Battery Information
To maximize the battery life and performance, and to ensure
the highest performance and longest life cycle, you should
properly use the battery pack in accordance with following
simple rules:
• If you use a non-TTI supplied charger, the battery might
be damaged.
• Turn off the radio when charging the battery.
• A room temperature of 25°C is desirable to store and
charge the battery.
• Do not charge a cold battery at around 10°C or below.
This will make the battery inefficient.
• Do not charge a hot battery at above 35°C. This will
reduce the life cycle of battery.
• A new battery can be stored up to two years with no
harmful effect to the life cycle of the battery if stored
at a cool and dry place.
• Do not charge a fully-charged battery to get an
extra
boost
.
This will significantly reduce its life cycle.
• Our batteries and chargers have been designed to be
