BATTERY INFORMATION
Initial Use
New batteries are not charged fully in the factory. Please charge the
battery for 5 hours at least before first use. This initial charge
pre-conditions the battery for full capacity. Failure to charge fully may
shorten the life span of the battery. Recharge the battery immediately
once it goes flat as it could get damaged if left very flat for long periods.
The maximum battery capacity and performance is achieved after three
full charge-discharge cycles.
Battery Pack
Please only use a battery which is approved by the manufacturer.
Unauthorized batteries may cause failure of protection circuitry and result
in bodily injury and property damage.
Safety Information
1)Do not throw the battery into fire!
2)The battery should be recycled and disposed of correctly.
3)Never attempt to disassemble the battery pack.
Notices
1)Only charge the battery, when the ambient temperature is
between 5℃- 40℃.
2)Please turn off the radio when the battery is charging. Using the
radio during charging will affect the normal charging of the
battery pack and will lengthen the charge time.
3)During charging, do not plug in/pull out the power supply or the
battery frequently, it would affect battery charging.
4)Do not charge when the battery or radio is wet. Please dry it with
a soft cloth before charging.
5)Do not use the charger, cable or battery if it is damaged, cracked
or frayed in any way.
6)The battery life is over when the operating time is obviously
shorter than normal even if it’s fully and correctly charged.
Please then replace
To Prolong Battery Life
1)Battery performance will degrade when the current temperature is
below 0℃. A spare battery may be necessary in cold weather. Please
keep the cold batteries, as these batteries will work under room
temperature.
2)If the battery contact is dusty, it may influence its normal use or normal
charge.
Battery Storage
1)Fully charge a battery before storing for a long time, to avoid battery
damage caused by over-discharge.
2)Recharge the Li-Ion battery after 6 months as the battery will lose small
amounts of charge even when not in use. This regular maintenance will
avoid the battery capacity reducing which is caused by
over-discharging.
3)When storing your battery, keep it in a cool and dry place under room
temperature.
