• Do not use the radio, its accessories, and/or substitute the
batteries in potentially explosive environments. A single spark
may cause an explosion.
• Do not take apart the radio or its accessories for any reason! The
equipment has already been calibrated for maximum performance
in the factory. Only qualified experts equipped with specialized tools
and working in authorized centres, can handle the transceiver's
precision mechanics and electronics. Unauthorized dismantling of
the transceiver will void the warranty. Any service operation must
be carried out only in an authorised centre. For further information
contact your local dealer.
• Use original accessories only; otherwise you may seriously
damage your handheld transceiver.
• Turn off the radio and unplug the power supply before cleaning it.
For further information, refer to Chapter 8.
2.2.b Batteries and chargers
• Before using the battery chargers, carefully read all notes and
cautions regarding this equipment.
• Do not short-circuit the battery terminals: doing so may result in
fire, burns, or explosions.
• Never throw batteries into a fire. Do not expose them to high
temperatures; doing so may cause fires or explosions. Be careful
to always follow local regulations (which may not be the same as
those of the country of your habitual residence).
• Use only original rechargeable batteries and battery charger. Use
of unapproved accessories may cause burns, fires, or explosions,
and may cause serious damage or injuries to people.
• Battery chargers should only be used indoors and with suitable
rechargeable batteries.
• Ensure your power supply conforms to the one required for your
battery charger (AC adaptor). If you are unsure, check with your
vendor or your local electricity supplier.
• To avoid damaging the power cord of your battery charger,
connect it where it will not be stepped on and where nothing will
be placed on top of it. Insert the prongs into a socket that has
been grounded.
• Avoid shocks and excessive vibrations. Do not use the battery
charger if it has been knocked, had a fall or appears damaged. In
this case immediately contact an authorized service centre.
• To reduce the risk of electrical shocks, disconnect the power
cable before performing cleaning or maintenance. Take hold of
the plug (not the cord!) when removing it from the socket. Use
of inappropriate extension cords may cause fire or electrical
shocks.
• Do not expose the batteries directly to temperatures outside the
-20°C to +55°C range during storage. Do not charge them in
temperatures outside the +5 to +55°C range.
