Special conditions when using IS radios

Warning Fit only an IS-approved battery to an IS radio. Fitting a 

battery or accessory that is not IS-approved exposes the customer 

to a risk of explosion which could cause serious injury or death.

For detailed information about identifying IS radios, see 

"Intrinsically Safe radios" on page 16

Before using the charger

Handle the battery safely

Warning Handle the battery safely. Failure to observe the follow-

ing handling recommendations could result in personal injury and/

or equipment damage.

■

Before using a Li-ion battery, please read the Li-ion Battery 

Safety Information (MPC-00006-xx) 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. by 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.

Attaching of labels

Warning Do not obstruct the vent hole on the battery or the vent 

hole on the radio chassis label. If the vent on the battery is 

obstructed the battery may explode, causing personal injury and/

or damage to property. If the vent on the radio is obstructed, 

audio quality and/or key function may deteriorate and radio seals 

may be damaged. 

For detailed information about attaching labels safely, see 

"Attaching labels to the radio or battery" on page 24
