Important information on charging and

Make sure the Battery Select switch inside the battery
compartment is set to the “NiMH” position.
3.
Put the batteries in the compartment while paying
attention to the correct polarity of the batteries (+ and -).
4.
First use: Charge new batteries in one continuous,
uninterrupted, charge until they are full. This first
charge may take longer than normal. For longer
battery life it is advised to always recharge in one
continuous, uninterrupted charge until batteries are full
and to not recharge again while the batteries are still
full.

some time of use (several charge and discharge
cycles).

Leave the complete group of batteries in place inside
the radio and do not use these batteries or a few
of them for other purposes. This will result in a mix
of (fully) charged and (partly) empty batteries. This
can seriously damage the batteries and radio when
recharged.
