Battery Information
New battery is shipped not fully charged from the factory, please charge your
7
Page 8
battery before using it, charging a new battery for 5 hours before initial use.
The maximum battery capacity and performance is achieved after three full
charge/discharge cycles. If you notice the battery power runs lows, please
recharge the battery.
Applicable Battery
To reduce the risk of injury, please only use the battery and charger specified
by Belfone, other batteries may burst, causing bodily injury and property
damage.
Battery Tips
1. When charging your battery, keep it at a temperature among 5℃—40℃.
Temperature out of the limit may cause battery leakage or damage.
2. When charging a battery attached to a radio, turn the radio off to ensure a
full charge.
3. Do not cut off the power supply or remove the battery when charging a
battery.
4. Never charge a battery that is wet, please dry it with soft cloth prior to
charge.
5. Even if the battery is full charged, the operating time is noticeably shorter
than normal performance; it is time to buy a new battery.
To Prolong Battery Life
1. Battery performance will be greatly decreased at a temperature below 0℃,
a spare battery is necessary in cold weather, the cold battery unable to
work in this situation may work under room temperature, so keep it for later
use.
2. The dust on the battery contact may cause battery breakdown, please use
a clean dry cloth to wipe it before attaching the battery to the radio.

Page 9
Battery Storage
1. Fully charge a battery before you store it for a long time, to avoid battery
damage due to over-discharge.
2. Recharge a battery after several months’ storage, to avoid battery capacity
reduction due to over-discharge.(NI-MH batteries:3 months, Li-Ion&
Li-polymer batteries: 6 months)
3. Store your battery in a cool, dry place under room temperature, to reduce
self-discharge.
Charging the battery
Use only the charger specified by the manufacturer, the charge indicator
indicates the charging progress.
Charger Status Charger Indicator
Standby(No-load) Charge Indicator glows green

Battery is fully charged Charge Indicator glows green
Charge Steps:
1. Plug the AC connector of the switching power into the AC outlet socket.
2. Place the battery or the radio is attached with a battery in the charger.
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, please
remove the battery then.
Note: While charging the temperature out of the limit the LED indicator of charger will not
light; if battery has damaged or battery is not connected to the charger correctly,
9

analog channel to select scan list
● Scan Hang Time : When a signal is detected on a channel, scan pauses on
that channel, the radio will remain on the busy channel until the signal is no
17
Page 18
longer present. When the signal “ drop out” the radio will remain on the
channel momentarily before scan resumes. The delay time is programmed 500
to 10000 milliseconds.
●Talkback : When a signal is detected on a channel, scan pauses on that
channel, press PTT key can talk back on the channel if enable “Talk Back’
feature; if “Talk Back” isn’t checked, press PTT key may talk back on the
designated channel.
●First Priority Channel: Select first priority channel from scan list of members
channel. To begin scanning, the radio will automatically change to the first
priority channel then detect other channel on the scanning sequence. You can
set selected or a desired channel as first priority channel.
●Second Priority Channel: Select second priority channel from scan list of
members channel. To begin scanning, the radio will automatically change to
the first priority channel, then the second channel, at last detect other channel
on the scanning sequence. You can set selected or a desired channel as
second priority channel other than the first priority channel.
●TX Designated Channel : During scanning, Press PTT key will transmit on
TX designated channel. You can set TX Designated Channel as Last Active
Channel, Selected channel or a desired channel from scan list.
