Charging and battery maintenance

- Charging

Battery should be fully charged before initial use. Optimum battery efficiency will be achieved

after three times of battery fully charged and discharge cycles.

How to hook up and use the charger correctly:

1. Plug the USB cable into the power adapter.

2. Plug the AC adapter of the power adapter into the main AC outlet.

3. The other end of the USB is connected to the USB port of the radio.

Note: Radio should be turned OFF during charging.

- Battery Maintenance

The battery for your radio comes uncharged from the factory; please let it charge for at least four

to five hours before using your radio.

• Use only batteries approved by the original manufacturer.

• Never attempt to disassemble your battery pack.

• Do not expose your batteries to fire or intense heat

• Dispose of batteries in accordance with local recycling regulations. Batteries do not belong in

your trashcan!

- Prolonging your battery’s life

• Only charging batteries in normal room temperatures.

• When charging a battery attached to the radio, power off the radio for a faster charge.

• Do not unplug the charger or remote control until charging is complete.

• Never charge or use a wet battery.

• Batteries wear out over time. When the radio is operated in a shorter time, please consider

purchasing a new battery to replace.

• Battery’s performance will be reduced in temperatures below zero. When working in cold

environments, it is suggested to prepare a spare battery. Preferably inside your jacket or in a

similar location in order to keep the battery warm.

• Dust may interfere with the connection between the battery and the radio. Wipe the contacts

with a clean cloth if necessary to ensure proper contact with the radio and charger.

Note: If your battery has become wet, take it down from the radio, wipe it dry with a towel or soft

tissue, and put it in a plastic bag with a handful of dry rice. Tie the bag up and leave there overnight.

The rice will absorb any remaining moisture in the battery.

This method is only effective against minor splashes (light rain for instance). A soaked radio may

possibly be defective to use.

- Storage

In order to prevent damaging from over discharge, the battery must be left with partial power.

This radio uses a lithium-based battery and a 40% charge is recommended. This level minimizes

age-related capacity loss while keeping the battery in operating condition and allowing self-

discharge.

To avoid severe capacity degradation of your battery while in long-term storage, please charge

the battery at least every six (6) months.

Store your batteries in a cool and dry place, never above normal room temperatures.
