You can check your radioÕs battery status by
pressing the programmed Battery Gauge button
(battery status is shown by the LED indicator).
If the Battery Gauge indicator does NOT
appear, this indicates that the battery may not be
a genuine Motorola product.
When the battery level is very low, you need to
recharge the battery before you can continue to
use your radio.
1. Place the radio with the battery attached or the
battery alone in the charger.
2. The chargerÕs LED would indicate the charging
progress.
Because new batteries or batteries that
have not been used for several months could
prematurely indicate full charge (solid green
LED), charge the batteries for 14 to 16 hours
prior to initial use to achieve optimal perfor-
mance.

capacity.
