Battery
Before attaching or removing the battery make sure your radio is turned off by turning the power/volume
knob all the way counter-clockwise.
Installation
Make sure the battery is aligned in parallel with the radio body with the lower edge of the battery about
1-2cm below the edge of the radio.
Once aligned with the guide-rails, slide the battery upward until you hear a click sound to lock the
battery in place.
Removal
To remove the battery, press “PUSH” buckle on the middle top (see Figure 2. 1,”Radioddity GA-510
Radio, overview”), as you slide the battery downward.
Charging and battery maintenance
Charging
Battery should be fully charged before initial use. Optimum battery efficiency will be achieved after the
three full battery charge and discharge cycles.
How to hook up and use the charger correctly:
1. Plug the DC connector of the power adaptor into the charger base.
2. Plug the AC connector of the power adaptor into an AC wall outlet.
3. Place the radio in the charging base.
4. Make sure the radio is making contact with the charger. When the red LED comes on steady, your
radio is charging.
5. The radio is fully charged once the charger’s green status LED goes steady. Please remove the radio
at that time to avoid over-charging.

The charger and battery are fitted with matching notches so that the battery can be charged individually!
That is very practical if you have two batteries, that you can charge one battery while still using your radio.
Radio should be POWERED OFF during charge cycle.
