Misuse can also cause damage to the battery or degradation of battery performance. R DANGER! Use and charge only specified Icom battery packs with Icom radios or Icom charger. Only Icom battery packs are tested and approved for use and charge with Icom radios or Icom charger. Using third-party or coun-
terfeit battery packs or charger may cause smoke, fire, or cause the battery to burst. D Battery caution R DANGER! DO NOT hammer or otherwise impact the battery. Do not use the battery if it has been severely im-
pacted or dropped, or if the battery has been subjected to heavy pressure. Battery damage may not be visible on the outside of the case. Even if the surface of the battery does not show cracks or any other damage, the cells inside the battery may rupture or catch fire. 19 R DANGER! NEVER use or leave battery packs in areas with temperatures above +60C (+140F). High tempera-
ture buildup in the battery, such as could occur near fires or stoves, inside a sun heated car, or in direct sunlight may cause the battery to rupture or catch fire. Excessive temperatures may also degrade battery performance or shorten battery life. R DANGER! DO NOT expose the battery to rain, snow, seawater, or any other liquids. Never charge or use a wet battery. If the battery gets wet, be sure to wipe it dry before using. The battery is not waterproof. R DANGER! NEVER incinerate used battery packs since internal battery gas may cause them to rupture, or may cause an explosion. R DANGER! NEVER solder the battery terminals or NEVER modify the battery pack. This may cause heat gen-
eration, and the battery may rupture, emit smoke or catch fire. R DANGER! Use the battery only with the transceiver for which it is specified. Never use a battery with any other equipment, or for any purpose that is not specified in this instruction manual. R DANGER! If fluid from inside the battery gets in your eyes, blindness can result. Rinse your eyes with clean water, without rubbing them, and see a doctor immediately. WARNING! Immediately stop using the battery if it emits an abnormal odor, heats up, or is discolored or deformed. If any of these conditions occur, contact your Icom dealer or distributor. WARNING! Immediately wash, using clean water, any part of the body that comes into contact with fluid from inside the battery. WARNING! NEVER put the battery in a microwave oven, high-
pressure container, or in an induction heating cooker. This could cause a fire, overheating, or cause the battery to rupture. CAUTION: Always use the battery within the specified tem-
perature range for the transceiver (30C to +60C; 22F to +140F) and the battery itself (20C to +60C; 4F to
+140F). Using the battery out of its specified temperature range will reduce the batterys performance and battery life. CAUTION: Shorter battery life could occur if the battery is left fully charged, completely discharged, or in an ex-
cessive temperature environment (above +50C; +122F) for an extended period of time. If the battery must be left unused for a long time, it must be detached from the radio after discharging. You may use the battery until the remain-
ing capacity is about half, then keep it safely in a cool dry place with the temperature range as below:
20C to +50C (4F to +122F) (within a month) 20C to +40C (4F to +95F) 20C to +20C (4F to +68F)
(within three months)
(within a year) BATTERY CHARGING 8 D Charging caution R DANGER! NEVER charge the battery pack in areas with extremely high temperatures, such as near fires or stoves, inside a sun heated car, or in direct sunlight. In such en-
vironments, the safety/protection circuit in the battery will activate, causing the battery to stop charging. WARNING! NEVER charge or leave the battery in the bat-
tery charger beyond the specified time for charging. If the battery is not completely charged by the specified time, stop charging and remove the battery from the battery charger. Continuing to charge the battery beyond the speci-
fied time limit may cause a fire, overheating, or the battery may rupture. WARNING! NEVER insert the transceiver (battery attached to the transceiver) into the charger if it is wet or soiled. This could corrode the battery charger terminals or damage the charger. The charger is not waterproof. CAUTION: NEVER charge the battery outside of the speci-
fied temperature range: BC-160 (0C to +40C; +32F to
+104F). Icom recommends charging the battery at +20C
(+68F). The battery may heat up or rupture if charged out of the specified temperature range. Additionally, battery per-
formance or battery life may be reduced. 20 8 BATTERY CHARGING Optional battery chargers D Rapid charging with the BC-160 The optional BC-160 provides rapid charging of the Li-ion battery pack.
