◆ Do not install batteries in a hazardous environment where sparks
could cause an explosion.
◆ Never discard old batteries in fire; extremely high temperatures
can cause batteries to explode.
◆ Do not short circuit the battery case terminals.
◆ Do not use commercially available rechargeable batteries.
Note:
◆ If you do not plan to use the transceiver for a long period, remove
the batteries from the battery case.
◆ This battery case has been designed for transmitting at a power
of approximately 1 W (the low power setting on your transceiver).
If you want to transmit a stronger signal (using the high power
setting on your transceiver), use an optional rechargeable battery
pack.

press on the two tabs on the
upper rear of the case then

2 Insert 6 AA (LR 6) alkaline
batteries into the battery
case.

polarities with those marked
in the bottom of the battery
case.
