BATTERY INFORMATION
Battery Care and Tips
This product is powered by a nickel-cadmium (Ni-Cd), nickel-metal-hydride (NiMH), or lithium-ion rechargeable battery.
The following battery tips will help you obtain the highest performance and longest cycle life from your Motorola rechargeable battery.
•Charge your new battery overnight (14-16 hrs) before using it to obtain maximum battery capacity and performance.
•Charging in non-Motorola equipment may lead to battery damage and void the battery warranty.
•When charging a battery that is attached to the radio, turn the radio off to ensure a full charge.
•The battery should be at about 25°C (room temperature) whenever possible. Charging a cold battery (below 10°C) may result in leakage of electrolyte and ultimately in failure of the battery.
•Charging a hot battery (above 35°C) results in reduced discharge capacity affecting the
performance of the radio. Motorola rapid-rate |
Q |
|
battery chargers contain a temperature-sensing |
||
circuit to ensure that the battery is charged |
m |
|
|
||
within these temperature limits. |
|
|
New batteries can be stored up to two years |
Q |
|
|
||
without signi^cant cycle loss. Store new/unused |
(/) |
|
|
||
batteries, at room temperature, in cool dry area. |
jj |
|
Batteries which have been in storage should be |
||
H |
||
m |
||
charged overnight. |
D |
|
Do not return fully charged batteries to the |
|
|
charger for an “extra boost”. This action will |
|
|
signi^cantly reduce cycle life. |
|
|
Do not leave your radio and battery in the |
|
|
charger when not charging. Continuous charging |
|
|
will shorten battery life. (Do not use your charger |
|
|
as a radio stand.) |
|
|
For optimum battery life and operation use only |
|
|
Motorola brand chargers. They were designed to |
|
|
operate as an integrated energy system. |
