OPERATING THEORYElectromagnetic radiation which has frequencies of20,000 Hz (20 kHz*) and above is called radio frequency (RF)energy because it is useful in radio transmissions. The IC-R5receives RF energy from 0.150 MHz* to 1309.995 MHz andconverts it into audio frequency (AF) energy which in turn ac-tuates a loudspeaker to create sound waves. AF energy is inthe range of 20 to 20,000 Hz.*kHz is an abbreviation of kilohertz or 1000 hertz, MHz is abbreviationof megahertz or 1,000,000 hertz, where hertz is a unit of frequency.
OPERATING NOTESThe IC-R5 may receive its own oscillated frequency, resultingin no reception or only noise reception, on some frequencies.
The IC-R5 may receive interference from extremely strongsignals on different frequencies or when using an externalhigh-gain antenna.

BATTERY CHARGING
New2001
2 Battery installationBefore installing, or replacing the batteries, push [PWR] for1 sec. to turn the power OFF.
qRemove the batterycover from the receiver.
w Install 2 R6 (AA) size Ni-Cd or Ni-MH batteries.• Be sure to observe the cor-
rect polarity.
Keep the battery contactsclean to avoid rust orpoor contact. It’s a goodidea to clean the batteryterminals once a week.
CautionDD Battery caution• CAUTION! NEVER short the battery terminals. Also, current
may flow into nearby metal objects such as a necklace, sobe careful when placing battery cells in handbags, etc.
• NEVER mix old and new batteries.
• Make sure all battery cells are the same brand, type andcapacity.Either of the above may cause a fire hazard or damage thereceiver if ignored.
• NEVER incinerate used battery cells. Internal battery gasmay cause explosion.
If your re-chargeable batteries seem to have no capacity evenafter being charged, completely discharge them by leavingthe power ON overnight. Then fully charge the batteriesagain. If the batteries still does not retain a charge (or very lit-tle charge), a new battery cells must be purchased.
DD Charging cautionRWARNING! NEVER charge dry or alkaline batteries.
AVOID over charging— The installed re-chargeable batteriescan be charged during operation when the AC adapter or theoptional cigarette lighter cable is connected. To prevent overcharging, the IC-R5 has charging timer that automatically dis-connecting the charging line electronically after 15 hours fromcharging. However, the charging timer will reset and startcharging again when disconnect then re-connecting the ACadapter or CP-18A/E more than 1 min. interval.
• Recommended temperature for charging:±0˚C to +40˚C (; +32˚F to +140˚F)
• Connect the supplied (or optional for UK and Italy versions)AC adapter or optional cigarette lighter cable only whencharging the installed Ni-Cd or Ni-MH batteries. NEVER useother manufactures’ chargers.
CAUTION: BE SURE to disconnect the CP-18A/E fromthe cigarette lighter socket when charging is finished, be-cause, a slight current still follows in the CP-18A/E and thevehicle’s battery will become exhausted.
