Charging the Battery Pack using the Battery Charger (SAD-25)
Using the supplied battery charger (SAD-25), it takes about 9 hours* to charge the SBR14LI battery pack fully.
*Depending on the battery status, the charging time might be increased
1. Referring to the figure at the right, connect the
battery charger plugs.
When the battery is being charged, the TX/BUSY
Indicator of the A-band lights red, and “Now
Charging” is displayed. The charge level is indicated by a bar graph.
2. When charging is completed, the display will
change to indicate “CHGFUL” and the TX/BUSY
Indicator will light green.
While the transceiver power is ON, “
” will ap-
pear on the display.
In the USA Version, the TX/BUSY LED is not lit when charging or when charging is complete.
When the charge is complete, the transceiver turns OFF after 3 minutes.
• If “CHGERR” appears on the LCD during the charging and the battery pack is not charged
after a lapse of 10 or more hours, stop charging the battery pack immediately. The battery
pack is presumed to be at the end of its service life, or defective. In this case, replace the
battery pack with a new one.
• Charge the battery pack within the temperature range from +41°F to +95°F (+5°C to
+35°C).
Charging the Battery Pack using the Rapid Charger (CD-41)
The optional Rapid Charger (CD-41) requires about 5 hours to charge the SBR-14LI
battery pack.
1. Insert the DC plug from the SAD-25 into the DC jack on the CD-41 rear panel, then
plug the SAD-25 into the AC line outlet.
2. Place the transceiver with battery pack attached or the battery pack alone into the
CD-41, charging will start and the red LED (CHARGING) of the CD-41 will light up.
3. When charging is complete, the red “CHARGING” indicator turns OFF and then the
green “FULL” indicator will light.
It may take some time for the green LED to turn ON after the red LED turns OFF.
●Approximate Operating Time and Remaining Charge Level Indication
Approximate operating time for the transceiver with the fully charged battery pack or
new AA alkaline batteries is as follows:
Band in Use
Digital: OFF
Amateur Band
144 MHz Band Approx. 9.5 hours Approx. 4.5 hours Approx. 12 hours
430 MHz Band Approx. 8 hours Approx. 4 hours Approx. 11 hours

Formatting a microSD Memory Card
Format a new microSD memory card following the steps below before use.
• Formatting a microSD memory card erases all data saved on it. If you are going to format
the microSD memory card you are using, be sure to check the data saved on it before
formatting.
• The microSD memory cards used in other devices may not be recognized by the FT5DR/
DE, or it may take an abnormally long time to read or write. So normally, they may not
be useable. Reading and writing of the microSD cards may be improved by using the SD
memory card formatter provided by the SD Association. The SD memory card formatter
can be downloaded from this URL (https://www.sdcard.org/downloads/formatter/).
