Battery Meter

The Battery  Meter, located on the front
display, is divided into three bars. As power is
used, the bars will disappear. Figure 7.

Note:

 To ensure proper functioning of the 

battery meter use only the Motorola NiMH rechargeable battery or 
three AA alkaline batteries. The meter will not work accurately                             
with Nickel Cadmium (NiCad) or rechargeable alkaline AA batteries.

Low Battery Alert

When the battery is low, the radio will beep: 

     •  3 to 4 seconds after turning power on 
     •  every 10 minutes in standby mode 
     •  after releasing Push-To-Talk button
     •  after releasing the Call button

Note:

Remove batteries before storing your radio for extended periods. 

Batteries may corrode over time and cause permanent damage to your radio.

Belt Holster

Talkabout radios come with a belt holster
which can be used with both the NiMH and
AA battery doors.

Using Radio With Holster:

1. Position the base of the radio in bottom 

portion of holster.

2. Push the radio towards the holster until                                                                

it latches into place. Figure 8.

3. To remove radio from holster, pull the top 

tab on holster away from radio.                
Figure 9.

Note:

You may find it easier to clip the 

holster onto your belt before you insert radio 
into the holster. Figure 10.
