Powering the transceiver:

Your FR1438-2 radio transceiver operates on four AAA batteries . You may operate your FR1438-2 using the rechargeable batteries included or you may use alkaline batteries. Alkaline batteries will provide slightly better performance than the rechargeable batteries, but must never be recharged in the charging stand.

Installing the batteries:

To install batteries into the radio, it is necessary to remove the belt clip. To do this you will need to release the spring clip securing the belt clip to radio and lift the belt clip away from the radio body. Next, remove the battery compartment cover by sliding it downward towards the bottom of the transceiver. Observe the polarity symbols on the bottom of the tray when inserting the batteries. Replace the cover.

The following guidelines will improve performance and provide longer operating times for the FR1438-2:

1.Do not mix old and new batteries.
