Note:
Purchase an additional battery tray and extra batteries so that you will always have
spare charged batteries available.
Storage
It is normal for any battery cell to lose charge even when it is not being used.
Before storing the radio for 6 months or more:
• Fully charge the batteries to help ensure that the cells do not experience a
deep discharge while they are in storage.
• Remove the Battery Tray from the radio and then remove the batteries from
the Battery Tray to help prevent internal current leakage that can result in cor-
rosion.
• Store the batteries in a cool, dry place to further minimize current leakage.
After storage, multiple charge/recharge cycles may be required before maximum
capacity is restored.
