ATTENTION (U.S.A. Only): The RBRC Recycle seal found on Smartrunk lithium-ion (Li- Ion) battery packs indicates Smartrunk‘s voluntary participation in an industry program to collect and recycle Li-Io batteries after their operating life has expired. The RBRC program is an alternative to disposing Li-Io batteries with your regular refuse or in municipal waste streams, which is illegal in some areas.
UNPACKING AND CHECKING EQUIPMENT Note: The following unpacking instructions are for use by your SmarTrunk dealer, an authorized SmarTrunk service facility, or the factory. Carefully unpack the transceiver. We recommend that you identify the items listed in the following table before discarding the packing material. If any items are missing or have been damaged during shipment, file a claim with the carrier immediately.
SMARTRUNK ST-SBP18 SMART BATTERY PACK RECOMMENDATIONS If not charged or used correctly, Lithium Polymer batteries may ignite without warning and cause serious injury and property damage. If you are unable to follow the safety recommendations then do not use them Do not charge Lithium Polymer cells on or near combustible materials including paper, plastic, carpets, vinyl, leather, or wood.

battery and connectors for even the smallest damage. CAUTION: cells may be hot! Do not allow the electrolyte to get into eyes or on skin. Wash affected areas immediately if they come into contact with electrolyte. Do not alter or modify connectors or wires of a Lithium Polymer battery pack.
CHARGING BATTERY FROM USB PORT Your radio includes a built-in battery charger trough the USB radio connector. This feature allows the user to charge the battery with any USB cable connected to a source that can supply current for example PCs, USB ports, USB chargers, etc.
SMARTRUNK BC-D01 SMART BATTERY CHARGER Never leave the charger unattended. If you will be away from the charger then leave it unconnected from the battery. Charge all batteries on concrete, at least 10 feet (3 meters) away from combustible materials. Do not use if flammable liquids are in the area.

The Smart Battery Charger is a device specially designed to recharge SBP- 18 battery pack compatible with ST-2112 SDR radio. This device has enough internal intelligence to exchange information with the battery under charge and improves charging regulation to extend battery life as much as possible, keeping risk out of battery damage by wrong recharging process.

Battery guides Multi level indicator Remaining Charge LED Remaining Recharge time indicator 10. Battery status indicator Operation: Load the battery pack SBP-18 alone using the battery guides (6) or just insert the complete radio ST-2112 with the battery on it. As soon as you load the battery, Charge LED (8) will let you know the charging process has started.

to complete the re-charging process. This is an estimation which may not be totally accurate because sometimes the battery temperature ask for slower charging rate, adjusting the estiation on the way. Each led on the multy level indicator when the TIME LEFT LED is on, represents 20 minutes of charging time to complete the battery.
Depending on the DC input voltage and the temperature, a complete process will demand between 3 and 4 hours. If the radio is on during the charging process, the time will extend, depending on the radio activity. Installing/ Removing the LI-Ion Battery Pack Only use the ST-SBP18 or ST-BP18 battery packs with this transceiver.
