‘Battery case (Option)

When using a BP-208 OPTIONAL BATTERY CASE attached to the transceiver, install 6 AA (R6) size alkaline batteries as illustrated below.

NOTE: Output power is automatically reduced to 1 W to retain suffi- cient power in case of an emergency, etc.

DCAUTIONS

•Use ALKALINE batteries only.

•Make sure all battery cells are the same brand, type and ca- pacity.

•Never mix old and new batteries.

Either of the above may cause a fire hazard or damage the transceiver, if ignored.

•Never incinerate used battery cells since internal battery gas may cause them to rupture.

•Never expose a detached battery case to water.

If the battery case gets wet, be sure to wipe it dry before using it.
