shock may occur.

IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS
R short the terminals of the battery DANGER! NEVER
pack. Shorting may occur if the terminals touch metal
objects such as a key, so be careful when placing the
battery packs (or the transceiver) in bags, and so on. Carry
them so that shorting cannot occur with metal objects.
Shorting may damage not only the battery pack, but also the
transceiver.
R use and charge Icom battery packs DANGER! NEVER
with non-Icom transceivers or non-Icom chargers. Only Icom
battery packs are tested and approved for use with Icom
transceivers or charged with Icom chargers. Using thirdparty
or counterfeit battery packs or chargers may cause smoke,
re, or cause the battery to burst.
R WARNING! NEVER hold the transceiver so that the
antenna is very close to, or touching exposed parts of the
body, especially the face or eyes, while transmitting. The
transceiver will perform best if the microphone is 5 to 10 cm
away from the lips and the transceiver is vertical.
R WARNING! NEVER operate the transceiver with a
headset or other audio accessories at high volume levels.
If you experience a ringing in your ears, reduce the volume
level or discontinue use.
R WARNING! NEVER operate the transceiver while driving
a vehicle. Safe driving requires your full attention—anything
less may result in an accident.
