How to Charge
1. Plug the AC adapter into an AC outlet and connect the cable to
the DC jack on the back of the charger. The indicator light will blink
orange, indicating it is ready to charge.
2. Insert the battery or the radio into the charger, ensuring good
contact with the charging terminals. The indicator light will turn red
to indicate charging.
3. It takes approximately 2–5 hours to fully charge the battery. When
the lamp turns green, charging is complete. Remove the battery or
radio from the charger.
If the radio is on during charging, the lamp will not turn green
to show the fully charged status. The radio must be off for the
charger to indicate correct battery status.

The charger and battery have matching notches so you can charge
the battery on its own, which is practical if you have two batteries.
This way, you can charge one battery while still using your radio.
The radio should be turned off during the charge cycle.
