Batteries
All batteries can cause property damage and/or bodily injury
such as burns if a conductive material such as jewelry, keys,
or beaded chains touch exposed terminals. The conductive
material may complete an electrical circuit (short circuit) and
become quite hot. Exercise care in handling any charged
battery, particularly when placing it inside a pocket, purse,
or other container with metal objects.
CHARGER SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Before using the battery charger, read all instructions and
cautionary markings on:
1. the battery
2. the battery charger, and
3. the radio using the battery.
Caution:
To reduce the risk of injury, only charge the Motorola
approved rechargeable battery for this product. Other types of
batteries may burst, causing personal injury and damage.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
1. Do not expose the charger to rain or snow.
2. Do not operate or disassemble the charger if it has received
a sharp blow, or has been dropped or damaged in any way.
3. Never alter the AC cord or plug provided with the unit. If the
plug will not fit the AC outlet, have proper outlet installed by
a qualified electrician. An improper condition can result in a
risk of electric shock.
4. To reduce the risk of damage to the cord or plug, pull by the
plug rather than the cord when disconnecting the charger
from the AC outlet.
5. To reduce the risk of electric shock, unplug the charger from
the AC outlet before attempting any maintenance or
cleaning.
6. Use of an attachment not recommended or sold by Motorola
may result in a risk of fire, electric shock, or personal injury.
7. Make sure the cord is located so that it will not be stepped
on, tripped over or subjected to damage or stress.
8. An extension cord should not be used unless absolutely
necessary. Use of an improper extension cord could result
in a risk of fire and/or electric shock. If an extension cord
must be used, make sure:
• That the pins on the plug of the extension cord are the same
number, size and shape as those on the plug of the charger.
• That the extension cord is properly wired and in good
electrical condition, and
• That the cord size is 18 AWG (1mm
2
) for lengths up to 100 feet
(30 metres) and 16 AWG (1.3mm
2
) for lengths up to 150 feet
(45 metres).
9. The supply cord of this charger cannot be replaced. If the
cord is damaged please return to your place of purchase.
