PREPARATION
BAttery pAck precAutionS
Do not use battery packs or battery chargers not recommended by Kenwood.
Do not recharge the battery pack if it is already fully charged. Doing so may cause the life of the battery pack to shorten or the battery pack may be damaged.
After charging the battery pack, disconnect it from the charger. If the charger power is reset (turned ON after being turned OFF), recharging will start again and the battery pack will become overcharged.
Do not use the transceiver while charging the battery pack. We recommend you switch the transceiver power OFF while charging is taking place.
Do not charge the battery pack when the battery pack or transceiver is wet, to avoid the risk of fire or damage. Wipe the water from the battery pack or transceiver using a dry cloth before charging.
Do not short the battery terminals or dispose of the battery by fire.
Never attempt to remove the casing from the battery pack.
■Charging the Battery Pack
For charging procedures, refer to the battery charger Instruction Manual.

Information concerning the (optional) Li-ion battery pack:
The battery pack includes flammable objects such as organic solvent. Mishandling may cause the battery to rupture producing flames or extreme heat, deteriorate, or cause other forms of damage to the battery. Please observe the following prohibitive matters.
DANGER
•Do not disassemble or reconstruct battery!
The battery pack has a safety function and protection circuit to avoid danger. If they suffer serious damage, the battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into flame.
•Do not short-circuit the battery!
Do not join the + and – terminals using any form of metal (such as a paper clip or wire). Do not carry or store the battery pack in containers holding metal objects (such as wires, chainnecklace or hairpins). If the battery pack is short-circuited, excessive current will flow and the battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into flame. It will also cause metal objects to heat up.
•Do not incinerate or apply heat to the battery!
If the insulator is melted, the gas release vent or safety function is damaged, or the electrolyte is ignited, the battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into flame.
•Do not use or leave the battery near fires, stoves, or other heat generators (areas reaching over 80°C/ 176°F)!
If the polymer separator is melted due to high temperature, an internal short-circuit may occur in the individual cells and the battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into flame.
•Avoid immersing the battery in water or getting it wet by other means!
If the battery becomes wet, wipe it off with a dry towel before use. If the battery’s protection circuit is damaged, the battery may charge at extreme current (or voltage) and an abnormal chemical reaction may occur. The battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into flame.
3
DANGER
•Do not charge the battery near fires or under direct sunlight!
If the battery’s protection circuit is damaged, the battery may charge at extreme current (or voltage) and an abnormal chemical reaction may occur. The battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into flame.
•Use only the specified charger and observe charging requirements!
If the battery is charged in unspecified conditions (under high temperature over the regulated value, excessive high voltage or current over regulated value, or with a remodelled charger), it may overcharge or an abnormal chemical reaction may occur. The battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into flame.
•Do not pierce the battery with any object, strike it with an instrument, or step on it!
This may break or deform the battery, causing a short-circuit. The battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into flame.
•Do not jar or throw the battery!
An impact may cause the battery to leak, generate heat or smoke, rupture, and/or burst into flame. If the battery’s
protection circuit is damaged, the battery may charge at an abnormal current (or voltage), and an abnormal chemical reaction may occur.
•Do not use the battery pack if it is damaged in any way!
The battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into flame.
•Do not solder directly onto the battery!
If the insulator is melted or the gas release vent or safety function is damaged, the battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into flame.
•Do not reverse the battery polarity (and terminals)!
When charging a reversed battery, an abnormal chemical reaction may occur. In some cases, an unexpected large amount of current may flow upon discharging. The battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into flame.
4
DANGER
•Do not reverse-charge or reverse-connect the battery!
The battery pack has positive and negative poles. If the battery pack does not smoothly connect with a charger or operating equipment, do not force it; check the polarity of the battery. If the battery pack is reverse-connected to the charger, it will be reverse-charged and an abnormal chemical reaction may occur. The battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into flame.
•Do not touch a ruptured and leaking battery!
If the electrolyte liquid from the battery gets into your eyes, wash your eyes out with fresh water as soon as possible, without rubbing your eyes. Go to the hospital immediately. If left untreated, it may cause eye-problems.
•Do not charge the battery for longer than the specified time!
If the battery pack has not finished charging even after the regulated time has passed, stop it. The battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into flame.
•Do not place the battery pack into a microwave or high pressure container!
The battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into flame.
•Keep ruptured and leaking battery packs away from fire!
If the battery pack is leaking (or the battery emits a bad odor), immediately remove it from flammable areas. Electrolyte leaking from battery can easily catch on fire and may cause the battery to generate smoke or burst into flame.
•Do not use an abnormal battery!
If the battery pack emits a bad odor, appears to have different coloring, is deformed, or seems abnormal for any other reason, remove it from the charger or operating equipment and do not use it. The battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into flame.
5
■Using the Li-ion Battery Pack
•Charge the battery pack before using it.
•To keep the battery discharge at a minimum, remove the battery pack from the equipment when it is not in use. Store the battery pack in a cool and dry location.
•When storing the battery pack for a long period:
1 Remove the battery pack from the equipment.
2 Discharge the battery pack, if possible.
3 Store the battery pack in a cool (below 25°C/ 77°F) and dry location.
■Characteristics of the Li-ion Battery Pack
•As the battery pack is charged and discharged repeatedly, the battery capacity decreases.
•Even if the battery pack is unused, the battery pack degrades.
•It takes a longer time to charge the battery pack in cooler areas.
•The life of battery pack is shortened when it is charged and discharged in hotter areas. When the battery pack is stored in a hot location, the battery pack degrades quicker. Do not leave the battery pack in vehicles or near heating appliances.
•When the battery pack operating time becomes short, even if it is fully charged, replace the battery pack. Continuing to
charge and discharge the battery pack may result in electrolyte leakage.

inStAlling/ removing the (optionAl) BAttery pAck
1 Match the guides of the battery pack with the corresponding grooves on the upper rear of the transceiver, then firmly press the battery pack to lock it in place.
2 Lock the safety catch to prevent accidentally pressing the release latch and removing the battery pack.
3 To remove the battery pack, lift the safety catch, press the release latch, then pull the battery pack away from the transceiver.
Note:
To lift the battery pack safety catch, use a piece of hardened plastic or metal, such as a screwdriver, that is no more than 6 mm wide and mm thick. It is imperative that you place the
implement under only the lip of the safety catch so that you do not damage the release latch.
Before charging a battery pack that is attached to the transceiver, ensure that the safety catch is firmly closed.
While operating the transceiver using a Li-ion battery pack in areas with an ambient temperature of – 0°C/ + 4°F and lower, operating time may be shortened.
