Charging a battery
Before using your transceiver, you must ensure that the supplied battery is fully charged.
You may use an AC–DC or DC–DC charger with the battery. The AC–DC charger (Type
3121) uses a universal AC mains input of 90–264 V AC. The DC–DC battery charger
(Type 3122) may be powered from any 12–60 V DC source, for example, from a vehicle
12 V DC outlet, or from a 24 V vehicle battery.
The Codan battery chargers are specially designed for low-noise operation, so receiver
performance remains optimal while charging the battery via the front panel. You can
continue to use your transceiver during battery charging.

To charge a battery:
1 Do one of the following:
• If the battery is attached to the transceiver, use cable 08-06215-001 to connect
the output of the charger to the 19-way connector on the front panel of the
transceiver.
• If the battery is detached from the transceiver, use cable 08-06214-001 to
connect the output of the charger to the 6-way connector on the top of the
battery pack.
1 Connect the charger to an appropriate power source.
CAUTION
Charging is recommended between 0 and 40°C. The battery will not
commence charging if the temperature is at or above 40°C. If charging is
already in progress, and the temperature rises to 50°C, charging will be
stopped automatically.
CAUTION
To prevent damage to the battery, Codan recommends the use of the
Codan battery chargers to charge the battery pack.
WARNING
The battery pack should be charged with the connector facing upward and
the vents clear of obstructions so that any gas created during the charging
process is released.
CAUTION
Provide clear notification that charging is underway. Ensure there is
adequate ventilation around the battery during charging.
NOTE It will take approximately 16 seconds for charging to start.
