5 BATTERIES
Always ensure that the correct type of battery is fitted before operating your radio.
There are two types of battery available:
• The RB5V Lithium Polymer rechargeable battery is suitable for normal
everyday use of the radio. This battery should only be charged in the
recommended charger.
• The LB4V Lithium primary battery is for use in emergency only. This
battery is not rechargeable and is protected from accidental use by a
break-off tab. The LB4V is easily identifiable because of its bright
yellow colour.
• A test battery, TB6V, is also available. This battery is intended only
for the routine testing of the radios in situations where a rechargeable
battery is not required.
5.1 Battery Fitting and Removal
To remove the battery, press the grey button on the base
of the radio inwards. This will release the battery clip and
allow the battery to be removed.
To fit the battery, push the top of the battery into the
radio, before pressing it home at the bottom. Ensure that
the grey button has locked the battery in place.

5.2 Warnings
Do not attempt to charge the LB4V primary battery or the TB6V test
battery
Do not short circuit the battery terminals
Do not incinerate batteries
Do not attempt to puncture or dismantle batteries
Avoid exposing batteries to direct sunlight or temperatures below
-20°C (-4°F) or above 60°C (140°F)
In case of exposure to the cell contents, wash the affected area
thoroughly and seek medical attention.
Failure to follow these warnings may result in the battery exploding or catching fire
.
Extreme temperature caused by the failure to observe the above warnings may result in
the battery exploding or catching fire.
Dispose of batteries in a responsible manner. National or local regulations on battery
disposal may apply including restricting the disposal of batteries in domestic refuse.

SAFESEA V100 USER MANUAL
Part No. 912S-00957
5.3 Charging
The charger will accommodate either the RB5V battery by
itself or the V100 fitted with the battery. It is possible to
store the V100 in the charger with the LB4V fitted, without
the charger actually operating.
To release the battery or radio from the charger, push the
grey paddle lever on the right hand side of the charger to
the left.
Always use the recommended charger and mains
adaptor when charging the RB5V battery pack.
The charger may also be connected to a DC
supply of between 10.8V and 15.6V (12 Volt
battery system)
Always make sure the battery (or radio with
battery inserted) is dry before placing it into the
charger. The charger is not rated as waterproof.
Make sure the charger is already powered up. The GREEN
power LED will be lit. Place the radio into the charger base
and ensure it locks in place. The RED status LED will start
flashing to indicate the battery is charging. On completion
of the charge, the RED LED will stop flashing and be
permanently illuminated.
If the battery is faulty or is failing to make contact, then
the LED will not change to RED. Check that the charging
contacts on the battery are clean and retry. If the RED LED
still fails to light, this indicates that the battery is faulty and
needs replacing.
It is not recommended to transmit with the V100
while it is in the charger.
The recommended temperature range for
charging the battery is 0ºC(32ºF) to 40ºC(104ºF).
The positive wire on the 12V charging lead is
marked with a white dashed line.

6 APPENDIX
6.1 Maintenance and Troubleshooting
The V100 Radiotelephone should not need servicing during its lifetime, with the exception
of changing the primary Lithium battery before the marked expiry date. The following
procedure is recommended to be carried out on a monthly basis.
Regular cleaning, inspection and testing of the radio is advised – clean any grime or salt
residue off the unit with a weak solution of detergent in warm water. Dry radio thoroughly
after cleaning. Never use solvents as this may affect the structural integrity of the plastics
used. Ensure that the battery and charger contacts are clean.
Testing should be carried out every month and should include a brief test transmission
to another VHF radiotelephone. The test may be carried out using a spare LB4V, a test
battery, TB6V, or using the rechargeable option, RB5V. Do not use the lithium battery
provided for emergency use as this will reduce the capacity available in a distress situation.
Where applicable testing should be carried out in accordance with IMO
recommendations or national guidelines.
Check the primary battery visually to ensure that the break-off tab is intact and that there
are no signs of damage on the battery case. Inspect the radio for signs of damage.
6.2 Transportation / Shipping
The battery packs, LB4V, RB5V and TB6V used with this radio are classed as non-hazardous
under the IATA Hazardous Transport Regulations.
LB4V
• The battery should be shipped as category 3090, and packing instruction
968:section II (excepted batteries).
• The radio with its battery should be shipped as category 3091, packing
instruction 969 section II (excepted batteries).
RB5V
• The battery should be shipped as category 3480, and packing instruction
965:section II (excepted batteries).
• The radio with its battery should be shipped as category 3481, packing
instruction 966 section II (excepted batteries).
TB6V
• There are no packing or shipping restrictions on alkaline batteries, provided
that they are adequately protected against short circuits in accordance with
Special Provision A164.
For road or sea transport both the LB4V and RB5V batteries may be shipped under Special
Provision A188 of the relevant regulations.
