Connecting The Antenna - Radio Shack BTX-123 Owner's Manual

Follow these steps to charge the
battery pack.
1. If the battery pack is attached to
the transceiver and the trans-
ceiver is on, turn it off.
2. Plug the adapter's barrel plug
into the CHRG jack on the side
of the battery pack. Then plug
the adapter's power module into
a standard AC outlet.
Warning: Do not use an AC adapt-
er's polarized plug with an exten-
sion cord, receptacle, or other outlet
unless the blades can be fully in-
serted to prevent blade exposure.
Note: A rechargeable battery pack
lasts longer and delivers more pow-
er if you let it fully discharge once a
month. To do this, simply use the
transceiver until the BUSY/TX/BATT
indicator on the front of the trans-
ceiver lights yellow when you press
PUSH TO TALK. Then fully charge
the battery pack.

Important! At the end of a recharge-
able battery pack's useful life, it must
be recycled or disposed of properly.
Contact your local, county, or state
hazardous waste management au-
thorities for information on recycling
or disposal programs in your area.
Some options that might be avail-
able are: municipal curb-side collec-
tion, drop-off boxes at retailers such
as your local RadioShack store, re-
cycling collection centers, and mail-
back programs.
