Introduction
Charging Instructions
MPORTANT: The battery is shipped from the factory
uncharged and must be charged before use.
Your battery will need to be charged using the rapid
charge method before operating your Radio for the first
time. The rapid charge method fully charges your battery
in 60 minutes.
Your battery charger has the capability of charging both a
battery inside the radio (rapid charge method) and a
spare battery (slow charge method) simultaneously.
OTE:
Do not leave the Radio or battery in the charger for
extended periods of time (1 week) in order to avoid a
decrease in overall battery performance.
Plug the round end of the transformer cord into the
socket located on the back of the charger.
Plug the transformer into the appropriate AC outlet.
Rapid Charge Method (battery inside radio)
Align the grooved rails of the Radio with the guide
rails of the charger and insert the radio, with the
battery inside, into the charger pocket. Refer to
Figure 4.
OTE:
The radio can be left on to receive communications
while charging without causing harm to the battery or
battery charger. However, if the radio remains on
while charging, it will require at least 25% more time
for the battery to charge to full capacity.
