cycles.
• Extreme temperatures degrade battery
performance. Do not store the battery where
tempe ratures exceed 140°F (60°C ) or fall below
4°F (-20°C).
5
Getting Started
• Lithium Ion batteries have a self discharge rate
and without use, los e about 1% of t heir charge pe r
day.

stored for long periods while fully char ged. If long
term storage is required, store at half capacity.

Mike’s Direct Connect Service
There ar e two ways of commun icating over Mike’s
Direct Connect service:
• one-to-one using a private call
• one-to-many in a group call
Both of these meth ods are very similar to two-way
radio, and at a fraction of the cost of traditional
cellular. Mike’s Direct Connect also offers the Call
Alert feature, which gives recipients a notice, si milar
to a ringer, that you would like to speak to them.
