If, during charging, the temperature is out of range, the battery might not be fully charged since the
charging is temporarily stopped until the temperature becomes suitable. The temperature range of
battery operation is from 0 °C to +45 °C in charger mode and from -30 °C to +60 °C in discharge mode.

Battery Charging Rules
Generally, to reduce the number of charge cycles as much as you can, wait for the Low Battery
message to charge, as it ensures maximum battery life. Do not use your charger as a radio holder or
leave your radio and fully charged battery connected to the charger while not charging. Continuous
charging shortens the battery life.
D.5
Additional Battery Warnings/Cautions
• To prevent injury, do not allow metal objects to touch the battery contacts.
• Do not disassemble.
• Do not throw in fire.
• Do not dispose of battery in household waste.
NOTICE: When the battery is deeply discharged (for example after left unattended for months
while connected to the radio), it cannot be recovered in all types of chargers. It is best
recovered:
• In a Single-Unit Charger.
• In a Multi-Unit Charger.
D.6
Looking after Your Radio
Never leave your radio or battery in extreme temperatures, for example, behind a windscreen in direct
sunlight.
The radio is submersible (compliant with the IP67 standard) – but only with the battery and the antenna
attached..
To clean your radio, use a moistened or antistatic cloth.
