Regular charging
When using a BP-227
BATTERY PACK
attached to the trans-
ceiver, prior to using the transceiver for the rst time, the bat­tery pack must be fully charged for optimum life and operation.
DD
Charging note
• Be sure to turn the transceiver power OFF.
Otherwise the battery pack will not be charged completely or takes longer charging time periods.
• External DC power operation becomes possible when using an optional CP-19R. The attached battery pack is also charged simultaneously, except during transmit. (see p. 16 for more details)
Even through there is no indication during regular charg­ing, the transceiver automatically stops charging the bat­tery pack when the battery pack is fully charged (BP-227’s voltage becomes approx. 7.2 V) or the continuous charg­ing time is over 15 hours.

BATTERY PACKS
Cautions
R DANGER! Use and charge only specified Icom battery
packs with Icom radios. Only Icom battery packs are tested and approved for use with Icom radios. Using third-party or counterfeit battery packs may cause smoke, re, or cause the battery to burst.
DD
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 re.
R DANGER! NEVER use or leave battery pack in areas
with temperatures above +60˚C (+140˚F). High temperature build up 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 re. 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. Do not charge or use a wet battery. If the battery gets wet, be sure to wipe it dry before using.
R DANGER! NEVER incinerate an used battery pack since
internal battery gas may cause it 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 burst, 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 specied 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 uid from inside the battery.
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.

WARNING! NEVER put the battery in a microwave oven,
high-pressure container, or in an induction heating cooker. This could cause a re, overheating, or cause the battery to rupture.
CAUTION!Always use the battery within the specied tem-
perature range for the transceiver (–10˚C to +60˚C; +14˚F to +140˚F) and the battery itself (–10˚C to +60˚C; +14˚F to +140˚F). Using the battery out of its specied 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 +45˚C; +113˚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 battery becomes about half-capacity, then keep it safely in a cool dry place with the temperature between –20˚C to +35˚C (–4˚F to +95˚F).
DD
Charging caution
R DANGER! NEVER charge the battery pack in areas with
extremely high temperatures, such as near res 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 bat-
tery charger beyond the specified time for charging. If the battery is not completely charged by the specied time, stop charging and remove the battery from the battery charger. Continuing to charge the battery beyond the specied time limit may cause a re, 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 spec-
ied temperature range: 10˚C to +40˚C (+50˚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 specified temperature range. Additionally, battery perfor­mance or battery life may be reduced.

Key-touch beep
Turns key-touch beep emission ON (Beep level 1 to 3) or OFF. (default: 3)
NOTE: The pocket beep level (Beep level 1 to 3 or OFF) also changes as this setting.
DD
Time-out timer
To prevent accidental prolonged transmission, etc., the trans­ceiver has a time-out timer. This function cuts a transmission OFF after 1–30 min. of continuous transmission. This timer can be cancelled.
• tOt.OF : The time-out timer is turned OFF.
• tOt. 1–30: The transmission is cut OFF after the set period elapses. (default: 3)
• BE CAREFUL! The transceiver will become hot when
this time-out timer function is turned OFF and transmis­sion is made for long periods.
• NOTE: When the battery pack (BP-227) becomes hot
from continuous transmittion, etc., the battery’s protection circuit may activate to protect the battery itself and then shut off the transceiver power until it has cooled down.

RESETTING FUNCTIONS
14
Partial reset
If you want to initialize the operating conditions (VFO fre­quency, VFO settings, set mode contents) without clearing the memory contents, a partial resetting function is available for the transceiver.
While pushing [CLR], push and hold [PWR] for 1 sec. to
partially reset.
CPU reset
The function display may occasionally display erroneous in­formation (e.g. when first applying power). This may be caused externally by static electricity or by other factors.
If this problem occurs, turn power OFF. After waiting a few seconds, turn power ON again. If the problem persists, per­form the following procedure.
• Partial resetting is also available. See left for details.
IMPORTANT!:
Resetting the transceiver CLEARS all memory information and initializes all values in the transceiver.
While pushing [MONI] and [CLR], push and hold [PWR]
for 1 sec. to reset the CPU.
• “CLEAR” indicates, then initial display appears.
