Li-ion battery features
New batteries are activated from factory. Please charge your battery before using
it. The maximum battery capacity and performance is achieved after three full
charge/ discharge cycles.
●
The service life of batteries is determined by the number of Charge cycles. To
prolong battery life, do not charge more than necessary and do not try to charge
until the battery remaining capacity is low. To not keep it in the charger after the
battery is fully charged.
●
To reduce self-discharge, please remove the battery from the radio if you
do not plan on using it for a long time and store your battery in a cool, dry location.
●
Charge your battery to about 50% of its capacity before you store it for a long
period of time to prevent a decrease in the batteries performance.
●
As the battery is charged and discharged repeatedly, the battery capacity
decreases. Even if the battery is unused, the battery degrades. Storing the battery at
high temperature will shorten its lifecycle.
Charging the Li-ion battery
●
When the battery power runs low the radio will send alert sounds. Please recharge
the battery at that time.
●
Please only use the battery and charger specified by Connect Systems.
●
When charging a battery attached to a radio, please turn the radio off.
●
Please don
’
t remove the battery from the charger before fully charged, or the
battery could be damaged.
●
Please remove the battery when the battery is fully charged. Do not keep the
battery in the charger to be trickle charged.
Note: While the battery is charged, the ambient temperature must be within 0~40 degrees
centigrade, Temperature out of that limit may reduce the working life or charging efficiency.
Charging Steps
1. Place the battery or the radio attached with a battery in the charger.
2. Plug the AC connector of the power supply into the outlet socket.
3. Making sure the battery is connected to the charger, the charging process initiates
when the charger indicator glows red.
4. The charger indicator glows green when the battery is fully charged.
Note: If the charger indicator will not glow, then the battery is not connected to the charger,
the battery is damaged, the charger is damaged, the power supply is damaged, the
temperature is out of limits, or the power supply is not connected to AC power.
