IMPORTANT NOTICE
H Please read this manual carefully to become familiar with the features of this transceiver.
H When transmitting, hold the radio in a vertical position with its microphone 2.5 to 5 cm away from your
mouth and keep the antenna at least 2.5cm away from your head.
H The radio must be used with a maximum operating duty cycle not exceeding 50 %, in typical Push-to-Talk
(PTT) configurations. DO NOT transmit for more than 50 % of total radio use time (50 % duty cycle).
Transmitting more than 50 % of the time can cause RF exposure compliance requirements to be exceeded.
The radio is transmitting when the red LED on the top of the radio is illuminated. You can cause the radio
to transmit by pressing the PTT button or by using the VOX headset, model VC-25.
H Always use the FNB-V95LI or FNB-V96LI Lithium-Ion Battery.
H Perform the battery charging where the ambient temperature range +10 °C to +40 °C. Charge out of this
range could cause damage to the battery pack.
H Battery Pack shall not be exposed to excessive heat such as sunshine, fire or the like.
H Always use Vertex Standard authorized accessories.
Vertex Standard shall not be liable for any damage or accidents such as fire, leakage or explosion of
batteries, etc., caused by the malfunction of non-Vertex Standard accessories.
H This radio generates RF electromagnetic energy during transmit mode. This radio is designed for and
classified as occupational use only, meaning it must be used only during the course of employment by
individuals aware of hazardous, and the ways to minimize such hazardous. This radio is not intended for
use by the General Population in an uncontrolled environment.

IMPORTANT NOTICE FOR THE LI-ION BATTERY PACK
CONTAINS LITHIUM-ION BATTERY.
MUST BE RECYCLED OR DISPOSED OF PROPERLY.
H Never short-circuit the connection terminals on the battery or charger!
H Do not attempt to open the battery pack, as personal injury or damage to the battery pack could
occur if a cell or cells become accidentally short-circuited.
H Before using a battery pack for the first time, charge it completely. Do not attempt charge a pack with the incorrect
charger, as this can damage or shorten the life of the pack.
H When a battery pack is not used for a long time, please remove it from the transceiver. Also, while in storage, the
charge will drain slightly over time and the battery should be recharged 50% each six months.
H When carefully maintained, a pack should be useful for about 300 charge/discharge cycles.
H The following abuses can shorten the useful life of the battery,and should be avoided:
Exceeding the specified temper-ature limits;
Overcharging with an incorrect charger, or charging for too long;
Shorting the terminals, or using the pack with equipment not designed for it;
Reversing charge polarity. Use only the proper charger. If this is tampered with or another charger is used,
permanent damage may result;
Submersing the battery in water, or attempting to open the battery casing.
H After storage, the battery should be returned to room temperature before use. It may first function at reduced
capacity, but should return to full capacity after several complete charge/discharge cycles.
H Replace the pack if charge life becomes very short.
DISPOSAL OF YOUR ELECTRONIC AND ELECTRIC EQUIPMENT
Products with the symbol (crossed-out wheeled bin) cannot be disposed as household waste. Electronic and
Electric Equipment should be recycled at a facility capable of handling these items and their waste byproducts.

BATTERY CHARGE
1. Insert the DC plug from the PA-42
AC Adapter into the DC jack on the
bottom side of the CD-34 Desktop
Rapid Charger, then plug the PA-42
AC Adapter into the AC line outlet.
2. Turn the transceiver “off”, then insert
the transceiver into the CD-34 Desk-
top Rapid Charger while aligning the slots of the battery pack with the guides in the nest of the CD-34;
refer to the illustration below for details on proper positioning of the battery pack.
3. If the transceiver is inserted correctly, the LED indicator will glow red. A fully-discharged pack will be
charged completely in approximately 2 hours.
4. The LED indicator will change to green when charging is nearing completion. The
battery pack becomes fully
charged approximately 30 minutes later.
5. When charging is completed, remove the transceiver from the CD-34
Desktop Rapid Charger,
and unplug the PA-42 AC
Adapter from the AC line
outlet.
Align the slots of the battery
pack with the guides in the
nest of the CD-34 Desktop
Rapid Charger.
