Recycling Or Disposal Of Batteries; Charging Your Battery - Motorola P040 User Manual

Recycling or Disposal of
Batteries
At the end of its useful life, the NiCd battery
can be recycled. However, recycling facilities may
not be available in all areas.
Motorola endorses and encourages the recycling of
all re-chargeable batteries. Contact your local
Motorola dealer for further information.

Charging your Battery

When the battery level is very low, a blinking red
LED indicator lights up during transmit mode, and
an alert tone sounds. You will need to recharge the
battery before you can continue to use your radio.
Place the radio with the battery attached or the
battery alone in the charger. The charger's LED
indicator will indicate the charging progress.
NOTE: Since new batteries or batteries that have
not been used for several months could
prematurely indicate full charge (solid green
LED), charge the batteries for 14 to 16 hours
prior to initial use to achieve optimal
performance.
