Do not leave the battery near fire, 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.
8
DANGER
●
Do not charge the battery near fire 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 remodeled 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.

Immersion: The transceiver retains its water resistant capabilities
outlined in U.S. Military Standards when submersed in water at a depth
of 1 meter (3.28 feet) for 2 hours.
IP67/ IP68: The IP standard is the protection level specified by the
international standard IEC 60529. The first numeral indicates the “dustresistant level” and the second numeral indicates the “water-resistant”
level.
Note:
●
Initial water-resistant tests and procedures are performed products
upon being ordered from KENWOOD.
PRECAUTIONS
●
The applicable standards listed above do not assure that the
transceiver can be used in water. The transceiver may be damaged in
a situation in which the maximum depth is over 1 meter or the maximum
submersion time exceeds 2 hours.
●
Observe the following precautions to maintain the transceiver’s water-
resistant performance:
a) Do not drop or apply strong physical shocks to the transceiver.
b) Do not disassemble or attempt to modify the transceiver. (If it is
disassembled or modified, its performance is not guaranteed.)
c) Do not soak the transceiver in water that contains a solvent or
surfactant, such as detergent or alcohol.
