This product is powered by a lithium-ion
rechargeable battery.
The following battery tips will help you obtain the
highest performance and longest cycle life from
your Motorola rechargeable battery.
failure of the battery.
•Charging a hot battery (above 35°C) results
in reduced discharge capacity, affecting the
performance of the radio. Motorola rapidrate battery chargers contain a
temperature-sensing circuit to ensure that
the battery is charged within these
temperature limits.
•New batteries can be stored up to two
years without significant cycle loss. Store
new/unused batteries in a cool dry area.
•Charge your new battery overnight (14-16 hrs) before using it to obtain maximum
battery capacity and performance.
•Charging in non-Motorola equipment may
GETTING STARTED
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
English
14
•Batteries which have been in storage
should be charged overnight.
•Do not return fully charged batteries to the
charger for an “extra boost”. This action will
significantly 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.
Recycling or Disposal of Batteries
Motorola endorses and encourages the recycling
of all re-chargeable batteries. Contact your local
Motorola dealer for further information.
Charging the Battery
If a battery is new, or its charge level is very low,
you will need to charge the battery before you
can use it in your radio.
The P icon flashes when the battery is flat
and the hardware error tone will sound. This icon
will only appear when a genuine Motorola battery
is used.
Note: Batteries are shipped uncharged from the
factory. New batteries could prematurely
indicate full charge, charge a new battery for
14-16 hrs before initial use.

to ensure proper functionality.
Warning: When charging a IP67 battery, make sure
GETTING STARTED
that the IP67 battery (or IP67 battery with
IP67 radio) is not wet prior to placing in
the charger.
Warning: The battery charger is not waterproof. For
your safety and proper operation of the
charger, IP67 radios MUST be dry prior
to placing in the battery charger for
charging. Do NOT operate the charger,
when your hands are wet or while holding
a wet IP67 radio. Do NOT touch the
battery contacts, when your hands are
wet. Do NOT put the battery into water,
as this may cause the IP67 metal
contacts to corrode.

STUN/UNSTUN
For added security and to avoid abuse of the
radio system in which you operate, a feature
known as Stun/Unstun is included in your radio.
This feature can only be activated by your
system manager or administrator.
For example, if your radio is stolen and is being
used illegally, your system administrator can
send a signal which will stun the radio making it
incapable of being used. This feature is also
useful if the system is being abused by a user
who is not complying with the correct
communications protocol.
The radio can only be unstunned, i.e. returned to
operational use, by an unstun signal sent from
the system administrator or returning the radio for
reprogramming.
