The RBRC Recycle seal found on
Kenwood
nickel
metal hydride (Ni-MH) battery packs indicates
Kenwood’s
voluntary participation in an industry
program to collect and recycle Ni-MH batteries after
their operating life has expired. The RBRC program
is an alternative to disposing Ni-MH batteries with
your regular refuse or in municipal waste streams,
which is illegal in some areas.
For information on Ni-MH battery recycling in your area, call (toll
free) 1-800-8-BATTERY (1-800-822-8837).
Kenwood’s involvement in this program is part of our commitment
to preserve our environment and conserve our natural resources.
Precautions
• Do not charge the transceiver and battery pack when they are wet.
• Ensure that there are no metallic items located between the
transceiver and the battery pack.
•
Do not use options not specied by Kenwood.
•
If the die-cast chassis or other transceiver part is damaged, do not
touch the damaged parts.
•
If a headset or headphone is connected to the transceiver, reduce
the transceiver volume. Pay attention to the volume level when
turning the squelch off.
•
Do not place the microphone cable around your neck while near
machinery that may catch the cable.
•
Do not place the transceiver on unstable surfaces.
• Ensure that the end of the antenna does not touch your eyes.
• When the transceiver is used for transmission for many hours, the
radiator and chassis will become hot. Do not touch these locations
when replacing the battery pack.
• Always switch the transceiver power off before installing optional
accessories.
• The charger is the device that disconnects the unit from the AC
mains line. The AC plug should be readily accessible.
