Preparing Your Radio for Use

This section provides simple instructions to prepare
your radio for use.

Charging the Battery

Warning: To avoid a possible explosion:
• Do not replace the battery in any area
labeled hazardous atmosphere.
• Do not discard batteries in a fire.
The Motorola-approved battery shipped with your
radio is uncharged. Prior to using a new battery,
charge it for a minimum of 16 hours to ensure
optimum capacity and performance. For a list of
Motorola-authorized batteries and chargers available
for use with your radio, see
86.
Note: When charging a battery attached to a radio,
turn the radio off to ensure a full charge.
To charge the battery, place the battery (with or
without the radio) in a Motorola-approved charger.
The LED on the charger indicates the charging
progress; see the charger user guide.
