be careful when you bring or use the battery, please put battery or radio into insulated container. Do not put
it into metal container.
How to Charge
1.Plug the AC adaptor into the AC outlet, then plug the
cable of AC adaptor into the DC jack, the indicator
lights orange for 1s and turns into GREEN---waits to
charge.
2.Slide the battery or transceiver with battery into
the charger; make sure the battery terminals are in
contact with the charging terminals well. LED turns
into twinkling RED ---pre-charging begins.
3.Pre-charging for about 5 minutes, LED twinkles stop
then charging begins.
4.It takes about 4 hours to fully charge the battery, when
LED turns into GREEN— full charged

NOTE: When charging a power-on transceiver equipped with battery, the LED will not turn into green to
show the full charge status. Only when turn off the transceiver, the LED can indicate normally.
Because when the transceiver is power on, it would consumes energy, the charger cannot detect when battery
has been fully charged, the charger will charge battery in voltage consumption and fail to indicate correctly.

orange or the red light twinkles, which means the charger can not pass its self-examination or charge
the battery.
2.Trickle pre-charging: when the battery has been inserted into the charger and red light twinkles, which
means the remnant voltage is low, the charger trickle charge the battery (pre-charging status ), until the
battery reaches a certain electric quantity, the charger automatically turns into normal charging. And
if the red light stop twinkling, which means the remnant voltage meets a certain electric quantity, the
charger will charge the battery normally.
NOTE:The time for Trickle pre-charging is not exceed 30m.After 30m,the red indicator is still twinkling,it
means it is unable to charge battery. Please kindly check battery and charger.
