BATTERY PACK PRECAUTIONS
◆ Do not recharge the battery pack if it is already fully charged.
Doing so may cause the life of the battery pack to shorten or the
battery pack may be damaged.
◆ After recharging the battery pack, disconnect it from the charger.
If the charger power is reset (turned ON after being turned OFF),
recharging will start again and the battery pack will become
overcharged.
◆ Do not use the transceiver while charging the battery pack. We
recommend you switch the transceiver power OFF while charging
is taking place.
◆ Do not short the battery terminals or dispose of the battery by
fire.
◆ Never attempt to remove the casing from the battery pack.
Information concerning the (optional) Li-ion battery pack:
The battery pack includes flammable objects such as organic solvent.
Mishandling may cause the battery to rupture producing flames or
extreme heat, deteriorate, or cause other forms of damage to the
battery. Please observe the following prohibitive matters.
DANGER
•
•
Do not disassemble or reconstruct battery!
The battery pack has a safety function and protection circuit to
avoid danger. If they suffer serious damage, the battery may
generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into flame.
Do not short-circuit the battery!
Do not join the + and – terminals using any form of metal (such as
a paperclip or wire). Do not carry or store the battery pack in
containers holding metal objects (such as wires, chain-neckless or
hairpins). If the battery pack is short-circuited, excessive current
will flow and the battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or
burst into flame. It will also cause metal objects to heat up.
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Do not incinerate or apply heat to the battery!
If the insulator is melted, the gas release vent or safety function is
damaged, or the electrolyte is ignited, the battery may generate
heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into flame.
Do not use or leave the battery near fires, stoves, or other
heat generators (areas reaching over 80°C/ 176°F)!
If the polymer separator is melted due to high temperature, an
internal short-circuit may occur in the individual cells and the
battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into flame.
Do not immerse the battery in water or get it wet by other
means!
If the battery’s protection circuit is damaged, the battery may
charge at extreme current (or voltage) and an abnormal chemical
reaction may occur. The battery may generate heat or smoke,
rupture, or burst into flame.
Do not charge the battery near fires or under direct sunlight!
If the battery’s protection circuit is damaged, the battery may
charge at extreme current (or voltage) and an abnormal chemical
reaction may occur. The battery may generate heat or smoke,
rupture, or burst into flame.
Use only the specified charger and observe charging
requirements!
If the battery is charged in unspecified conditions (under high
temperature over the regulated value, excessive high voltage or
current over regulated value, or with a remodelled charger), it
may overcharge or an abnormal chemical reaction may occur.
The battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into
flame.
Do not pierce the battery with any object, strike it with an
instrument, or step on it!
This may break or deform the battery, causing a short-circuited.
The battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into
flame.
Do not jar or throw the battery!
An impact may cause the battery to leak, generate heat or smoke,
rupture, and/or burst into flame. If the battery’s protection circuit is
damaged, the battery may charge at an abnormal current (or
voltage), and an abnormal chemical reaction may occur. The
battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into flame.
•
•
•
•
•
Do not use the battery pack if it is damaged in any way!
The battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into
flame.
Do not solder directly onto the battery!
If the insulator is melted or the gas release vent or safety function
is damaged, the battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or
burst into flame.
Do not reverse the battery polarity (and terminals)!
When charging a reversed battery, an abnormal chemical
reaction may occur. In some cases, an unexpected large amount
of current may flow upon discharging. The battery may generate
heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into flame.
Do not reverse-charge or reverse-connect the battery!
The battery pack has positive and negative poles. If the battery
pack does not smoothly connect with a charger or operating
equipment, do not force it; check the polarity of the battery. If the
battery pack is reverse-connected to the charger, it will be
reverse-charged and an abnormal chemical reaction may occur.
The battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into
flame.
Do not touch a ruptured and leaking battery!
If the electrolyte liquid from the battery gets into your eyes, wash
your eyes out with fresh water as soon as possible, without
rubbing your eyes. Go to the hospital immediately. If left
untreated, it may cause eye-problems.
•
Do not charge the battery for longer than the specified time!
If the battery pack has not finished charging even after the
regulated time has passed, stop it. The battery may generate
heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into flame.
Do not place the battery pack into a microwave or high
pressure container!
The battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst into
flame.
Keep ruptured and leaking battery packs away from fire!
If the battery pack is leaking (or the battery emits a bad odor),
immediately remove it from flammable areas. Electrolyte leaking
from battery can easily catch on fire and may cause the battery to
generate smoke or burst into flame.
Do not use an abnormal battery!
If the battery pack emits a bad odor, appears to have different
coloring, is deformed, or seems abnormal for any other reason,
remove it from the charger or operating equipment and do not
use it. The battery may generate heat or smoke, rupture, or burst
into flame.
•
•
•
■ Using the Li-ion Battery Pack
•
Charge the battery pack before using it.
•
To keep the battery discharge at a minimum, remove
the battery pack from the equipment when it is not in
use. Store the battery pack in a cool and dry location.
•
When storing the battery pack for a long period:
Remove the battery pack from the equipment.
Discharge the battery pack, if possible.
Store the battery pack in a cool (below 25°C/ 77°F)
and dry location.
■ Characteristics of the Li-ion Battery Pack
•
As the battery pack is charged and discharged
repeatedly, the battery capacity decreases.
•
Even if the battery pack is unused, the battery pack
degrades.
•
It takes a longer time to charge the battery pack in
cooler areas.
•
The life of battery pack is shortened when it is charged
and discharged in hotter areas. When the battery pack
is stored in a hot location, the battery pack degrades
quicker. Do not leave the battery pack in vehicles or
near heating appliances.
•
When the battery pack operating time becomes short,
even if it is fully charged, replace the battery pack.
Continuing to charge and discharge the battery pack
may result in elecrolyte leakage.
■ Charging the Li-ion Battery Pack
When charging a transceiver with a Li-ion battery
pack, the safety catch of the battery pack may stick
out past the battery. When inserting the transceiver
with the battery pack into the charger, the safety
catch will touch the metal contacts of the charger
and the charger LED will momentarily light red. Be
sure to push the transceiver fully into the battery
pack slot so the safety catch no longer touches the
charger terminals. Once in place, the battery pack
will begin charging.
For charging procedures, refer to the charger
Instruction Manual.
INSTALLING/ REMOVING THE (OPTIONAL) RECHARGEABLE BATTERY

speak into the microphone to respond to the call. The
transceiver will continue scanning after an adjustable
time delay, if the PTT switch is released, and no further
signal is received.
When the displayed group is not locked out of the
scanning sequence, the add indicator ( ) will appear on
the display.
PRIORITY SCAN
The priority channel must be programmed in order for
Priority Scan to function.
The transceiver will automatically change to the priority
channel when a signal is received on it, even if a signal
is being received on a normal channel.
The indicator appears when the displayed channel is
the priority channel.
25
2-TONE SIGNALLING (Conventional Format)
2-Tone Signalling is either activated or deactivated by
your dealer.
2-Tone Signalling only opens the squelch when the
transceiver receives two tones corresponding to those
set up in the transceiver. When the squelch opens, you
will be able to hear the caller without any further action.
After a correct 2-Tone signal is received and the squelch
opens, pressing the key programmed as Monitor will
cancel the connection.
If your dealer programmed Transpond for 2-Tone
Signalling, your transceiver will automatically send an
acknowledgment signal to the station that called you
with the correct 2-Tone signal. Transpond does not
function when you are called as a Group call.
If your dealer programmed Tone Alert for 2-Tone
Signalling, your transceiver will emit a beep when the
correct 2-Tone signal is received.
Note: This transceiver is only capable of decoding 2-Tone Signals. It
cannot encode a 2-Tone Signal.

Radio Frequency Energy Safety Information
This Kenwood transceiver has been tested and complies with the standards listed below, in regards
to Radio Frequency (RF) energy and electromagnetic energy (EME) generated by the transceiver.
• FCC RF exposure limits for Occupational Use Only . RF Exposure limits adopted by the FCC are generally
•
•
•
based on recommendations from the National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements, & the
American National Standards Institute.
FCC OET Bulletin 65 Edition 97-01 Supplement C
American National Standards Institute (C95.1 – 1992)
American National Standards Institute (C95.3 – 1992)
This Kenwood transceiver generates RF EME while transmitting. RF EME (Radio Frequency Electric &
Magnetic Energy) has the potential to cause slight thermal, or heating effects to any part of your body less
than the recommended distance from this radio transmitter’s antenna. RF energy exposure is determined
primarily by the distance to and the power of the transmitting device. In general, RF exposure is minimized
when the lowest possible power is used or transmission time is kept to the minimum required for consistent
communications, and the greatest distance possible from the antenna to the body is maintained. The
transceiver has been designed for and is classified for Occupational Use Only . Occupational/ controlled
exposure limits are applicable to situations in which persons are exposed to RF energy as a consequence
of their employment, and such persons have been made aware of the potential for exposure and can
exercise control over their exposure. This means you can use the transceiver only if you are aware of
the potential hazards of operating a transceiver and are familiar in ways to minimize these hazards. This
transceiver is not intended for use by the general public in uncontrolled environments. Uncontrolled
environment exposure limits are applicable to situations in which the general public may be exposed to RF
energy, or in which the persons who are exposed as a consequence of their employment may not be fully
aware of the potential for exposure or cannot exercise control over their exposure.
The following list provides you with the information required to ensure that you are aware of RF
exposure and of how to operate this transceiver so that the FCC RF exposure limitations are not
exceeded.
•
•
•
While transmitting (holding the PTT switch or speaking with VOX enabled), always keep the antenna
and the radio at least 3 cm (1 3/16 inches) from your body or face, as well as from any bystanders. A
LED on the top of the radio shows red when the transmitter is operating in both PTT and VOX modes.
Do not transmit for more than 50% of the total transceiver use time; transmitting over 50% of the total use
time may exceed the limits in accordance to the FCC RF exposure requirements. Nominal transceiver
operation is 5% transmission time, 5% reception time, and 90% stand-by time.
Use only the specified antenna for this transceiver; this may be either the antenna provided with the
transceiver or another antenna authorized by Kenwood.
Use only Kenwood authorized accessories (antennas, battery packs, belt clips, Speaker/ Mics or
headsets etc.): When worn on the body, always place the radio in a Kenwood recommended clip or
carrying case meant for this product. The use of other than recommended or approved body- worn
accessories may result in RF exposure levels which exceed the FCC’s occupational/ controlled
environment RF exposure limits.
To ensure that your exposure to RF EME is within the FCC limits for occupational use, you must
observe and adhere to the above points.
Electromagnetic Interference Compatibility
Electronic devices are susceptible to electromagnetic interference (EMI) if they are not adequately
shielded or designed for electromagnetic compatibility. Because this transceiver generates RF
energy, it can cause interference to such equipment.
•
•
Turn OFF your transceiver where signs are posted to do so. Hospitals and health care facilities use
equipment that is sensitive to electromagnetic radiation.
Turn OFF your transceiver while on board an aircraft when so instructed. Use of the transceiver must
be in accordance with airline regulations and/or crew instructions.
