C to +40˚C (+32˚F to +104˚F). Icom recommends charging the battery at +20˚C (+68˚F). The battery may heat up or rupture if charged out of the specific temperature range. Additionally, battery performance or battery life may be reduced.
