2-4 Battery Level Indicator
•Battery consumption level may change depending on the surrounding temperature or the frequency of use.
•Even if the battery icon appears to indicate the necessity of charging the battery, it can be used further if the usage is only for low output transmission or reception.
•The default setting of the battery pack type is "bAt-1" which is for AA type cells. When using Lithium Ion battery pack, select the battery type setting to "bAt-2" in the Setting mode (page 26, ITEM No.16) to correctly indicate the battery level icon.
Reference : Due to the amplification circuitry used in this unit to
obtain high output with only 2 batteries, it may happen that the unit cannot be turned on when the battery voltage is getting low (while the low-battery icon is on the display), but not completely discharged yet. This is not a defect but we recommend that:
•When the low-battery icon appears, recharge or replace the batteries.
•When the low-battery icon appears, try not to turn off the radio until fully use up the battery power.
When they are completely discharged the display will turn off.
*When the battery level
becomes low, the battery icon appears. Charge or replace the battery.
