Note: Remove batteries before storing your radio for
extended periods. Batteries corrode over time and may
cause permanent damage to your radio. Exercise caution
when handling batteries that are leaking. Dispose of
exhausted batteries at a designated battery disposal unit
and not in the household waste.
The Battery Meter
The battery meter located in the top left hand corner of the
display indicates how much battery power you have remaining.
The radio will power off when the voltage drops below a
predetermined level, to protect the rechargeable battery. When
the battery meter has one segment left
, the radio chirps
after releasing and every 10 minutes.
You can also charge the battery pack separately from the radio,
as follows:
• Plug the wire on the AC power supply into the plug on the
desk stand.
• Plug the AC power supply into a standard wall outlet.
• Insert the battery pack into the desk stand charging pocket
using the charging pocket insert provided.
• Make sure that the contacts on the side of the battery pack
align with the metal contacts in the pocket of the desk stand.
The red light will glow if they have been properly inserted.
• The radio/battery will be fully charged within 14 hours.
Charging Status
The solid red light indicator shows that the radio and/or the
NiCd battery is charging.
Note: When moving between hot and cold environments, do not
charge the battery until the battery temperature acclimates
(usually about 20 minutes).
A depleted battery will recharge to full capacity within 14 hours.
Note: For optimal battery life, remove the radio or battery from
the charger within 16 hours. Do not store the radio or the
battery in the charger.
