Charging the Battery Pack
Your marine radio is powered by a specially designed Ni-MH
battery pack.
• Before operating the RTP1000, charge the Ni-MH battery pack
for 16 hours without interruption with the Adapter.
Place the RTP1000 in the Cradle.
Make sure your radio is OFF.
Plug one end of the AC adapter into the
wall outlet and the other end into the
Adapter jack on the back of the RTP1000.
Charge the battery for 16 hours.
• The charger will not overcharge the battery pack. After 16 hours
without interruption, charging is completed.
• Be sure to replace the rubber cap after charging in order to
secure the waterproof seal.
• The radio will not charge the battery while on and receiving
incoming voice traffic.
• When you mount the Cradle on your boat, use the DC adapter
instead.
• The jack is for charging only. If the battery level is low, the radio
needs to be charged before use.
