In the “Button” column, have your dealer write down the programmable buttons next to the features that have been programmed to them.
Use the abbreviations (e.g., A for Side Button 1, D for Top Button, etc.) shown in the radio illustration at the front of this manual.
Also, where a choice exists, have your dealer indicate whether the button press is short press (SP) or long press (LP).

the charger. To charge the battery: Place the battery, with or without the radio, in
the charger. The charger LED indicates the charging progress:
LED color Battery/Charger Status
