CAUTIONS
• 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 use.
