TP9100 Battery Care
and Charging Guide
This guide explains how to charge your Tait
TP9100 battery as well as care for it, to
ensure maximum performance and
prolonged battery life.
Note: The instructions in this guide apply to
both the desktop charger and the multi-
charger.
Caution: Your battery is designed and
manufactured to the highest standard. Use
only genuine Tait chargers and battery packs
with your TP9100 portable radio.
Charging the battery before
first use
Before using your battery for the first time,
you must charge it for 14 hours. Remove the
battery from the charger only when the
'Ready' LED glows green. See "Charging the
battery".
This first charge is important because it
prepares ('primes') the battery for use.
(Subsequent charges should be complete in
two hours or less.) The battery may take
two to three shifts (charge/discharge cycles)
to reach maximum capacity.
