2.3 How to Charge
a.
Plug the AC adaptor into the AC outlet, and then plug the cable of the
AC adaptor into the DC jack located on the back of the charger. The
indicator light blinks orange and is then ready to charge a battery.
b.
Plug the battery or the radio into the charger. Make sure the battery
terminals are good in contact with charging terminals. When the indicator
light turns to red--- charging begins.
c.
It takes approximately 2-5 hours to fully charge the battery. When the
lamp switches to green, the charging is completed. Remove the battery
or the radio unit with its battery from socket
»
When charging a radio (with the battery) the indicating lamp
will not turn green to show the fully charged status if the radio
is powered on. Only when the radio is switched off will the lamp
indicate normal operation and obtain a proper read on the status
of the battery. The radio consumes energy when it is powered on,
and the charger cannot detect the correct battery voltage while it
is in use. So, the charger will charge the battery in constant voltage
mode and fail to indicate correctly when the battery has been fully
charged.
2. BATTERY INFORMATION

radio into an insulated container for storage when not in use. Do not
put it into a metal container.
