Before using the charger
Check the battery label and charger label to see if the charger is
compatible with the battery. See also
Warning Handle the battery safely. Failure to observe the following
handling recommendations could result in personal injury and/or
equipment damage.
Before using a Li-ion battery, read the Li-ion Battery Safety
■
Information (MPD-00024-xx for IS-batteries and MPC-00006-xx
for non-IS batteries) included with your battery, and follow the
instructions it provides. Incorrect use of a Li-ion battery can
cause explosion or fire.
Do not short-circuit the battery contacts, neither intentionally nor
■
accidentally, e.g. placing the battery with conductive materials
such as keys or jewelry inside a pocket or container. Short-
circuiting the battery contacts can heat up the conductive
material.
Do not obstruct the vent hole(s) on the battery. If the vent on the
■
battery is obstructed, the battery may explode, causing personal
injury and/or equipment damage. If the vent on the radio is
obstructed, audio quality and/or key function may deteriorate and
radio seals may be damaged.
Notice Turn the radio off before removing the battery. This ensures
that the radio powers down and up correctly. Failing to follow this
procedure may require the radio to be turned off then on again to
operate correctly.
