■ Battery charging

Prior to using the transceiver for the first time, the battery
pack must be fully charged for optimum life and operation.

CAUTION: To avoid damage to the transceiver, turn the
power OFF while charging.

• Recommended temperature range for charging: 

+10°C to +40°C (+50°F to +104°F)

• Use the specified chargers (BC-119N and BC-121N).

NEVER use another manufacture’s charger.

• Use the specified AC adapter. NEVER use another manu-

facture’s adapter.

■ Battery caution

insert battery pack/transceiver

(with the battery pack attached) in a wet or soiled condition
into the charger. This may result in corrosion of the charger
terminals or damage to the charger. The charger is not wa-
terproof and water can easily get into it.

incinerate used battery packs. Internal battery gas

may cause an explosion.

immerse the battery pack in water. If the battery

pack becomes wet, be sure to wipe it dry BEFORE attaching
it to the transceiver.

short the terminals of the battery pack. Also, cur-

rent may flow into nearby metal objects, such as a necklace,
etc. Therefore, be careful when carrying with, or placing near
metal objects, carrying in handbags, etc.

If your battery pack seems to have no capacity even after
being charged, completely discharge it by leaving the power
ON overnight. Then, fully charge the battery pack again. If the
batteries still do not retain a charge (or very little), new bat-
tery pack must be purchased.
