The blue secondary battery pack is for daily use of the radio. When the 
battery level is low, you should recharge the battery.

The radio display shows the battery 
status. When the battery symbol is empty 
and flashing, the battery should be 
recharged as soon as possible. 

Removing and inserting the battery pack

To remove 

the battery pack, do as follows:

1.

Open the safety lock as shown.

2. Remove the battery.

To insert

 the battery pack, attach the battery 

and close the safety lock as shown on the 
previous page.

If the radio is not used for several weeks it is 
recommended to store the radio and battery 
separated to reduce self discharge of the 
battery.
