Safety and General Information
Operational Cautions
Antennas
Do not use any portable radio that has a damaged
antenna. If a damaged antenna comes into contact
with your skin, a minor burn can result.
Batteries
All batteries can cause property damage and/or bodily
injury such as burns if a conductive material such as
jewelry, keys, or beaded chains touches exposed
terminals. The conductive material may complete an
electrical circuit (short circuit) and become quite hot.
Exercise care in handling any charged battery,
particularly when placing it inside a pocket, purse, or
other container with metal objects.
