1 Match the guides of the
battery pack with the
corresponding grooves on
the upper rear of the
transceiver, then firmly press
the battery pack to lock it in
place.
2 Flip the safety catch into
place to prevent accidentally
pressing the release latch
and removing the battery.
3 To remove the battery pack,
lift the safety catch, press the
release latch, then pull the
battery pack away from the
transceiver.
Note:
◆
To lift the battery pack safety catch, use a piece of hardened
plastic or metal, such as a screwdriver, that is no more than
6 mm wide and 1 mm thick. It is imperative that you place the
implement under only the lip of the safety catch so that you do
not damage the release latch.
◆
Before charging a battery pack that is attached to the transceiver,
ensure that the safety catch is firmly closed.
◆
While operating the transceiver using a Li-ion or Ni-MH battery
pack in areas with an ambient temperature of –10
° C/ +14 ° F and
lower, operating time may be shortened.
