BATTERY CHARGING
2
• CAUTION: Shorter battery life could occur if the batteries 
are left completely discharged, or in an excessive temper-
ature environment (above +55˚C; +131˚F) for an extended 
period of time. If the batteries must be left unused for a 
long time, they must be detached from the receiver after 
charging. Keep them safely in a cool dry place at the fol-
lowing temperature range:
–20˚C to +45˚C
(–4˚F to +113˚F) (up to a month)
–20˚C to +35˚C
(–4˚F to +95˚F)
(up to six months)
–20˚C to +25˚C
(–4˚F to +77˚F)
(up to a year*)
* We recommend charging the batteries every 6 months.
• If your Ni-MH batteries seem to have no capacity, even 
after being charged, completely discharge them by leaving 
the power ON overnight. Then, fully charge the batteries
again. If the batteries still do not retain a charge (or only 
very little charge), a new batteries must be purchased.
Prior to using the receiver for the first time, the batteries 
must be fully charged for optimum life and operation.
• The supplied batteries are rechargeable batteries.
Charge the batteries before first operating the receiver, or 
when the batteries become exhausted.
If you want to prolong the battery life, the following points 
should be observed:
- Avoid over charging.
- Use the batteries until it becomes almost completely ex-
hausted, under normal conditions.
D Charging caution
WARNING! NEVER charge alkaline batteries. 
The receiver can charge only the Ni-MH batteries (1.2 V, 
1400 mAH typ.). Other types of rechargeable battery, such 
as Ni-Cd or Li-Ion cannot be charged.
• AVOID over charging— The installed rechargeable batter-
ies can be charged during operation when the AC adapter 
or the cigarette lighter cable is connected. To prevent over 
charging, the IC-R6 has charging timer that automatically 
disconnecting* the charging line electronically after 15 hours 
from charging. However, the charging timer will reset and 
start charging again when disconnect then reconnecting the 
AC adapter or CP-18A/E more than 1 minute interval.
* When the “CHARGE” setting in the Set mode is set to “CHG2,” 
the receiver continues to trickle charge after 15 hours have past. 
• Recommended temperature range for charging:
between 0°C (+32˚F) and +40°C (+140˚F) by the receiver.
• Use the BC-196S/BC-153SC AC adapter or CP-18A/E cig-
arette liter cable only. NEVER use other manufacturers’ 
chargers.
• The external DC power supply voltage must be between 
12–16 V to charge the batteries and for operation when 
using an optional CP-18A/E.
• If the batter y icons (“
” and “
”) disappear only 
1 minute after connecting to the DC power supply, the bat-
teries may have problem. In this case, 
contact your Icom 
dealer/distributor, or pu
rchase a new batteries.
