!Operational Cautions
C a u t i o n
Antennas
Do not use any portable radio product that has a damaged antenna. If
a damaged antenna comes into contact with your skin, a minor burn can result.
Batteries
All batteries can cause property damage and/or bodily injury, such as burns if a conductive material such as jewelry, keys, or beaded chains touches exposed terminals. The conductive material may complete an electrical circuit (short circuit) and become quite hot. Exercise care in handling any charged battery, particularly when placing it inside a pocket, purse, or other container with metal objects.
Cleaning and Drying Considerations
Using a leather carry case may help protect the surfaces and help prevent liquids (e.g., rain) from entering into the interior of the radio product. This product is not water proof, and exposing the unit to liquids may result in permanent damage to the unit.
If your radio product interior gets wet, then do not try to accelerate drying with the use of an oven or a dryer as this will damage the radio product and void the warranty. Instead, do the following:
1.Immediately power off the radio product.
2.Remove Battery and SIM card (if so equipped) from radio product.
3.Shake excess liquid from radio product.
4.Place the radio product and battery in an area that is at room temperature and has good air flow.
