ature range. For maximum performance, it is recommended that the charger be operated at room temperature
— a temperature range between 18°C to 25°C (64°F to 77°F).
The charger can consume up to 6 A at 120 VAC, 3A at 240 VAC. Check to ensure the mains circuit supplying
the charger is adequate for this loading (especially if several chargers are being powered from the same
circuit). After unpacking the unit:
• Visually check the charger for damage.
• Install the IEC power cord and apply power.
IMPORTANT
All charge indicators flash momentarily at power up to indicate that the charger is ready for operation.
If you choose to wall mount the charger, detailed installation instructions are included in the Omnii 6-Slot
Battery Charger ST3006 Quick Start Guide (PN 8000204) included with the charger kit. Be sure to locate the
charger in an area where there is no risk of injury to persons walking in the vicinity.

Operator Controls

The gang charger does not have operator controls or a power switch. There is no dedicated indicator light to
show that the charger is powered, but the charge slot LEDs will light up briefly when first applying power.

Charge Indicators

Each battery charge slot is equipped with four LEDs to indicate the charge status of the battery. When the
Omnii batteries are inserted in the charger, the colour and behaviour of the LEDs associated with the charging
bays in use indicate the status of the charge.

Charging Batteries

• Install the battery with the battery contacts facing the charger. Slide the battery between the guide rails
until it lightly latches in place.
The 4-LED bar for the battery bay shows 25% charger per LED. A flashing green LED shows charging is under
way. The LED directly below the slot in which a battery is inserted lights up immediately. If the battery tempera-
ture is outside 0°C to 40°C (32°F to 104°F), the LED flashes yellow until the temperature is acceptable. A fully
discharged battery will normally take 4.5 hours to charge. At full capacity, it turns solid green.
When the battery is fully charged, the charger stops applying power; the battery cannot be overcharged if left in
the charger slot.
Use IEC-320 C13 power cords approved by Motorola, with the ground pin con-
nected to a proper earth-grounded receptacle. Check with a qualified electrician
if you are uncertain of your receptacle grounding.
