Use
This section provides simple instructions to prepare your
radio for use.
Charging the Battery
WARNING:
To avoid a possible explosion:
• Do not replace the battery in any area labeled
hazardous atmosphere.
• Do not discard batteries in a fire.
The Motorola-approved battery shipped with your radio is
uncharged. Prior to using a new battery, charge it for a
minimum of 16 hours to ensure optimum capacity and
performance. For a list of Motorola-authorized batteries and
chargers available for use with your radio, see
Accessories
on page 205 .
NOTE:
When charging a battery attached to a radio, turn
the radio off to ensure a full charge.
To charge the battery, place the battery (with or
without the radio) in a Motorola-approved charger.
The LED on the charger indicates the charging
progress; see the charger user guide.
Attaching the Battery
You can view the status of the IMPRES
™
battery if the
radio is using an IMPRES battery. See IMPRES Battery
Annunciator on page 195 for more information.
