PREPARATION
■Charging the Optional NiCd Battery Pack
The optional battery pack is not charged at the
factory; charge it before use (refer to the battery
pack instruction manual).
◆
DO NOT RECHARGE THE BATTERY PACK IF IT IS
ALREADY FULLY CHARGED. DOING SO MAY CAUSE THE
LIFE OF THE BATTERY PACK TO SHORTEN OR THE
BATTERY PACK MAY BE DAMAGED.
◆
AFTER RECHARGING THE BATTERY PACK, DISCONNECT
IT FROM THE CHARGER. IF THE CHARGER POWER IS
RESET (TURNED ON AFTER BEING TURNED OFF),
RECHARGING WILL START AGAIN AND THE BATTERY
PACK WILL BECOME OVERCHARGED.
Initially charging the battery pack after purchase or
extended storage (greater than 2 months) will not
bring the battery pack to its normal operating
capacity. After repeating the charge/discharge cycle
two or three times, the operating capacity will
increase to normal.
■Installing/ Removing the Optional NiCd Battery Pack
Only use the KNB-14 and KNB-15A battery packs
with this transceiver.
◆
DO NOT SHORT THE BATTERY TERMINALS OR DISPOSE
OF THE BATTERY BY FIRE.
◆

BATTERY PACK.
