BATTERY INFORMATION
Charging Operation
The battery pack is not charged at the factory; please charge it before use.
Charging the battery pack for the rst time or after extended storage (more than 2 moths) may not
bring the battery pack to its normal operating capacity. The peak operating capacity of the battery
will be reached after two or three charge/discharge cycles. The battery pack life is over when its
operating time decreases even though it is fully and correctly charged and should be replaced.
Charger Applied
Please use the specic charger provided by our company. Other chargers may cause explosion and
personal injury. After installing the battery pack, if the radio displays low battery with red ashing
lamp or voice prompt, please charge the battery.
Notice for Charging Battery
Do not short the battery terminals or throw the battery into re. Never attempt to remove the casing ▼
from the battery pack, we show no responsibility on any results caused by modifying freely without
permission of our factory.
The ambient temperature should be between 5▼℃and 40℃while charging is in progress. Charging
outside this range may not fully charge the battery.
Always switch OFF the transceiver before charging, otherwise it will interfere with correct charging.▼
To insure correct charging, do not cut off the power or take out the battery during charging.▼
Do not recharge the battery pack if it is already fully charged. This may shorten the life of the▼
battery pack or damage the battery pack.
Do not charge the battery or transceiver if it is damp. Dry it before charging to avoid danger.▼

BATTERY INFORMATION
WARNING: If the battery terminals short circuit, it will generate a lot of heat and possibly a fire.
When using or storing the radio (or just the battery), keep keys and other metal objects away from
the battery terminal contacts.
How to Charge
Plug the AC adapter into the AC outlet, and then plug1.
the cable of the AC adapter into the DC jack located
on the back of the charger. The indicator lights orange
(1s) and then goes out indicating it is ready to charge.
Plug the battery or transceiver equipped with battery 2.
Into the charger. Make sure that the battery terminals
In contact with the charging terminals well. The
indicator light turns to twinkling red, meaning pre-
charging begins.
After pre-charging for about 5 minutes, the indicator3.
light will stop twinkling, meaning charging begins.
It takes approximately 4 hours to fully charge the battery. When the lamp lights green, the4.
charging is nished. Remove the battery or the transceiver equipped with battery from socket.

BATTERY INFORMATION
NOTE: When charging a power-on transceiver equipped with battery, the indicating lamp will not
turn into green to show the fully charged status. Only when the transceiver is switched off, can the
lamp indicate normally. The transceiver consumes energy when it is power-on, and the charger can
not detect the voltage when the battery has been fully charged. So the charger will charge battery
constant voltage and fail to indicate correctly whether the battery has been charged fully.
Charging Status Indicator Status
Standby (Self-examine lights orange 1second when power on) None
Pre-charging (Pre-charging stage) Red light twinkles for about 5 minutes

BATTERY INFORMATION
Normal Charging Tips
Self- Examination:1. When charging, orange light twinkles for 1 second and goes out, which
means the charger has passed its self-examination and it can charge the battery normally. If
the light remains orange or the red light twinkles, it means the charger can not pass its self-
examination or charge the battery.
Trickle Pre-Charging:2. If red light twinkles when battery is inserted into the charger, it means the
remnant voltage is low and the charger is trickle-charging the battery (Pre-Charging Status). The
charger will automatically turn into normal charging when the battery reaches a certain electric
quantity, and if the red light stops twinkling, it means the remnant voltage meets a certain electric
quantity, and the charger will charge the battery normally.
NOTE: Trickle charging (Pre-Charging Status) time can not beyond 30 minutes. If the indicating
lamp still twinkles after 30-minute trickle-charging, it means that the charger can not charge the
battery. Please check whether the battery or charger is damaged.
How to Store the Battery
If the battery needs to be stored, keep it in status of 80% discharged or higher.1.
It should be kept in low temperature and dry environment.2.
Keep it away from hot places and direct sunlight.3.
