Charging the Battery
The Motorola-approved battery shipped with your radio is
uncharged. Prior to using a new battery, charge it for a minimum
of 16 hours to ensure optimum capacity and performance.
For a list of Motorola-authorized batteries available for use
with your radio, see Accessories on page 65.
Note: When charging a battery attached to your radio, turn
your radio off to ensure a full charge.
Battery Charger
To charge the battery, place the battery, with or without your
radio, in a Motorola-approved charger. The charger’s LED
indicates the charging progress; see your charger’s user guide.
For a list of chargers, see Accessories on page 65.
Attaching the Battery‡
With your radio turned off, slide the battery into your radio’s
frame until the bottom latch clicks into place.
To avoid a possible explosion:
• DO NOT replace the battery in any area
labeled “hazardous atmosphere”.
• DO NOT discard batteries in a fire.
