BATTERY INFORMATION

Charging the Battery

If a battery is new or its charge level is very
low, you need to charge it before you can use
it.
Note: Batteries are shipped uncharged from the
factory. Always charge a new battery 14 to
16 hours before initial use, regardless of
the status indicated by the charger.
To charge the battery:
Place the battery, with or without the radio, in
the charger. The charger LED indicates the
charging progress:

* Remove the battery from the charger. Clean
battery contacts with isopropyl alcohol applied to
a soft cloth. Place the battery back in the charger.
If the LED indicator continues to flash red,
replace the battery.

charge to 90%.
