SAFETY

It is important that the user is aware of and under-stands

hazards common to the operation of any transceivers.

WARNING!

Turn off your transceiver prior to entering any area with
a potentially explosive atmosphere (where the air contains
gas, dust and smog, etc.), such as while taking on fuel, or
while parking at a gasoline service station.

PRECAUTIONS IN USE

Please comply with the following attentions to avoid fire,
bodily injury and damage to the transceiver.

The transceiver is recommended to transmit for 1 minute
and receive for 4 minutes. Long time transmitting or
continuous working in high power mode will make the rear
side of the transceiver generate heat.

Please don't disassemble or assemble the transceiver
under any circumstances.

Please don't expose the transceiver to direct sunlight for
a long time; don't place the transceiver near any heating
devices, either.

Please don't put the transceiver in extremely dusty,
moist or dabbling places; don't place it on unstable surfaces,
either.

If the transceiver emits smoke or strange odors, turn it
off and remove the battery from the transceiver and promptly
contact your local authorized KIRISUN dealer.

PREPARATION

Battery Precautions
CAUTION

1) 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.

2) After recharging 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.

3) Do not use the transceiver while charging the battery pack.
We recommend you switch the transceiver power OFF while
in charging.

4) Do not short-circuit the battery terminals or dispose of the
battery by fire.

5) Never attempt to remove the casing from the battery pack.

Battery Care Tips

The transceiver is equipped with a KIRISUN Li-ion/Ni-MH
Battery Pack, the following using tips of which can help you
to get the best battery performance and longest battery life.

1) Charge the new battery pack continuously for 4~7 hours
before its initial using, which ensures the maximum battery
capacity and best performance in using.

2) Charging the battery pack in non-KIRISUN equipments will
cause battery damage and the battery warranty invalid.

3) The battery pack can be charged while in the transceiver,
and to ensure it is fully charged it's recommended to charge

the battery pack with the transceiver turned off.

4) The ideal temperature to store the battery pack is 25 (room
temperature). Charging the battery pack at a low
temperature (below 0 ) will cause electrolyte leakage and
damage to the battery pack.

5) Charging the battery pack at a high temperature (above
35 ) will cause decrease in battery discharge capacity and
affect the transceiver performance. The KIRISUN rapid
charger has a temperature sensor, which ensures the
battery is charged within the temperature range mentioned
above.

6) A new battery shows no significant life shortening even after
two-year storage. The new or used battery should be stored
in a cool and dry place.

7) If recharge the battery pack after long storage, you should
charge it continuously for 4~7 hours.

8) Do not leave the transceiver and battery in the charger when
not charging. Overlong charging will shorten the battery life.
(Please do not use the charger as the transceiver's
mounting bracket.)

9) Please use KIRISUN charger to ensure battery normal work
and prolong its life. The battery and charger are designed
under an integrated concept of power system.

Battery Recycling and Disposing

After the battery life expires, the Li-ion battery can be
recycled, however, the recycling facilities are not available
everywhere.

KIRISUN goes in for the recycling of all the rechargeable
batteries. For more details please contact your local
KIRISUN distributor.

2) The charger will stop charging and the indicator turns
yellow if the charger detects the battery is damaged or if
the temperature of the battery is too high (higher than
50 for Ni-MH battery or 40 for Li-ion battery).

3) Do not charge the battery longer than the specified time.
And do not charge the battery again if it is charged fully,
otherwise, its life will be shortened or it will be
damaged.
