CAUTION
NOTE
Personal death, serious injury or an explosion may occur.
Personal injury, fire hazard or electric
shock may occur.
Equipment damage may occur.
If disregarded, inconvenience only. No risk
of personal injury, fire or electric shock.
PRECAUTIONS
R CAUTION! NEVER hold the transceiver so that
the antenna is very close to, or touching exposed parts of
the body, especially the face or eyes, while transmitting. The
transceiver will perform best if the microphone is 5 to 10 cm
away from the lips and the transceiver is vertical.
R CAUTION! NEVER operate the transceiver with a
headset or other audio accessories at high volume levels.
R CAUTION! NEVER short the terminals of the bat-
tery pack.
R CAUTION! NEVER use non-Icom battery packs/
chargers to prevent the loss of the transceiver’s good performance and warranty.
DO NOT push [PTT] when not actually desiring to transmit.
DO NOTuse or place the transceiver in direct sunlight or
in areas with temperatures below –25°C or above +55°C.
The basic operations, transmission and reception of the
transceiver are guaranteed within the specified operating
temperature range. However, the LCD display may not operate correctly, or show an indication in the case of long hours
of operation, or after being placed in extremely cold areas.
DO NOT modify the transceiver. The transceiver warranty
does not cover any problems caused by unauthorized modification.
KEEPthe transceiver away from the heavy rain, and
Never immerse it in the water. The transceiver meets IP55*
requirements for dust-protection and water jet resistance.
However, once the transceiver has been dropped, dustprotection and water jet resistance cannot be guaranteed
due to the fact that the transceiver may be cracked, or the
waterproof seal damaged, etc.

BATTERY CHARGING
4
■ Caution
Misuse of Lithium-Ion batteries may result in the following
hazards: smoke, fire, or the battery may rupture. Misuse
can also cause damage to the battery or degradation of
battery performance.
• R DANGER! Use and charge only specified Icom battery
packs with Icom radios or Icom charger. Only Icom battery
packs are tested and approved for use and charge with
Icom radios or Icom charger. Using third-party or counterfeit
battery packs or charger may cause smoke, fire, or cause
the battery to burst.
D Battery caution
• R DANGER! DO NOT hammer or otherwise impact the bat-
tery. Do not use the battery if it has been severely impacted
or dropped, or if the battery has been subjected to heavy
pressure. Battery damage may not be visible on the outside
of the case. Even if the surface of the battery does not show
cracks or any other damage, the cells inside the battery may
rupture or catch fire.
• R DANGER! NEVER use or leave battery packs in areas
with temperatures above +60˚C. High temperature buildup in
the battery, such as could occur near fires or stoves, inside
a sun heated car, or in direct sunlight may cause the battery
to rupture or catch fire. Excessive temperatures may also
degrade battery performance or shorten battery life.
• R DANGER! DO NOT expose the battery to rain, snow,
seawater, or any other liquids. Never charge or use a wet
battery. If the battery gets wet, be sure to wipe it dry before
using. The battery is not waterproof.
•
R DANGER! NEVER incinerate used battery packs since
internal battery gas may cause them to rupture, or may
cause an explosion.
•
R DANGER! NEVER solder the battery terminals or
NEVER modify the battery pack. This may cause heat generation, and the battery may rupture, emit smoke or catch
fire.
•
R DANGER! Use the battery only with the transceiver for
which it is specified. Never use a battery with any other
equipment, or for any purpose that is not specified in this
instruction manual.
•
R DANGER! If fluid from inside the battery gets in your
eyes, blindness can result. Rinse your eyes with clean water,
without rubbing them, and see a doctor immediately.
•
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

• 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 temperature range for the transceiver (–25˚C to +55˚C) and
the battery itself (–20˚C to +60˚C). 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 transceiver may not
work properly because it is out of its operating temperature
range.
•
CAUTION! Shorter battery life could occur if the battery is
left fully charged, completely discharged, or in an excessive
temperature environment (above +50˚C) 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 (within a month)
–20˚C to +35˚C (within three months)
–20˚C to +20˚C (within a year)
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! NEVER charge or leave the battery in the battery 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 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! NEVER charge the battery outside of the specified temperature range: BC-160 (0˚C to +40˚C). Icom recommends charging the battery at +20˚C. The battery may
heat up or rupture if charged out of the specified temperature range. Additionally, battery performance or battery life
may be reduced.
